What does an Intercooler do?

An Intercooler is used to cool the compressed air coming from the turbocharger on a diesel truck engine before it enters the engine's intake manifold. This cooling process boosts performance, improves fuel efficiency, and helps protect the engine.

Why Is Cooling the Air Important?

Turbochargers compress air to increase engine power. But when air is compressed, it gets hot; hot air is less dense. Less dense air means less oxygen, which limits combustion efficiency. An intercooler cools this air down, making it denser and richer in oxygen. That means better combustion, more power, lower fuel use, and fewer emissions.

Dura-Lite Evolution Intercoolers are widely considered the best in the heavy-duty truck industry due to their superior durability, leak resistance, and long-term performance.

They are purpose-built to solve the most common failures seen in standard OEM and aftermarket Intercoolers.
