Wagner Tuning EVO1 Performance Intercooler Kit - Volkswagen T5.1/T5.2 TDI
Wagner Tuning is a German performance engineering brand known for bar and plate intercooler cores developed with CAD modelling and CFD flow analysis. The EVO1 kit for the Volkswagen T5.1/T5.2 TDI replaces the restrictive factory core with a larger, more efficient unit designed to cut charge air temperatures and reduce pressure drop compared to the OEM intercooler.
This listing covers the Volkswagen T5.1 TDI (2003-2009) and Volkswagen T5.2 TDI (2009-2016) van and bus range across the 1.9 TDI and 2.5 TDI engines fitted to the T5.1, and the 2.0 TDI engines fitted to the T5.2. It is a plug and play replacement using the stock plumbing, with no cutting or bumper removal required.
