VF Engineering ♛Exclusive♛ "Satin Black" Heat Exchanger



As many of you already know, the popularity of our front mount heat
exchanger is due to the fact that it's the ONLY direct mount, drop
in fitment that retains all of the factory quick-connect water fittings
and OEM mounting points. It has the largest frontal surface area, as
well as the highest number of tubes X rows which results in the best
possible cooling efficiency and recovery time during aggressive use.

What some of you may not know is that BRAND NEW this summer we
have released a LIMITED PRODUCTION (exclusive) heat exchanger in
Satin Black finish. With all the same features and specifications, this is
sure to be a top selling complimentary product to any software upgrade.




Thoroughly tested on the dyno and at the track, the enlarged surface
area and increased number of tubes X rows, along with CSF's patented
"B-Tube Technology" not only promotes faster recovery time under
demanding conditions, but also noticeably reduces IAT's to provide more
consistent power delivery.







While many companies will advertise a net gain in power with such a
product, it's important to understand that power "gains" will only be
apparent when conditions are less than ideal. With that understood,
we prefer to describe this effect as "power recovery", or improved
consistency & power delivery.

IE: Where a tuned M4 with a stock heat exchanger would make
498HP / 549TQ under absolutely ideal conditions, as demand for
cooling increases under aggressive use, those same power levels
can quickly drop by as much as 10-15HP / 5-10TQ.

The most notable result with the more efficient heat exchanger is
the ability to dramatically reduce (and even eliminate) the onset of
heat soak.

When testing our upgraded heat exchanger, back-to-back-to-back
runs show little to no deviation in power, therefore recovering
(or "gaining") that lost power for more consistent power delivery.

The improved consistency in power deliver is obvious on the dyno,
but even more important, on the street and at the track where
conditional performance is by far more noticeable from the drivers
perspective.

As more and more charge cooler and heat exchanger units continue
to sell through these summer months, we'll be sure to continue to
post more customer reviews, dyno plots, and logs as we receive them!

Thank you!

PM Sent!

Install will be approx. 3 hours for a semi-experience DIY mechanic.
If you feel confident enough to remove your front bumper, you will
have no problems with the install.

No ... but it is easy enough to lightly paint over the logo for those who
want that super stealth look, or for those who just don't like logos!

I promise we wont be the least bit offended!

Do you have any pictures of the satin black from the outside of the car? Would love to see how it looks.
