I think technically that type of intercooler is referred to as "very expensive"

Hi Peter. I believe me or not but I used to work for Marussia before it when tits up first time at the end of 2014. I have a little knowledge about some of the parts you have although I used to work in the aero side of things. For instance I believe that the waste gate is made from Ti and if you it looks like you've got an exhaust there too. Unbelievable that the collector between the wastegate and the turbo pipe was machined from billet Ti! The charge cooler is cool hey, it was fed from a air to water cooler that was fed and positioned just behind the roll hoop on the 14 marussia car. If you have any question, I can try and answer.

Micro-tube intercoolers. You can get a custom one made by a company called mezzo technologies. I think they may have made the ones for F1. They make them for Indycar and a few other series.

Thank you for breaking down that F1 intercooler and giving us a rare peak inside! Love that carbon work; how it's finished inside!!! This stuff is practically beyond NASA/Aerospace!

Please show the rest of your parts! Very interesting to see ;)

Peter, thank you for taking the time to show these parts, very interesting. I did not know about the micro tube Mezzo style intercoolers.

That intercooler would be great on my Civic, because its 1.6 as well. V-tec would kick in harder, yo.

I could watch it all day! Please do the rest of the parts! Thanks for uploading it, awesome!

Thank you for a terrific and informative video. As an F1 fan it's fascinating to see the inner workings of an engine up close. The design and engineering are absolutely beautiful as should be expected at this level and every piece looks like a work of art.

the inlet for the coolant will most likely be the connection closest to the outlet of the air side. awesome to see this! thanks for the video

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. It is so rare to see this kind of thing i absolutely love it.

Wow, very cool seeing this level of engine tech! Thanks for sharing.

The craftsmanship of that intercooler is amazing. It looks like it was assembled and then planed on the sides.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHOWING THIS. its so hard to find detailed pictures of the wastegates that i thought back in 2014 the new engines maybe didnt have wastegates at all. then they implemented the screamer pipes and thought maybe wastegates were retrofitted.

Thanks for sharing. It's cool to see this stuff up close.

I’ve watched all your videos atleast 4-5 times. These f1 videos I’ve watched 7-8 times each, I’m fascinated! I love seeing you incorporate F1 gadgetry into the Lambo

awesome, be great to have an in depth look like this at the entire f1 car

Wow , really fascinating to see the level of detail and engineering in these things. The cost of running a formula 1 team makes a bit more sense now!

Amazing technology! Can't imagine the time and craftsmanship involved in the manufacturing process.

Loved the video, it's great to see the parts close up. Thanks

This is awsome im so happy his plan is to use the design and hardwork that went into these pieces and apply them to his own cars its rare to find Lamborghini owners who know anything about thier car

Fantastic! You don't get to peak into an F1 engineered piece ever. I feel lucky to see this.

This was truly brilliant. Thank you man!

Awesome stuff man, really really cool. Glad that you are showing it, keep it going! :)

Amazing to see the inside of the microtube intercooler! Thanks for this!

The technology of modern F1 cars is amazing....great video

Stunning,.love seeing well engineered parts..

Wow that intercooler is a work of art it would have cost a fortune to make as there is so many CNC machined parts then custom carbon for the intake and exit ! Thanks for showing it it detail.

Wow awesome a channel for true car nerds, subscribed! Looking forward to some binge watching your content Cheers

The cylinder on the side of the waste gate has a linear transducer built in. it measures the position of it's stroke.

Really interesting to see how rough these parts are. Resin globs on the carbon fiber exterior and a really fast surface finish on the aluminum. Serial number on the aluminum looks like it might have been done by hand. F1 seems so polished and professional from the outside - it is interesting for me to see the imperfections and human elements.

Very awesome collection. Not sure why people would give a thumbs down to any of this.

As already mentioned, please do a video of your other F1 parts! That would be great to see. This was very interesting. Also, if you do use any of the parts in one of your road cars, please please show it running with the hood up. Would love to see that!

This we call spending for knowledges. Good expensive knowledge sharing pal!!!

Galet häftigt och intressant för alla oss bilnördar. Mer såna här videos vill vi se!

Gee your a lucky man , that was great to get such detail on hard to see bits, and we are all lucky to watch, thank you , yes please do more and let us know a bit about the auction , how many bidders , prices and what else sold or past in.

The waste-gate is made form Titanium by the looks of it, especially with the rainbow effect where the heat has changed it.

Riktigt riktigt intressant konstruktion på en intercooler. Trevligt att du lägger upp klipp på lite F1 grejer :)

Amazing to see inside, thanks.

Very cool parts, thanks for the video.

Very interesting to see. Thanks for sharing with us.

Those two braided lines are turbo coolant lines. You can see the molded hold-downs in the carbon charge pipes where they would have been routed.

Those parts are amazing. Great video.

Micro tube inter cooler I have one on the 5.4L F150 in the intake manifold over the magnenson super charger. works good no hysteresis losses

Those are generally called "charge coolers" rather than intercoolers but technically it's a "laminar flow air-to-water heat exchanger". Surface finish on the carbon is due to that being the layup side and also due to that side not needing to be smooth for any purpose other than aesthetics...so it's not (to save weight). Nice to see one torn down! Still surprises me that they use wastegates at all as the whole point of the MGU-H was to harvest energy from the turbo when producing more boost than required. Material is probably inconel or titanium.

The coolant goes in on the air discharge side so it's counter flow. That way the air entering the engine is as cool as possible

@PeterBjorck - the "ABA" branded hose clamps are from an English company called Springmasters. Part # 48312. Interesting that Marussia put their own serial numbers on each clamp: they really are tracking every part individually.

Great video, keep up the good work!

Awsome! beautiful pieces

That intercooler is just amazing. All those tiny pipes and machining is gorgeous. I wonder how many man hours it took to produce it.

Very cool and interesting stuff!

fantastic coverage thank you!

I'm drooling to see inside the intercooler. Also I am dying to see the wastegate.

The texture on the outside of the carbon parts is caused by the vacuum bags used in the molding process. The mold would be on the inside keeping it smooth but since the outside didn't matter they didn't make a mold side for it.

Tusen takk! Veldig kult og se. Delt

It's a normal water to air intecooler. minis tubes are used to maximise the surface area of heat exchange. you have more surface of material with numerous little tubes than bigger fins. moreover it allows more homogeneous exchange. Ethylene glycol is not allowed on tracks,so it's certainly just water,or water with sodium,or something enhancing heat exchange.

More please! This is gold!

Presumably the cold water inlet is at the opposite end to the hot air inlet, giving counter-current flow for best efficiency.

Just a small correction @6:40 If the air encounters a narrower diameter, it will actually increase in velocity but decrease in pressure. So I think the aim there is to have more air flow faster and leave a lower pressure "behind", for more air to flow through...just my two cents. :)

That intercooler is SUPER efficient. It should capable of cooling your lambo. Fi cars are pretty much full throttle always. That thing has huge heat removing capabilities. Plus how much water you run affects thermal mass alot. An 800 hp intercooler and a 800 hp wide open for entire race intercooler is a different animal. Beautiful unbelievable Swiss watch of intercoolers.

Jeez. The heat exchanging ability of that thing must be outrageous.

Awesome video! Serious props for the engineers who build and design the F1 stuff! Would love to know what they're worth!

Those parts are Beautiful!

Nice, thanks for showing us.

This was great. Thank you!

Its nice to see they use ebay silicone bulge couplers and worm drive hose clamps in F1.

Very interesting please post more videos like this!

Great video bro, thanks!

fina grejer ! jag bruka ibland köpa saker bara för att få se och lägga på hyllan men detta va ju att ta det till en ny nivå haha! tack för videon! mvh jens

Amazing! Real F1 parts, that is history.

So I dont know the rules for formula one but that intercooler almost seems like it should have refrigerant running thru it instead of liquid. I would be worried of clogs even with the CLEANEST liquid. Again, I have NO IDEA, its just my take on it. Thanks Peter, its always nice to see tech videos from someone that knows what they are doing. Good luck

interesting video! more like this please!

That intercooler is magnificent

That intercooler uses refrigerant gas under decompression. The inlet lines are too small if a liquid had to cool that amount of airflow. Probably the same cooling the ultracapacitor and K.E.R.S. motor.

This was such an interesting video. I bet when Ferrari were designing those parts they never thought that they would end up on a Lamborghini one day! I am very curious as to how much parts like those cost at auction.

Thanks for making these videos.

Thank you for the detailed video.

that intercoller coolant piping is more like an air con system. Very interesting indeed.

thank you for sharing! very interesting!!!

Very interesting and nice video! Please show the other parts you have

What a wonderful treasure!

Awesome thanks for posting!

I feel like if you change the inlet to a bigger cross section and lower the speed you can increase the heat transfer into the water and squeeze out a bit more cooling

Awesome video! I want to know more about the Volvo wagon project!

really cool video!

Riktigt intressant video!!😍

That wastegate is so much more free flowing than a right angle poppet valve overcoming fixed spring pressure. I would absolutely use the wastegate but it's not designed to sit in traffic. It's durability is probably quite limited. The same with the intercooler, you will need to run a high volume dual filtration system and possibly a marine anode to limit any corrosion.

More videos like this, please!

I believe they use distilled water for the intercooler because its transfer heat faster than a coolant or antifreeze and thats why it has mixed with the aluminium residue resulting a sediment at the bottom part.thats why we can see the residue clearly because if using coolant they will put some color in a coolant if they using it to distinguish it from other liquid if something is leaking, i think the intercooler didn't share the water/coolant with the engine cooling system, btw nice video, this kind of things really amuse me because i love to learn something new about car technology and this kind of parts are rarely seen like u said its was a secret thing, i think i wont see any of this if you didnt show it in the video, cheers mate

You ROCK !!! thank you for sharing. very nice video btw, 059/3 stand for 2014 engine. ;) ...i guess you know by now. The 2015 intercooler is a little different, and the wastegate design was dropped for 2015 as well. (you can google it, search for Toro Rosso engine pics, you will see. (its the 059/4 engine)

Would you mind including the weight and some rough dimensions in your F1 parts review videos?

Wow! Thanks for sharing!

Flow is in the opposite direction to air. So If Turbo blows in Central pipe water starts in the opposite side

@PeterBjorck peterbjorck What kind of watch are you wearing?

Exclusive content ... Thank You! By "hydraulic" do you mean oil pressure? Pressure rises dramatically under load and drops on deceleration, so it could work ... maybe. If the five wires are actively controlling valving that could dial the system in. Maybe it's a independent hyd system all together. Would love to learn more about this stuff. Wouldn't it be fun pressing the 1600+ tubes into the intercoolers, assuming you only had a few hundred to make... not!

Great video It looked to me the intercooler small pipes would possibly be the water inlet at pressure for a freeze spray idea and and 2 small outlets 🙄 I think theres more to that intercooler with the strange small screws going into the core. can we see more 👍

Ferrari F1 spec intercoolers on Lamborghini engines? Ferruccio will be turning in his grave.

Great stuff...stuff that doesn't get used or is odd can get turned in "art" or table lamps/furniture...Best of luck in finding creative ways to fit Ferrari F1 parts on your Lambo & Volvo

Do you know what the pipes are made of? It seem to be aluminum but I was expecting copper (berylium is out of the question). They really need to do a lot of cooling in the smallest volume possible, although the mass would increase.

Cool you can use this to cool your engine and cool air for turbo at the same time I think
