Why Wagner Tuning
Wagner kits are designed to use factory mounting points. Competition cores use a tube and fin design that is lighter and keeps airflow open to the radiator behind it, which helps on cars where coolant temperatures climb under repeated load. A larger core than the factory unit lowers intake air temperatures, helping power delivery stay consistent rather than dropping off as heat builds. These upgrades suit cars running Stage 2 tunes and beyond, where the factory intercooler or downpipe becomes a restriction.
Choosing the Right Part
Match your chassis code and model year to the product listing before ordering: Audi 8P, 8V, 8J, 8X, B5, B8, B9 and C7; BMW E82, E88, E90-E93, F20, F30-F34, F87, G80, G81, G82, G83 and G87; Volkswagen MK5, MK6, 5N and AD1; Mercedes-Benz W176 and C117; Ford S550, LZ and MK7; Nissan R35; Renault X95; Porsche 996 and 997.1. EVO 1, EVO 2 and EVO 3 kits differ in core specification, so check which EVO level a listing covers. Downpipes are listed by diameter and catalyst type, such as 70mm, 200CPSI catted or catless. Pre-facelift and facelift versions can differ in bumper supports and sensor placement, so confirm which your car is.
Installation & What You'll Need
Installation by a professional is recommended. Most kits are designed around factory mounting points and hose routing. Decat and catless downpipes are for race and motorsport use only; road-legal exhaust rules vary by state, so check with your state authority before fitting one to a registered car. If you fit a catless downpipe or raise boost, have your tune checked to suit.
FAQ
Is the Wagner Tuning intercooler a direct fit?
Most kits use factory mounting points and hose routing, with no cutting or bumper modification. Confirm your exact model and chassis code against the listing first.
What is the difference between the Competition and EVO Series cores?
Competition kits use a lighter tube and fin core that keeps airflow open to the radiator behind it. EVO Series uses a bar and plate core for higher flow, aimed at cars running more aggressive tunes.
Are Wagner Tuning downpipes road legal?
Catted downpipes, such as the 200CPSI options, retain a catalytic converter, while catless and decat downpipes are for race and motorsport use only. Check your state's rules before fitting one to a road-registered car.
Will a Wagner intercooler need a tune?
A straight core swap usually does not, but check with your tuner. A catless downpipe or higher boost should be tuned to suit.
