C32 SLK32 Crossfire SRT-6 Intercoolers

It's that time of year, again- and we've sold four (3) of these intercoolers in as many days. We expect to have a few more cores arriving early next week, but that's all we'll be able to get for the next 6-8 weeks, so if you want one of these high-efficiency intercoolers soon, GET IN TOUCH NOW.

Here's the link to our site where you can learn more and place an order- or, keep reading, below, for more info.

Speedriven C32 direct-replacement intercooler upgrade.
AMG’s 3.2 liter supercharged V6 engine may not steal the spotlight from its fire-breathing V12 brothers, but when it was fitted to the C32 sedan, SLK32 roadster, and Chrysler Crossfire SRT-6 it turned those capable vehicles into serious performance machines. Those cars are starting to get on in years, however, and many of them are starting to need replacement parts- only some of those parts are getting pretty hard to come by- even for Mercedes dealers.

One of those “hard to find” parts has been the 3.2 liter’s intercooler, which has shown “0” availability more than once in the last year and which retails for over $1000 USD when/if it is available. Luckily, Speedriven offers a superior aftermarket intercooler for the 32 series AMG Kompressor engine that is always in stock and ready to ship! Or, you know, that we can usually make in a day or two.

Speedriven’s lightweight aluminum intercooler is available now for C32 AMG, SLK32 AMG, and Chrysler Crossfire SRT-6 model vehicles, and is available as a standalone replacement part that is fully compatible with the factory systems or as part of Speedriven’s comprehensive 32 series AMG Kompressor high-performance tuning PKG.

The original OEM has 3 chambers that the water passes through one after the other. This assists in providing counter current cooling and pushing all the water through 1/3rd of the element = higher velocity = higher cooling (less boundary layer effect on the water side).
The coldest water hits the discharged air side whilst the hottest water hits the incoming air.
Is this Speedriven unit similar to the OEM or a once through unit?
I believe the speedriven unit is claimed to be more efficient.

L8tr...Answered my own question - I understand this to be a Rudy unit = once through...unless somethings changed.
