ColdFront__� Reservoir
The AWE Tuning �� ColdFront__� Reservoir is CNC Machined from 6061
Billet Aluminum and plumbed directly into the heat exchanger coolant
system to increase supercharger coolant capacity. The increase in
coolant capacity leads to lower coolant temperatures, in turn supporting
lower air intake temperatures. To further reduce coolant temperatures,
the AWE Tuning �� ColdFront__� Reservoir incorporates a true flow through
design which acts to reduce coolant temperature as it flows through the
unit. The AWE Tuning �� ColdFront__� Reservoir features an anodized
aluminum cap laser etched with the AWE Tuning logo, ensuring that
checking the coolant level is a breeze.
The AWE Tuning �� ColdFront__� Reservoir can be used either in
combination with the AWE Tuning �� ColdFront__� Heat Exchanger to complete
the ColdFront__� System, or can be used with the factory heat exchanger.
- Racing Use Only
Below are graphs of the performance testing done on the ColdFront™ - System. All tests were performed on the AWE Tuning Mustang MD-500-SE
- AWD dyno using a 6-speed B8 Audi S4 equipped with G.I.A.C. Stage 2
- Performance Pulley Software on 93 octane pump gas in a controlled
- ambient temperature of 90F.
-
- Above is a graph showing the supercharger coolant temperature difference
- of the coolant before entering vs. after exiting the ColdFront™ Heat
- Exchanger. The red line represents the pre heat exchanger coolant temperature. The green
- line represents the post heat exchanger coolant temperature. The top
- graph shows the temperature difference the stock heat exchanger is
- capable of producing, the middle graph shows the temperature difference
- the ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger is capable of producing, and the third
- graphs show the temperature difference the full ColdFront™ System is
- capable of producing.
- It can be seen that the stock heat exchanger struggles to keep the
- supercharger coolant temperatures low, especially at high RPM, yielding a
- maximum temperature drop of 8.6F @ 4760 RPM. In contrast, the
- ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger produced a maximum temperature drop of 13.7F @
- 6960 RPM, and 14.5F @ 7100 RPM when adding the ColdFront™ Reservoir to
- complete the ColdFront™ System. This results in a total maximum
- temperature drop of 24F when compared to the stock unit.
-
- Above is a graph showing the intake air temperatures when performing
- back to back pulls on our dyno. (Eight in total using 30 sec.
- intervals). The red line represents the stock heat exchanger, the green line represents the ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger, and the blue line represents the full ColdFront™ System with Reservoir.
- It can be seen that the stock unit suffers greatly from heat soak.
- During the eighth pull the intake air temperatures had climbed upward of
- 180F at redline. In contrast, the larger ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger
- produces a maximum air intake temperature of slightly over 165F after
- eight pulls. Adding the optional reservoir to complete the ColdFront™
- System results in a maximum air intake temperature of just under 165F
- after the eighth pull, with lower temperatures throughout the first
- seven pulls as well.
-
-
- Above is a graph representing the horsepower produced when performing
- back to back pulls on our Mustang dyno (Four runs in total). The green line represents the wheel horsepower during the first dyno run. The red line represents the wheel horsepower during the fourth dyno run.
- It can be seen that the stock heat exchanger suffered from heat soak,
- resulting in a power loss of 12 WHP @ 6900 RPM. In comparison, the
- ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger had a power loss of just 4 WHP @6900 RPM.
- When adding the optional AWE Tuning coolant reservoir to complete the
- ColdFront™ System, there was no power loss at all even multiple back to back dyno pulls.
