Difference aby/rs2 intercooler?

[Avantus]

ADU ABY SQ

length 50 43 67

height 18.7 18.7 25

depth 6.4 6.4 8.5

volume 5984 5146 14237


Impressive to see how much bigger the SQ intercooler was, even when having
less power than the RS2.

A 200 20V intercooler comes very close to the ADU intercooler, but it's thicker with less frontal surface meaning it's less efficient.

Anybody got a picture of a sport quattro intercooler? Just dont remember seeing one before.

I don't have a direct picture but I found these diagrams and photos that compare the Sport Q and the RR UrQ intercoolers:

Sport Q:



Which fits with this Sport Q 20VT "KW" engine see-through:



You can just see the top of the SQ intercooler in this photo:



RR 20V Turbo (like 3B) in an UrQ:

Cheers Dave, interesting. I guess sport quattro owners dont tend to take their cars apart as much as the rest of us.

This should give you a bit of a perspective of what Sport has compared to Ur-q.....

Urq (difference between WR and RR is measured in mm, i.e. not much at all).


Sport


Hope this hleps.

Very nice photo. Do you happen to have a bigger version of this one? (Looks like the source is similar to your photo):

I've got that picture but not any bigger i'm afraid.

That naked example was to be seen at a lot of motorshows... someone must have taken a million pictures of it

Martin, thanks so much for sharing. Made my day.

Interesting "ribbing" on the side of the intake manifold. Reminds me of a scene in the sci-fi movie, the Fifth Element, aboard the cruise "ship", which shows the walls of the space ship covered in similar crop circle/streamline moderne art deco symbols.

Thats a monster, why was it so big on a factory car?

Great pictures, thanks Martin!
