How the new Porsche 992 intercooler system works
Unconventional to the typical single, side-mounted intercoolers behind the front door ducts found in previous water-cooled turbo models, the new 992 generation has relocated the intercooler system to the top of the engine bay. The fresh ambient air is now channelled into the intercooler system through redesigned intercooler ducts located under the boot lid.

Cold, fresh air is drawn in by the charge air ducts, which are located on each side of the vehicle's rear side panelling. The air then flows into the inlet tanks on each side of the intercooler system module. The heat transfer process takes place as the charge air moves through the charge air cooler core and the ambient air from the upper charge air cooler ducts flows through the core and exits below the vehicle. The intercooled charge air from both cores is then combined in the single outlet reservoir in the centre section before entering the Y-pipe, which is connected to the engine's throttle body.

The CSF advantage
The key feature of the CSF by PWR 992 Turbo/S intercooler system is the Formula-1 grade intercooler core. CSF's strategic relationship with PWR has enabled the use of this core, which is unlike any other in the performance aftermarket.

Industry-leading dyno testing by M-Engineering
Working with Jon and Mitch, the owners and lead tuners of M-Engineering, the OEM intercoolers were compared to the CSF High-Performance Intercooler System on World Motorsports' state-of-the-art wind tunnel dyno.
Below are the graphs of the data from two test runs, one with the stock intercooler and one with the CSF High-Performance Intercooler. These tests started in 4th gear at 2500 rpm, went through a gear change to 5th and then to redline.

The CSF intercooler system proved to be much more efficient over the entire rev range, especially at very high charge air temperatures (beginning of the run).

The CSF intercooler system (left) compared to the OEM system (right), showing better results in intake air temperature (IAT) and intercooler efficiency while tested under hotter conditions. (The orange line in the CSF graph on the left shows the improved performance by approximately 25*F at the end of 5th gear)

Due to the larger and more efficient cores, the CSF intercooler system showed a slightly higher pressure drop with a range of 0.5 to 1 psi more than the OEM system throughout the bench test. This is generally to be expected - more surface area, more resistance - but with increased cooling efficiency offered by the CSF intercooler system.
