At WORX Racing Components, we deliver high-performance intercoolers designed for peak reliability. Proper maintenance is crucial to preserve their effectiveness and extend longevity. In this guide, we address the recommended cleaning procedures, explain the differences between Yamaha and Sea-Doo intercooler setups, and highlight the importance of complementary upgrades to maximize performance.

 

Warranty and the Importance of Routine Maintenance

Our intercoolers come with a 12-month warranty, which applies only if the core is correctly maintained. Routine cleaning and flushing are essential to prevent corrosion and buildup, especially in saltwater environments. Proper care not only protects your investment but also ensures consistent, high-level performance.

 

Yamaha Intercooler – Maintenance and Positioning Insights

Yamaha intercoolers often experience water buildup due to their positioning, and this is a normal occurrence. Unlike aftermarket systems, the factory intercooler setup directs water through the engine, minimizing internal water retention. With our intercoolers, it is important to manually remove any excess water to prevent corrosion and maintain performance.

 

1. Remove the top hose from the intercooler after use.

2. Use a service kit to vacuum out residual water from the core.

3. Repeat this step regularly to prevent water accumulation and ensure optimal airflow.

 

Sea-Doo Intercooler – Cleaning Procedure

Sea-Doo intercoolers require a slightly different approach to prevent blockages and corrosion.

 

1. Disconnect the outlet hose from the intercooler.

2. Start the engine briefly to flush out any remaining water from the core.

3. This step helps keep the core clear and prevents corrosion, especially after saltwater use.

 

Essential Air Filter Upgrade for Maximum Performance

For best results, it is integral to install an air filter kit alongside your intercooler setup. Without the added airflow from an air filter, performance will be bottlenecked, limiting the benefits of the intercooler. The combination of increased airflow and improved cooling efficiency ensures that your engine delivers maximum output. Skipping this upgrade can hinder both power and responsiveness, reducing the overall impact of the intercooler. Additionally, the position of the Air Filter kit has been carefully positioned to reduce water spray/ moisture to enter throughout the intercooler core, assisting with longevity of the core itself. 

 

Conclusion

Regular maintenance, proper flushing, and installing an air filter kit are key to keeping your WORX Racing intercooler operating at peak performance. These steps prevent corrosion, ensure proper water management, and maximize airflow to unlock the full potential of your setup.
