Description
The Mishimoto MMINT-A2W-DPR-3 is a purpose-built air-to-water intercooler engineered for serious forced induction projects, configured with opposite-side inlet and outlet ports and rated to support builds up to 1500 horsepower. As part of Mishimoto’s expanding air-to-water intercooler lineup, this bar-and-plate core brings compact, high-density charge cooling to turbocharged and supercharged platforms that demand consistent, repeatable performance.
Air-to-water intercooling has become the go-to solution for builders chasing serious forced induction power because it delivers dense, efficient cooling in a much smaller footprint than a traditional air-to-air core. This Mishimoto intercooler is constructed with a fully aluminum bar-and-plate core paired with 5mm-thick cast-aluminum end tanks that are custom engineered for superb airflow and reduced pressure drop. The end tanks are professionally TIG-welded to the core, giving the assembly a pressure tolerance of up to 100 psi of boost, while CNC-machined ribbed inlet and outlet couplers ensure a secure, leak-resistant grip between the intercooler and your piping. Whether you’re building a dedicated forced induction system for a turbo or supercharger swap, or upgrading an existing induction system that’s hitting the limits of air-to-air cooling, this core is designed to keep intake air temperatures in check and reduce heat soak.
Vehicle Applications
This Mishimoto air-to-water intercooler is offered as a component within Mishimoto’s air-to-water intercooler platform rather than a bolt-in kit tied to one specific vehicle listing, and it is supplied with a sturdy 1/8-inch thick steel mounting bracket to simplify installation into custom charge-air piping layouts. It’s intended for builders integrating an air-to-water induction system into turbocharged or supercharged forced induction projects where a compact, high-capacity core and flexible coolant plumbing are required.
