AIRTEC Motorsport Uprated Charge Cooler for Fiesta ST Mk8 1.5 Turbo 200 PS

Unlock cooler intake temps and consistent on-road performance with this AIRTEC Motorsport uprated charge air cooler. A straight-swap unit for the Fiesta ST Mk8 1.5 litre three-cylinder turbo, it delivers dependable temperature control for mapped and standard cars, helping your hot hatch pull hard run after run without the heat-soak fade you get from the factory unit.

We have installed and used this kit ourselves at MJ Modifications and customer feedback has been superb. Fit and finish are spot on, and the gains in charge cooling are exactly what a tuned Fiesta needs for fast road and trackday driving.

Key reasons to choose this uprated cooler

• Robust bar-and-plate core for excellent heat rejection and durability
• Cast alloy end tanks with smooth internal flow paths to minimise pressure drop
• Straight swap fitment in the OE location, no trimming or drilling required
• Holds power on repeated acceleration, ideal for spirited driving and track use
• Consistently lower intake air temperatures for reliable performance with a remap
• Choice of finishes: satin black or motorsport silver with subtle AIRTEC branding
• Supplied with full step-by-step fitting instructions

Cooling and real-world results

• Back-to-back pulls show only a small 3 to 5°C rise on the cold side compared to the stock cooler’s 15°C plus
• Large drops in charge temps measured under load, helping combat heat soak and maintain repeatable power
• Owners typically see gains in the region of 8 to 12 bhp on a first remap, with improved mid-range punch

Bigger core volume for improved flow

• OE core: 690 x 135 x 65 mm, approx. 6.0 litres
• AIRTEC core: 700 x 150 x 80 mm, approx. 8.4 litres
• About 40 percent larger overall volume than the factory cooler

Ideal with a first tune and beyond

This upgraded cooler is the sweet spot for a lightly tuned Fiesta ST Mk8, supporting a first map while leaving headroom for future hardware. Expect dependable temperature control for daily use, B-road blasts and occasional track sessions.
