Hilux performance upgrades are ideally suited for those drivers who want to enhance their turbo for more power while lowering their intake temperatures for optimal tuning potential. Whether you’re using your Hilux for towing purposes or you’re prone to taking the road less travelled and require increased performance, Performance Diesel Intercoolers have the experience and skills to equip you.

What You Should Know About Hilux Intercoolers

Present-day diesel engines are different from what they were. Due to the higher power, emissions and efficiency demands, today’s turbocharged engines are intercooled.

• Installing a customised Hilux intercooler gives cooler inlet air and makes it more responsive, with increase torque and power. Gains of power of between five and ten percent over factory-fitted intercoolers alone and a decrease in temperature of 35 to 90 degrees. The biggest the difference occurs in conjunction with other modifications where more fuel and boost is added and increases in mass air density is desirable.

• All turbocharged vehicles benefit from intercoolers or modifications of them. The goal is for the diesel engine to achieve its power without excessively high combustion temperatures (often measured in the exhaust as Exhaust Gas Temperture) and our upgraded intercoolers will typically drop these temperatures by 50-100degC.

What Sets Us Apart Regarding Intercoolers

We’ve been involved in the industry for several years and saw an opportunity to maximise the potential of diesel engines. The goal was to increase power, whether only by 20 or 200 percent while keeping the exhaust gas temperature as low as possible. Custom installations demonstrated positive results, and as a result, we formed our company out of a need for a better product.

• Our kits are suitable for high load demands which are ideal for towing purposes. However, our intercoolers meet the natural desire for increased performance due to the largest cores and custom moulded end tanks, among other enhancements.

• The optimised piping that we use is ideal for power and reduced lag. Additionally, we only use stainless steel piping due to its low heat transfer and it’s easy to clean too. It works far better than aluminium, withstanding the vibrations of diesel engines which are more likely to travel on uneven surfaces.

• The intercoolers we have available online are custom fit with the core size maximised for efficiency and positioned to get draw through from the main engine fan, therefore, cools in both high and low speeds. As a result, your vehicle will drive as it should, even on a cold morning.
