Vivid Racing VR Performance High Flow Intercoolers Porsche 991 Turbo / Turbo S 2014-2018 VR-991TT-108

Intercoolers are one of the most important parts of a turbocharger system to keep it running as efficient as possible.  On a Porsche 911, the intercoolers are essential to the vehicles performance.  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, tenth in your 0-60 time, or improve your 1/2 mile mph run under intense full throttle conditions, an intercooler upgrade is the perfect add-on to the rest of the vehicle.

With a successful line of intercoolers for the Porsche 996 and 997 Turbo, VR Performance has developed this high flow Porsche 991 Turbo intercooler kit.  The intercooler incorporates CNC billet aluminum end tanks which are 3D machined to provide the ultimate flow and more capacity to the bar and plate core.  The 1 piece end tanks have integrated machined fittings so you can use factory boost hoses.  The end tanks and core are TIG welded together which will handle even the most extreme conditions.  The core is roughly 90mm (3.5 inches) which allows for easy installation with slight modifications to the factory intercooler ducting.  This provides a nice and clean OEM type finish.  These intercoolers can support up to 1200 horsepower!

Keeping all variables the same, we tested these intercoolers on a 2014 Porsche 991 Turbo using an all wheel drive Mustang Dyno.  The car was running basic bolt-ons, 91 octane, tested in 3rd gear, and had appropriate fans to simulate driving conditions.  The intercoolers helped keep a consistant gain of 35 wheel horsepower once the turbos were spooled up between 3800 and 6000 rpm.  Its peak horsepower gain was 17whp.  Torque was greatly improved with the upgraded intercoolers seeing a massive gain of 50 ft/lbs under test conditions at 4300 rpm.  Peak gain was roughly 33 ft/lbs of torque.  The full potential of the upgraded intercoolers can be experienced under competition driving conditions.

VR Performance is, as the name suggests, the performance division of the Vivid Racing brand. Under the VR Performance line, we offer everything from blow-off valves, shift knobs, and brake lines to lowering links, springs, headers, and complete cat-back exhaust systems. Everything you could possibly need to amp the performance and riding quality of your vehicle is available through the VR Performance store. Born from a passion for going further and getting the most out of our vehicles, the VR Performance line will unleash the true potential of your ride in terms of aesthetics, power, and functionality.

VR Performance Lowering Links

VR Performance is well-known for its high-quality lowering links, which work with your vehicle's factory air suspension to seamlessly lower its ride height. The lowering links are fully adjustable and replace the stock ones which control the air ride. By changing the linkage length of the air ride sensors, this gives you a much more desired ride height in all modes. Best of all, these links snap right in place of the non-adjustable ones and fit in seamlessly for a simple installation process that is also easily reversible. These durable metal lowering links give your ride the perfect lowered look without that pesky wheel gap and delivers a smooth performance with the OEM system. Boasting a rigid construction, this product was made to withstand the elements of both daily and more spirited driving to deliver maximum performance for a long time.

VR Performance Exhausts

VR Performance's latest release of cat-back exhausts is nothing less than exceptional. We offer a series of titanium and stainless-steel variants for a wide range of makes and models. Our highly sought after Valvetronic exhausts are designed to specifically increase the sound and performance of your particular vehicle. Crafted from high-quality materials, these exhausts feature brilliant robotic TIG welding as well as smooth bends to deliver optimal flow and power gains. And, thanks to the cutting-edge Valvetronic design, your OEM valves are reused so you can change the tone of your vehicle with just the push of a button. Electronic valves are placed on the outlet of the muffler which control the sound so you can go from mild to wild in seconds. When closed, the exhaust flow goes through the single outer tip which is quieter. However, when the valve is opened, the exhaust goes straight out to deliver an exhilarating tone that demands attention.

VR Aero is a division of Vivid Racing that offers top-grade, durable aerodynamic products that elevate the look of your ride while also proving to be completely functional in improving overall performance. Whether you are looking for individual components or a complete body kit, we have you covered with quality materials that will last for years and years to come.

No matter how much horsepower you have under the hood, first impressions matter and that means how your car looks plays a big role in the way people view it. Upgrading and customizing the appearance of your car helps set it apart from the average and will turn heads everywhere you go; even the subtlest changes like a set of side skirts can sometimes make a huge difference. If you want to go all out, though, investing in a complete body kit can give your car that "fast look" at merely a standstill while also helping it zoom past the competition on the track.

VR Carbon Aero Parts

VR carbon aero parts are crafted from 2x2 3K twill weave for a construction that not only looks incredible but is also incredibly strong. What's more, pre-preg dry carbon fiber has been proven to be ultra-lightweight and extremely durable to last for the long run. VR Aero's dry carbon parts represent the highest quality version of carbon fiber products on the market. It weighs 60 percent less than the "wet" carbon method and is also significantly stronger.

VR Aero components feature a UV protective glossy clearcoat to ensure the luster does not fade from harmful rays. The UV-resistant resin and pre-preg forming prevent hazing so your carbon parts will shine for years and years to come. And, thanks to 3D scanning and CAD engineering, you can rest assured that the VR Aero parts you get deliver OEM-style manufacturing down to the fit and finish. Installation is super quick and easy without any modifications to your vehicle.
