Nissens 17-51-7-800-682 Turbocharger Intercooler

The Nissens 17-51-7-800-682 is a premium quality turbocharger intercooler designed to reduce the temperature of compressed air from the turbocharger before it enters the engine's combustion chamber. This air-cooled intercooler significantly improves the combustion process in turbocharged systems, increasing engine power and efficiency.

Key Features:

• Core dimensions: 508 x 127 x 106 mm (20.0 x 5.0 x 4.2 inches)
• Air-cooled design with brazed aluminum cooling fins
• Reinforced plastic tanks with at least 30-35% fiberglass reinforcement
• Tubes equipped with turbulators for improved airflow and heat exchange
• Compact fin construction with louvres increasing heat exchange surface area
• Specially designed core end plates to minimize mechanical stress
• Strengthened inlets and outlets to withstand high temperatures and mechanical tension
• Direct OE replacement with complete fit for easy installation

Construction and Quality:

This Nissens intercooler features brazed cooling fins made from aluminum for optimal thermal conductivity. The plastic tanks are reinforced with special inner cross-bars and contain no recycled plastics, ensuring maximum durability. Connections and mounting points are designed for a firm, precise fit that enables straightforward installation.

Important Installation Note:

Intercoolers must always be replaced after a turbocharger failure or when installing a new turbo. Carbonized oil and metal chips from a damaged turbocharger can clog intercooler channels, potentially causing premature failure of the newly installed turbo. Symptoms of a failing intercooler include noticeable loss of engine power, increased fuel consumption, and unnatural exhaust smoke.
