Apikol B6 A4 1.8t SMIC Dyno Testing Results – APR Stage 1+ The following plots were produced during a test to compare the Apikol B6 (2002- 2005) A4 1.8t Side Mounted Intercooler (SMIC) with the stock Audi Side Mounted Intercooler. The test was conducted using a SuperFlow 4-wheel chassis dynamometer to measure horsepower, torque and air/fuel ratio. Intake air temperatures (intercooler outlet temperatures) were measured and logged utilizing the Shade Tree Software ProDiag tool. The test was performed with a APR Stage 1+ 2004 Audi A4 1.8t (APR Stage 1+ software, Audi TT 225 injectors, Milltek Cat-back exhaust). Each intercooler was on the car for 3 full-pull dyno runs, with the car being allowed to cool between the both of the SMIC tests. The results were very impressive! On average, by the end of each dyno pull the intake temperatures using the stock intercooler were 20+ degrees (F) hotter than the intake temperatures using the Apikol SMIC. This extreme reduction of intake air temperature with the APIKOL SMIC resulted in massive power gains and maximum power repeatability! The increased efficiency and cooling ability of the APIKOL SMIC allows your A4 1.8t to consistently produce power, with greatly reduced losses due to intercooler heat soaking effects. The following first 3 dyno charts compare the power output of the Apikol SMIC compared to Stock SMIC on the 1 st , 2 nd and 3 rd dyno pulls. The final graph shows the VAG logs of the intake air temperature (IAT) averaged over the 3 runs for each intercooler. RUN 1 COMPARISON:
