Front Mount Intercooler Kit (suits Toyota Hilux N70)

N70 TERRATUFF Design Philosphy and Parts

Heart of the Process West Terra-Tuff Intercooler system is a durable front mounted Bar and Plate intercooler core. All Terra-Tuff intercoolers use Bar and Plate construction due to not only its effective cooling and heat-sink capability, but also because it is the most durable and impact resistant of all intercooler types. Measuring in at 550mm x 265mm x 65mm the N70 Terra-Tuff core also offers a massive increase in cooling surface area as well as overall thickness.

The traditional bug-bear of intercooler upgrades – piping integrity – has also been addressed with the Terra-Tuff system. Specifically moulded silicone hoses of four ply construction are utilised throughout, and when combined with high-durability constant tension hose-clamps, tying to the mandrel bent aluminium pipe-work, the result is of factory quality and dependability.

A final (and important) part of the Terra-Tuff design is the use of isometric rubber mounts for the intercooler core. This means that in extreme conditions – such as demanding off road use – that the intercooler itself can flex its mounts with the rest of the vehicle and relieve strain on the mountings and pipe-work. The long term effect of this is no cracked mounting brackets and reduced likelihood of ever failing a hose connection.

As you can see by now the Process West Terra-Tuff intercooling solution is a serious product for long-term serious application.
