Vibrant 12948 Horizontal Flow Air-to-Air Intercooler Core 22"x11.75"x3.5" Bar

Vehicle Fitment

• Universal - Compatible with any custom forced induction application requiring a horizontal flow air-to-air intercooler core measuring 22" W x 11.75" H x 3.50" Thick

Fitment Notes

• Universal part - not vehicle-specific; end tanks, inlet/outlet fittings, and mounting hardware are not included
• Horizontal flow design - ambient air flows horizontally through the core
• Compatible with Vibrant TIG-welded cast aluminum end tanks (sold separately)
• Suitable for turbo and supercharger applications on street and race builds
• Sold individually - one intercooler core per package

Features

• Heavy-duty bar and plate construction for superior cooling efficiency over tube-and-fin designs
• Louvered fin design on ambient air path maximizes available core surface area for heat transfer
• Offset fin design on charge air path minimizes pressure drop for maximum power output
• 6061 aluminum construction for optimal strength, corrosion resistance, and heat dissipation
• Wide 22" core provides expanded cooling capacity for mid- to high-output forced induction builds
• Weld-ready core - cleaned and prepared for TIG welding straight out of the box
• 1-year limited warranty backed by Vibrant Performance

Product Description

The Vibrant Performance 12948 is a horizontal flow air-to-air intercooler core engineered for custom mid- to high-output forced induction builds. Its bar and plate construction - featuring a louvered fin design on the ambient air path and an offset fin design on the charge air path - delivers significantly cooler, denser intake air compared to tube-and-fin intercoolers, reducing detonation risk and maximizing the power-making potential of your turbo or supercharger.

At 22" wide x 11.75" high x 3.50" thick, the 12948 provides a generous cooling surface while maintaining a manageable core depth suitable for front-mount intercooler configurations. The core arrives cleaned and weld-ready for custom end tank fabrication or pairing with Vibrant's TIG-welded cast aluminum end tank assemblies (sold separately), making it a reliable foundation for professional-grade intercooler builds on street and track vehicles.
