Description
The Mishimoto MMUIC-18 is a universal air-to-air race intercooler core measuring 17.75in x 11.8in x 4.5in, built as a standalone core for fabricators who need to design a custom forced induction charge-cooling setup from scratch. Rather than a bolt-on complete kit, this core gives builders full control over end tank fabrication, piping layout, and mounting position within a wide range of turbocharged or supercharged induction systems.
Air-to-air intercooler cores sit at the heart of any serious forced induction system, pulling heat out of compressed intake air before it reaches the engine. Because the MMUIC-18 is offered as a raw race core, it has become a common foundation for custom forced induction turbo projects, race-only induction systems, and one-off induction engine builds where an off-the-shelf intercooler simply will not fit the available packaging. Whether you are assembling a forced induction system for a turbo swap, working through a performance induction upgrade, or fabricating end tanks and piping for a dedicated race car, this Mishimoto core provides the core surface area builders look for when planning airflow around demanding forced induction turbo applications.
Vehicle Applications
The Mishimoto MMUIC-18 is a universal-fit air-to-air race intercooler core, meaning it is not engineered around any single make or model. It is instead intended for custom installations, letting builders integrate it into forced induction systems on turbocharged or supercharged vehicles of their choosing, as long as fabricated end tanks and intercooler piping are sized to match its 17.75in x 11.8in x 4.5in core dimensions.
