As air goes through the turbocharger, it gets very hot, very fast. With an increase in temperature, the oxygen density drops. The intercoolers help cool the air to the engine with outside air flow through the core. Allowing for denser, more oxygen rich air to get into the engine allows for more fuel to be burned which provides more power. The difference in performance can easily be related to the Porsche 911 Turbo performance between Summer and Winter seasons. Although the factory intercoolers and turbo system are designed well to produce over 500 horsepower on the Porsche 991 Turbo, there is room for improvement. A 991 Turbo or Turbo S with an exhaust, ECU tune, and other bolt-ons can reach almost 650 horsepower to the crank. Trying to achieve that extra tenth in the quarter mile, t
