New Haven, CT — Oct 29, 2007 — Proliance International, Inc., the aftermarket leader in automotive heat transfer products, announces HBX® Intercoolers for the sport compact market.

Proliance Inc. HBX® Intercoolers for the sport compact market

If the compressor is the heart of your turbo, then the intercooler is the soul.  And, if you’re serious about tuning your vehicle to reach its maximum potential, make the move from a standard bar and plate design intercooler to a HBX® - only from Proliance.

Introducing Heatbuster® Extreme (HBX®) High Performance Intercoolers…offering new levels of intercooler performance that go beyond bar and plate designs.  Advanced fin design achieves a high heat transfer rate and reduces the pressure drop through the core to deliver cooler, denser air to your engine. The compact design reduces turbo lag common to thicker, traditional bar and plate coolers.

Along with Proliance’s high performing core designs, all HBX® intercoolers are also built with Proliance’s patented Ultra-Seal® technology.  Proliance Ultra Seal® CAC has a unique zero-leakage, high temperature resilient joint design.  Specially formulated high temperature silicone is used to manufacture grommets that are used between tube and header to absorb pressure and temperature induced stresses.  The Proliance Ultra Seal® solution completely eliminates tube and manifold cracking and is the only theoretically infinite life cooler available today.
  
HBX® manifolds are polished, single-piece, cast aluminum and are locked to the core with bolted side supports for extra strength and durability.  Bolt-on side supports and patented one-piece manifolds improve durability to a level unachievable using traditional technology.  This eliminates the weld cracking common on many intercoolers.

HBX® Intercoolers also feature:
 • Brazed aluminum core construction
 • Polished, single-piece, cast aluminum manifolds
 • Enhanced inner and outer fin designs
 • Heat transfer that meets or exceeds competition
 • Improved turbo performance in a lighter, smaller package
 • Unique tube-to-header technology
 • Patented design (U.S. Patent #5,894,694 and #6,330,747)
