During development of the AWE 2.0T Q5 exhaust systems with performance software, high intake air temperatures were present. The stock front mount intercooler isn't able to effectively cool the intake charge at that performance level, allowing temperatures to rise and hurt performance as rpms increase. With this in mind, AWE set out to develop the Q5 Front Mount Intercooler in order to bring intake temperatures back under control. AWE employed CAD modeling software to design an intercooler that uses an end tank / core package significanty larger than stock while striving to re-use the robust factory hoses and clamps to keep costs down. This end tank design is a proven winner and is in use on multiple platforms. While AWE knew this engine ran very hot, and could really benefit from improved intercooling, the test results were shocking. The AWE FMIC was able to reduce Intake Air Temperatures (IATs) by a maximum of 31 degrees F over stock, a difference of nearly 25%! The massive drop in IATs will yield even better performance in warmer climates and higher power applications. Whether you are simply running enhanced software, or are planning on a larger turbo upgrade for your car, the AWE intercooler solves all heat related issues that come with more turbo boost. Keeping your intake air temperatures low results in more power, better engine output stability when outside temps climb, and the safety margin needed when pushing the limit. Currently not available for vehicles equipped with Audi Drive Select. Please note, the AWE Performance Front Mounted Intercooler is for racing use only.

Why Drivers Choose FAST of West Chester

  • I can't recommend this place enough. Being able to trust a shop in the performance world is big. The 2hr drive to get there, is worth knowing the job will be done right. Very happy to have found this shop, to
    support my builds going forward.

    Donald Wojnar

  • I recently had the pleasure of working with FAST of West Chester for some performance upgrades on my 2022 WRX, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. I opted for a Borla S-Type exhaust and Cygnus Coilovers, and the team at FAST nailed the installation, fitment, and setup to a T.

    Adam Cranston

  • The team at FAST are excellence in every way. First, I consulted with Dave on mods for my HPDE track car. He listened and advised me on the best parts & mods to achieve my goals. He was patient & gave me space to research the options presented & worked with me through several changes before we built. Second, the build execution was flawless, proper heat shielding, bracing and poly everywhere. All components worked as advertised.

    Bryce Budd

  • This place has been my go to shop for all things Subaru. From simple service to performance parts and tuning, they have been top notch.

    William Brunell

  • Excellent shop. They installed a Cobb Stage 2 DP and Whiteline Sway bars and end links on my 2013 WRX. The work was done right and clean. The estimate was accurate. They were very knowledgeable, friendly and gave me the straight scoop on exactly what I was getting for the money
    and what I needed to get where I want to be with it. I'd recommend them
    to any car enthusiast.
