Description
Mishimoto’s MMINT-A2W-SPR-1 is a purpose-built air-to-water intercooler engineered for forced induction applications, featuring a bar-and-plate aluminum core in an opposite-side inlet/outlet configuration rated for builds up to 500 horsepower. Constructed with 5mm-thick cast-aluminum end tanks that are professionally TIG-welded to the core, this Mishimoto intercooler is built to withstand up to 100 psi of boost pressure while delivering the compact cooling efficiency today’s forced induction systems demand.
Keeping intake air temperatures in check is critical to reducing heat soak and detonation while sustaining consistent power delivery from any forced induction turbo setup, and this Mishimoto air-to-water intercooler brings that liquid-to-air cooling advantage to your project. It pairs an efficient bar-and-plate core with CNC-machined ribbed inlet and outlet couplers for a secure grip between the intercooler and your induction system piping. Whether you’re dialing in a performance induction upgrade, rebuilding an aftermarket induction system, or improving charge-air cooling on a project vehicle, the MMINT-A2W-SPR-1 offers durable all-aluminum construction finished in a sleek micro wrinkle black powder coat that holds up under the hood. Mishimoto backs this force induction component with its signature Lifetime Warranty.
Vehicle Applications
The MMINT-A2W-SPR-1 is built as a Specific-fit performance component rather than a one-size-fits-all universal cooler, making it a strong foundation for custom forced induction builds, turbo swaps, and air-to-water intercooling projects where installers need precise coolant plumbing and a defined mounting footprint. Its ORB-style coolant ports, 2.75-in male inlet and outlet connections, and included 1/8-in thick steel mounting bracket are designed to simplify integration into project vehicles running forced induction turbo systems rated up to 500 horsepower with this opposite-side inlet/outlet configuration.
