AMG C63 Front Mount Heat Exchanger w/Rock Guard W205
Product Description Integral to the new 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged engine's power output is not only the turbochargers but the charge air (compressed air) cooling system. A system to cool the charge air is required because when the turbochargers compress air, it heats up. For optimum performance, this air needs to be cooled again. Cooler air going into the engine means much denser oxygenation and improved knock resistance, two key factors when seeking to maintain or improve power. This cooling system consists of two charge air coolers which cool the charge air. A water circuit that flows through a pump, into the charge air coolers, and into a heat exchanger, which then cools the water that has been used by the charge air coolers to cool the compressed air. As boost pressure is increased, more heat is introduced into the charge air cooling system. The stock charge air cooling system works very well for stock boost levels; however, once boost levels are raised, it can struggle to keep c
