Veloster N Intercooler Kit
Couldn't load pickup availability
Next Batch ETA: October 31, 2024
The SXTH Element Engineering Front Mount intercooler Kit was developed specifically for the Veloster N to provide maximum cooling capability for BOTH DCT and MT transmission models. This kit is a bolt-on kit with NO modifications required and fits the DCT model AND the manual transmission model
Our high performance bar and plate core provides superior cooling and heat sink resistance to tube/plate construction.
The Core
Our intercooler core was designed using 3D scanning and CAD along with CFD simulation to achieve perfect fitment while maximizing airflow. The "stepped" core takes up as much space as possible so we can achieve the best cooling possible while fitting in the car without any modifications or extra parts needed. Our core also comes with a special heat resistant coating.
Aluminum Hot Pipe
Our kit keeps the stock cold side tubing for simplicity and we provide a better flowing hot side pipe made from powdercoated aluminum to maintain structural strength.
OEM vs SXTH
The OEM intercooler in the Veloster N leaves a lot to be desired. As you can see below, the SXTH unit is much larger than OEM. By utilizing every cubic inch possible, we can provide better airlfow and better cooling for more power and less heat soak.

Performance Boost
Even though there are certain limiters in the N Engine Control Unit (ECU), our core was still able to achieve measurable power increase on our in-house dyno. Gains can be seen across the RPM range. This becomes more apparent on tuned ECUs where there is higher boost command and gains of up to 15whp can be achieved.
Couplers & Clamps
We use the highest quality 5-ply silicone hoses and t-bolt clamps for our tubing connections. The hoses are also designed in the computer for perfect fitment.
C.A.D.
By 3D scanning the car and incorporating that into our CAD software, we can keep OEM fitment and design the components for ease of installation while enhancing performance. Here you can see an early concept model of the scan data and our intercooler concept.
Customer Reviews
Love the FMIC easy bolt on fast shipping
The intercooler is fantastic, high quality construction and hardware. Install was a breeze, and looks fantastic. The cardboard template for painting the logo was a really nice touch too.
I have had this FMIC kit installed on my DCT VN for over 9 Months. No issues so far with parts cracking or leaks. For me the install was intermediate difficulty (my first time installing an fmic and by myself) and it took all night, but everything fit in the end.
Can definitely feel that I can do more pulls without any signs of heatsoaking after this install.
