Description
The Mishimoto MMINT-DMAX-01BK is a direct-fit, all-aluminum performance intercooler engineered specifically for the 2001-2005 Chevrolet and GMC 6.6L Duramax LB7/LLY trucks. Finished in stealth black, this intercooler pairs heavy-duty cast aluminum end tanks with a bar-and-plate core that dwarfs the factory unit, giving your Duramax the cooling capacity to handle serious boost.
A high-performance diesel engine relies on a cool, dense charge of air to reach its full power potential, and that’s exactly what this Mishimoto forced induction upgrade is built to deliver. By replacing the restrictive stock intercooler with a significantly larger bar-and-plate core, this induction system improves airflow and lowers intake air temperatures, which in turn helps reduce EGTs and takes stress off the turbo, extending its service life. Whether your 6.6L Duramax is running stock or has been modified for more performance induction, the increased core volume of this Mishimoto forced induction system is designed to support substantial boost pressures while keeping charge temperatures in check.
