CSF McLaren MP4-12C / 650S / 675LT High Performance Heat Exchanger 8213

CSF Heat Exchangers

Turbocharger Heat Exchanger

The CSF #8213 Cooling product is designed to be a "Drop-In Fit" application. The product will install in the OEM Location with no modifications necessary unless otherwise noted or instructions are included in the product package. Please see the manufacturer repair manual for standard installation instructions. If you do not feel confident installing this product CSF recommends taking it to a qualified installation facility.

The McLaren M838TE engine is a marvel of modern engineering. These twin-turbo V8s are capable of massive amounts of horsepower for their size. One of the limiting factors is the amount of heat that can be removed from the charge-air system. For this, the limiting factor is the original front mount heat exchangers. The goal in upgrading this system is to lower intake air temperatures (IATs) at higher boost levels and offer faster recovery from inevitable heat soak. The CSF engineering team worked hard to design the most efficient heat exchangers possible that fit into the factory housing pods. | The CSF #8213 and #8212 heat exchangers cover all 12C, 650S/675LT, 570S/570GT/600LT, 720S/765LT, 750S, and GT/GTS models. There is some overlap in fitment for the 650S and 675LT models so you should consult a McLaren dealership with your VIN to confirm which coolers your application requires. The difference in the two heat exchanger models is the core height (measurement between tanks). The CSF #8212 (McLaren OE: 13L0183CP or 11L0375CP) are 59mm (2.3 in) taller than the CSF #8213 (McLaren OE: 11L0241CP). | The factory units are an all metal design but still use a crimp and brazed construction method which is weaker than CSF's TIG welded construction. The TIG-Welded 100% All Aluminum construction increases the overall strength of the radiator. This improves durability and longevity so you can be confident it will hold up to hard driving conditions. The outlet tanks include pre-plugged 1/8th NPT temperature sensor ports for those looking for more accurate coolant temperature readings. | Both the factory and CSF heat exchanger cores have 39 Cooling Tubes and 40 Fin Rows. However, the CSF units feature a 54mm 2-Row core. This is a huge upgrade over the 1-Row core found in the factory coolers. The CSF core also utilizes CSF's Exclusive B-Tube Technology which increases the heat transfer by approximately 15% over regular oval welded tubes. In addition, the super-efficient multi-louvered fins maximize airflow through the core for the best possible performance. | CSF includes removable metal rock guards to replace the OE plastic pieces (McLaren OE: 11L0528CP). These upgraded rock guards offer additional protection and durability. Now you can feel more confident that your cooling system is safer from road debris. | The factory heat exchangers are very well designed and efficient like most of the systems on these McLarens. However, they were optimized to function at factory power and boost levels so there was definitely room for improvement. | Plug and Play Installation: The OE foam strips are reused to seal and hit the heat exchangers in the factory pods and improve airflow. The CSF heat exchangers mount in the factory pods and require no modifications or cutting.
