Description
The Mishimoto MMINT-LAN-789 is a direct-fit aluminum intercooler engineered specifically as a bolt-on upgrade for the factory intercooler on the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 7, 8, and 9. Built from TIG-welded aluminum for durability, this forced induction intercooler delivered a dyno-proven 24.5 horsepower increase over the stock intercooler setup during testing.
Cooler, denser intake air means a forced induction system can work more efficiently, and that’s the core purpose of this performance induction upgrade. By combining a large aluminum core with an aluminum inlet tank, the Mishimoto intercooler improves cooling efficiency across your induction system, helping to reduce heat soak during hard driving sessions. Whether you’re focused on improving throttle response or simply want a forced induction intercooler proven on the dyno, this unit is designed as a straightforward replacement for the restrictive factory piece, keeping intake temperatures in check without complicated fabrication.
Vehicle Applications
This is a specific-fit intercooler (not universal) engineered for the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution produced from 2003 through 2006. It also covers the Lancer Evolution MR and Lancer Evolution RS trims for the 2005-2006 model years, as well as the Lancer Evolution SE trim for 2006. Because it’s built as a direct bolt-on replacement for these Evo 7, 8, and 9 chassis, it follows the factory mounting layout.
