Mishimoto Performance Intercooler for 1994-2002 Dodge 5.9L Cummins

Mishimoto MMINT-RAM-94SL bar-and-plate intercooler for 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 5.9L Cummins (12V/24V). 47% more core volume, 25% lower AITs.

Description

The Mishimoto MMINT-RAM-94SL is a purpose-built forced induction intercooler engineered specifically for the 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins, offered here in Sleek Silver with cast aluminum end tanks and a bar-and-plate core. As part of Mishimoto’s expanding Cummins performance parts lineup, this intercooler was designed to tackle the high intake and exhaust gas temperatures that can rob a 12V or 24V Cummins of performance and, over time, put the engine at risk.

At the heart of this forced induction system is a bar-and-plate core that delivers a 47-percent increase in core volume and is 50-percent thicker than the factory cooler, resulting in a proven 25-percent drop in AITs. A hot-side end tank features an internal air diverter that reduces turbulence and evenly distributes airflow across the core, which in turn reduces stress on the turbo and helps extend its service life. Built with durable cast aluminum end tanks and Male inlet and outlet fittings sized at 3.66 inches, this Performance-grade, vehicle-specific unit is engineered to support substantial boost pressure whether your truck is running stock or heavily modified. It’s designed to pair with the Mishimoto 5.9L Cummins Intercooler Pipe and Boot Kit and fits alongside the Mishimoto Dodge 5.9L Cummins Performance Aluminum Radiator, and it’s backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
