The Extreme Turbo Systems 1000-10-IC-013 intercooler is designed specifically for those seeking improved performance in their Saab 9-3 SS/SC models. This unit showcases a robust construction featuring smooth-flowing cast tanks and a highly efficient bar and plate core, ensuring that your vehicle maintains optimal temperatures during operation.
One of the standout features of this intercooler is its 100% vacuum-brazed core, which is built to last. With louvered external fins and a finely designed internal fin pack, it maximizes heat transfer. The internal fins are thoughtfully offset and staggered, allowing every air molecule to effectively "scrub" against the fins, leading to an impressive efficiency rating of 82%. Customers have noted that even at 300 HP, the pressure drop is a mere 0.75 psi, demonstrating its exceptional performance.
With a high flow rate of 1080 CFM, this intercooler can handle significant boost levels, accommodating up to 710 crank HP. It's engineered to fit into the stock location, making installation straightforward without the need for extensive modifications.
Durability is a key aspect of the 1000-10-IC-013. The rugged vacuum-brazed bar and plate core can withstand impacts from debris that might damage other types of intercoolers. Complementing this is the custom cast Aluminum 356 end tanks, which are meticulously deburred, shot peened, and TIG welded to ensure a secure and reliable connection. Each unit undergoes a thorough visual inspection and is pressure tested to 35 psi before shipment, providing peace of mind for users.
Many users have shared their satisfaction with the Extreme Turbo Systems intercooler. One customer mentioned, "I installed this intercooler on my 2005 Saab 9-3, and the performance difference was noticeable right away. The drop in temperature during hard runs is impressive!" Another noted, "The fit was perfect, and the quality is evident. Highly recommend if you're looking to boost your Saab's performance without compromising reliability."
