Description
The Mishimoto MMICP-EVO-01LBK is a mandrel bent aluminum intercooler pipe kit built specifically for the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 7/8/9, finished in polished aluminum and paired with black silicone couplers. Designed with high-horsepower vehicles in mind, this kit replaces restrictive factory piping with bead-rolled aluminum tubing that helps keep couplers locked in place while keeping airflow moving efficiently through the charge air system.
Airflow efficiency is central to any forced induction system, and this Mishimoto intercooler pipe kit is engineered to support that goal on the Evolution’s turbocharged platform. The mandrel bending process preserves consistent pipe diameter through every bend, and the bead-rolled pipe ends work with the included silicone couplers to guard against leaks and coupler disconnection under boost. Compared to the stock rubber couplers, the silicone couplers included with this induction system offer increased heat and pressure tolerance, making the setup equally suited to a daily-driven Evolution or a stripped and caged time attack car. Whether you’re focused on improved turbo spool or simply want more durable intercooler piping, this Mishimoto kit is a direct upgrade path for the Evolution’s forced induction hardware.
