Presenting the AWE Tuning Audi 3.0T ColdFront™ System.  Designed in house at AWE Tuning, our ColdFront™ product line is the solution for consistent and reliable performance for modified vehicles looking for maximum power and security.  

• Package: The ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger and ColdFront™ Reservoir

The ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger 

The AWE Tuning ® ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger was developed to reduce high air intake temperatures found in supercharged engines. Designed and conceptualized in house at AWE Tuning, the AWE Tuning ® ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger should be a mandate for supercharged 3.0T engines looking to keep things consistent and reliable. 

The AWE Tuning ® ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger is a direct replacement for the factory heat exchanger, fitting neatly behind the front bumper and grill assemblies. This product was specifically designed by the engineers at AWE Tuning to include a unique drain plug and bleed screw, allowing the system to be bled without the need for external tools. In other words, all the benefits of a cooling upgrade with none of the fitment downsides.

Why a heat exchanger? 

Insufficiently cooled air entering your vehicle's engine will rob power and performance. Modified vehicles, notably those flashed and/or equipped with a modified supercharger pulley like the AWE Tuning Stage 2 Performance Pulley, are particularly susceptible to higher intake air temperatures. Enter the AWE Tuning ® ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger: Proven to maintain consistent intake air temperatures and power, even under the most demanding of conditions.

How it works

The AWE Tuning ® ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger utilizes a larger frontal area, resulting in in cooler supercharger coolant temperatures, leading to better air intake temperatures and consistent, reliable power.

Partner products:

The AWE Tuning ® ColdFront™ Heat Exchanger can be used either in combination with other members of the AWE Tuning ® ColdFront™ product line, or it can be used as a stand-alone upgrade.

The 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.
