{"product_id":"mk7-gti-fmic-982-cu-in-bar-and-plate-intercooler","title":"MK7 GTI FMIC 982 cu in Bar and Plate Intercooler","description":"The ARM MK7 GTI FMIC is a competition-grade front mount intercooler engineered to significantly reduce intake air temperatures (IATs) for enhanced engine performance. Its true front mount design positions the intercooler directly in the path of the coolest ambient air, before it passes through other radiators. This setup utilizes a substantial 982 cubic inch bar and plate intercooler core, measuring 26 x 9 x 4.2 inches, which is 99% larger than the factory unit. The core is complemented by ultra-dense fin packs with a density of 20 fins per inch, maximizing heat dissipation capabilities.\n\nDesigned for demanding applications, this intercooler can support higher boost levels from IS38 or larger turbochargers. The installation process is streamlined as a 100% bolt-on upgrade, eliminating the need for cutting or drilling. While removal of the front bumper is necessary, it avoids the complexity of disassembling the crash bar, radiator stack, or draining coolant associated with OEM-location intercoolers. The kit includes specific mounting brackets for a straightforward fit, with an estimated installation time of 2-3 hours.\n\nThis FMIC is compatible with Volkswagen Golf VII GTI (Hatchback 2.0T Gen3, Sportwagen 1.8T Gen3), Golf VII R (Hatchback 2.0T Gen3), Golf VII TSI (Hatchback 1.4L), and Golf VII Facelift (Hatchback 2.0T Gen3). However, it explicitly **does not fit** vehicles with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) mounted in the lower bumper. It **will fit** vehicles with ACC mounted into the VW emblem.\n\nThe ARM MK7 Competition FMIC is backed by a lifetime warranty covering defects in craftsmanship or fitment.","brand":"Arm Motorsport","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52686963835192,"sku":"MK7FMIC","price":547.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687887613.webp?v=1784879011","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/mk7-gti-fmic-982-cu-in-bar-and-plate-intercooler","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
