AMS Alpha Front Mount Intercooler | 2009-2015 Nissan R35 GT-R

AMS Alpha Front Mount Intercooler

We designed the Alpha GT-R Race Intercooler to be the best-performing, most efficient GT-R intercooler on the market. It certainly had to be in order to meet the requirements of our stable of World Record setting, 8 second Alpha GT-R’s! If your GT-R produces in excess of 900 horsepower or if you drive in a hot weather climate, the Alpha GT-R Race Intercooler is your best option for producing power safely and efficiently. After testing, re-testing and a host of refinements, this race-proven design is perfected and now available for your Nissan GT-R.

To effectively reduce charged air temperatures, we employed a vertical airflow design for maximum cooling effect with a massive 22"x14"x4.5" bar-and-plate core offering 92.5% more air volume than a stock pair of GT-R intercoolers!  The core offers up to twice the fin density of most intercoolers currently on the market.  This allows for more contact with cool, dense air and it does so with virtually no boost pressure drop (less than 1 psi) proliferating the most ground pounding power output you can get for your GT-R!

Our engineering team designed the Alpha GT-R Intercooler end tanks with extremely smooth features and geometry for the best flow resulting in maximum horsepower.  Designed using Solidworks 3D CAD software, these end tanks have improved flow over boxy sheet metal end tanks found on other intercoolers.  These large end tanks feature 3-inch CNC billet inlet and outlet ports to provide a smooth, tapered transition from intake to intercooler.  Our team went even further by computer designing precisely molded, custom silicone couplers to provide perfect fitment and optimized geometry for improved airflow volume and velocity – providing unmatched power and response.

This intercooler kit takes full advantage of the GT-R’s available frontal area while improving functionality of the stock intercooler shroud.  For even better channeling of air, a supplied bridge plate and shroud plates create a tight seal surrounding the core. This seal ensures that cool air entering the shroud is funneled through the core. The plates stop air from escaping through the sides, above and below the intercooler maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of the intercooler core.  These are features often overlooked by the competition.  All of this in a package that does NOT require cutting of the factory crash beam or bumper cover.
