This is a direct replacement for the original-OEN charge cooler

 

The charge cooler was introduced to the Esprit for the SE models , mechanical changes over the Giugiaro 910S (HC) turbo 2.2-litre 

 

This design uses  tube and fin technology instead of the heaver wall bar and plate that holds heat around engine bay.

 

by using  tube and fin this will hold the temperature of the charge to as close to the ambient as possible, will result in a more dense fuel air charge. This will increase the volumetric efficiency creating more power and torque.  So we come on to the new uprated charge cooler from Alunox.

 

Installation is very easy with all the hose connections being in the same position as the original unit. 

This is a direct fit to the engine bay There is no cutting or any modification.

 

Driving experience

We can only comment from the driving experience at the moment. Also this was only tested with the standard pump and radiator. You can still feel better torque on boost which doesn’t drop as fast at as the revs climb.

 

After driving hard, the charge cooler feels cool to the touch when putting your hand on the top surface.

 

The unit works well with the other modifications and enhances the Alunox manifold further.

Alunox are also looking to produce a high quality aluminium front radiator to match the thermal dynamics   of the charge cooler as part of a kit. This will be updated here.
