Introducing the EUROCOMPULSION UPGRADED SECONDARY HEAT EXCHANGER system for the ALFA ROMEO GIULIA 2.0L.

Lower your intercooler temps to support more consistent and reliable POWER! This heat exchanger upgrade is an add on system to the existing factory heat exchanger and plumbing in the Giulia 2.0L. This kit comes with everything needed to integrate smoothly into your factory setup, including it's own mounting system, bracket, hose supply/fittings, and it's very own supplemental coolant pump with wiring harness.

The Giulia 2.0L's liquid to air intercooling system has two purposes:

1. Primary intercooling system, cools hot charge air coming from the turbo to keep intake air temperatures in check.
2. Cooling the turbo itself.
   

The system has only just enough capacity to handle both of these tasks on a stock car in normal usage. Alfa Romeo knows this, which is why they added an additional heat exchanger to the system in the heavier Stelvio powered by the same engine.

On a modified car, especially one that will serve track duty, increasing the capacity of the Giulia's system as the factory did on the Stelvio is a good idea and that's exactly what the Eurocompulsion Secondary Heat Exchanger Upgrade does.

However, we went beyond the factory solution. Our heat exchanger is TWICE the size of the factory's additional unit in the Stelvio and QVs, and we utilize an additional pump to assist with circulation, making cooling more effective. This gives the car more intercooling and turbo cooling capacity than even the factory Giulia QV! This enhances performance, reliability, and is a very worthwhile upgrade.

In addition to size, it's all about location, location, location. Our upgraded secondary unit sits front and center in the V Grille, where the largest source of ram air at the front bumper is seen (rather than situated off to the side in the bumper cheek). This allows our unit access to the largest amount of airflow to assist in cooling the intercooler coolant within. During our initial air intake development, we tested different areas of the bumper at the front of the car while driving with a manometer to determine the highest pressure areas for ram air. The area in the Grill "V" was more exposed to higher amounts of ram air pressure than the bumper cheek.

This secondary heat exchanger has been used on our own daily driven Giulia (w/ our Big Turbo Upgrade) with 400+ PROVEN horsepower at the track, drag strip, and street. This upgrade will handle whatever you can throw at it.

WHY NOT JUST USE THE STELVIO 2.0L, QV, or EVEN THE MASERATI GRECALE FACTORY SECONDARY UNIT SETUP?

In a nutshell, our secondary unit and setup is superior. It is larger, has more cooling volume, easier to install, more efficient, inexpensive, and more effective in increasing/maintaining performance. 

• The factory system components needed to copy the Stelvio 2.0L and QVs would be cost prohibitive (aka more expensive than it needs to be), and require you to make exterior changes to the car
  
• Loss of Brake Cooling ducts
• Not plug and play
• EC unit is larger/has more cooling volume (130% increase) (246ci vs 107ci)
• EC unit has supplemental pump to support the existing factory pump
• EC unit is plug & play
• EC unit has superior location in the bumper
• Why pay more and do more work to source inferior OEM parts when you can fabricate the correct parts to do the job right
  

FEATURES:

• Independent system, Integrates with the existing factory cooling system
  
• Completely plug and play
• Weight of system: 5.8 lbs
• 130% Larger Core Volume compared to OEM secondary units (in Stelvio 2.0L & QVs) (246ci vs 107ci) 
• Expanded End Tanks, Improved Heat Dissipation
• Lower Intercooler Temperatures (Reduced Manifold temps by up to 20F)
• Lower Intercooler Coolant Temperatures (Reduced IC coolant temps up to 16F)
• Improved performance & power consistency in all driving conditions, including at Part Throttle and Wide Open Throttle (WOT)
• Thoroughly tested in all seasons and on the track, drag strip, and street
• Great for Stock, Tuned, or Heavily Modified Giulia 2.0Ls (like our Big Turbo Giulia)
• Includes all necessary hardware, hoses, and wiring to mount and install

IMPORTANT PRODUCT NOTES:

• 1-2 Gallons of Additional Factory Coolant will be needed for installation.
• Requires Eurocompulsion V2 or V4 Intake
• Will not work on some EU crashbars

HOW THE FACTORY INTERCOOLING SYSTEM WORKS

The factory intercooler system (known as the LT Cooling System) uses the main radiator for the LT system and the additional radiator (R2) for the LT system. at the front of the car and in the cheek/bumper to cool the coolant running to the intercooler system, which is a liquid to air intercooler. This intercooler takes in charge air from the turbo, and uses the internal coolant to cool the charge air before entering into the manifold/engine.

The Giulia 2.0L does not come from the factory with this additional radiator (R2) for the LT system).

Our upgraded secondary heat exchanger system adds a secondary unit where there was none before on the Giulia 2.0L (serving as the R2 radiator from the diagram, but in a new and more optimized location at the front of the car).

The EC "SHE" system for the Giulia 2.0L more than doubles the available core volume of the additional heat exchanger in the Stelvio or QVs, thus increasing the cooling capabilities on the circulating coolant. This coolant is then delivered to the intercooler system colder than it was before. This is also supported by a supplemental pump, designed to assist in circulating coolant through the additional exchanger more efficiently, resulting in more rapid and effective cooling.

This contributes greatly to the capability of the intercooler to more effectively cool the charge air, resulting in lower temperatures (and better power, while supporting more tuning changes).
