Description
The Mishimoto MMINT-A2W-SP-1 is a bar-and-plate air-to-water intercooler built with a same-side inlet/outlet configuration and a maximum recommended rating of 500 horsepower at up to 100 psi of boost pressure. Its cast-aluminum end tanks are TIG-welded to the core for a compact, high-pressure-tolerant cooling package that brings liquid-to-air intercooling to forced induction projects.
Air intake temperature control is central to any performance induction strategy, and this Mishimoto forced induction intercooler is engineered to reduce the heat soak and detonation risk that come with sustained boost. The bar-and-plate core and custom-engineered end tanks work together to lower pressure drop while moving charge air efficiently, making this a strong core component for anyone assembling a forced induction system, dialing in an induction system upgrade, or replacing an aging intercooler on a boosted build. The -ORB coolant ports built into the core and the CNC-machined ribbed inlet/outlet couplers are designed to make plumbing and coupler connections secure, whether you’re routing lines for a single-pass or exploring Mishimoto’s broader air-to-water lineup for a dual-pass coolant flow setup.
Vehicle Applications
Mishimoto does not tie this bar-and-plate intercooler to a single factory platform: the listed vehicle applications, engine codes, and chassis codes for this part are unspecified in the technical documentation, and it is classified as a specific-fit configuration rather than a drop-in kit. That makes it a builder’s component intended for custom forced induction installations rather than one particular make or model. To help with mounting on whatever platform you’re building around it, Mishimoto includes a sturdy 1/8-inch thick steel universal mounting bracket along with the hardware needed to secure it.
