The ELEVATE Volvo T5 Intercooler is a premium quality intercooler which effectively cools the boosted air from your turbo.  ELEVATE has invested a considerable amount of effort creating the ultimate intercooler for your Volvo. Rather than simply creating the largest intercooler possible, an integrated, overall vehicle approach was established for the best possible product. Years of intimate knowledge of Volvo products and the enhancement thereof has created a proven record of products that perform. The ELEVATE Intercooler is no exception.

Starting with a premium bar and plate core sized 22.5”(57cm) x 6.5”(17cm) x 3”(7.6cm) for maximum thermal efficiency, we meticulously weld uniquely designed, exclusive cast aluminum end tanks for a perfect fit in the stock intercooler location. The all-aluminum construction features a silver powdercoated finish to retain the sharp appearance of the Intercooler. Factory mounting points are retained as is the MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) Sensor mounting position for accurate information to the ECM. 

Maximum thermal efficiency is accomplished with our design, yielding significant power gains on both the street and the track. The truth about the stock intercooler is that it is efficient enough for most applications so long as the ambient air temperature is below 50F (10C) and there is sufficient airflow over the intercooler. However, as the ambient air temperature rises, the stock intercooler is not able to dissipate the heat of the boosted air passing through it quickly enough—requiring a larger, more efficient Intercooler. 

Some competitors claim power gains associated to their intercooler.  “Power increase numbers” are easily manipulated in a controlled environment such as dyno testing. For Elevate to claim that our intercooler yields a certain amount of power increase would simply not be accurate nor truthful because conditions and airflow vary so widely between each application. What our customers require is real-world, street and track proven performance increases. The ELEVATE Intercooler delivers.

Our testing has shown that airflow through the intercooler is critical for overall vehicle performance. Fitting an intercooler that is too thick will restrict and/or overheat the ambient air which passes through the intercooler and needs to cool the radiator. The majority of the cooling air required for proper radiator efficiency is brought in through the lower opening, where the intercooler resides. The upper “grille” between the headlights actually has little effect on radiator cooling. This is proven on our evaluations of Volvo aerodynamics and is further proven by the many modern cars on the road do not have an “upper grille” opening at all.

Another consideration in the ELEVATE Intercooler design is overall vehicle balance. Fitting too large or heavy of an intercooler on the nose of the car upsets overall vehicle balance. The front engine, front (or all) wheel drive Volvo architecture already has a handicap in being heavily front biased, and too heavy of an intercooler further exasperates this problem. The ELEVATE Intercooler increases intercooler size, capacity and efficiency while synergistically complementing the overall vehicle dynamics. 

No cutting or drilling is required to fit the ELEVATE Intercooler—simply remove the front bumper cover to gain access to the intercooler, unbolt the factory unit and replace with the ELEVATE Intercooler. Depending on the skill level of the installer, most installs take less than one hour, with the actual intercooler swap taking only minutes.

Alfa Romeo Gloria Concept looks like a proper Alfa

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

A new Alfa concept – the Alfa Romeo Gloria Concept – is heading for the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. But it’s not previewing a new Alfa. They’re wrong, of course, but the logic that if you buy a car for how it looks and how it makes you feel, rather than its reliability or cost, marks you out as someone with high octane fuel instead of blood running through your veins, is sound.

Concept Car of the Week: Volkswagen Microbus (2001)

Fri, 18 Oct 2013

The turn of the millennium seemed to induce a feeling of nostalgia among car manufacturers and with it a plethora of heritage/retro designs, including the new Mini, new Ford Mustang and Nissan Z. Following the runaway success of its New Beetle, which probably started the trend, VW asked itself whether it could enjoy the same success with a modern interpretation of the legendary T1 Microbus. Designed at the surf-central design studio in Simi Valley, California, the Microbus Concept took ample inspiration from its distant ancestor, but was modernized in every way.

Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4 (2010) first details

Tue, 24 Aug 2010

Peugeot has released details of its new 3008 Hybrid4, the world's first hybrid production car with a diesel engine under the bonnet. So far all car makers dabbling in hybrid technology have plumped for petrol engines, primarily on the grounds of cost and the fact that countries such as the US, Japan and many emerging markets still prefer unleaded to derv.We saw the concept 3008 Hybrid4 in 2009 at the Frankfurt motor show, and now Pug has turned it into reality. The Hybrid4 employs PSA's 2.0-litre oil-burner allied to an electric motor, and offers claimed fuel economy of 74mpg and CO2 emissions of 99g/km, slipping – just – under the 100g/km barrier.
