Description
The Mishimoto MMINT-FIST-14KPBK is a purpose-built intercooler kit engineered specifically for the 1.6L Ecoboost-powered Ford Fiesta ST, the winning design after Mishimoto’s engineers evaluated multiple prototypes to find the ideal balance of cooling capacity and weight. Finished in this Black Cooler, Silver Pipes configuration, it pairs a tube-and-fin aluminum core with all-new hot-side and cold-side piping to give the Fiesta ST’s forced induction system real headroom for sustained boost.
As the heart of the Fiesta ST’s forced induction system, this intercooler is built to move more air, cooler, without adding unnecessary mass. Mishimoto chose tube-and-fin core construction specifically to reduce weight compared to a bar-and-plate design while still allowing airflow to reach the radiator, and testing recorded a 26°F (15°C) drop in intake air temperature versus the factory unit. With a core 51-percent larger than stock, a 25-percent increase in internal core volume, and a 226-percent increase in external fin surface area, this induction system upgrade is built to keep pace with forced induction turbo boost demands without sacrificing daily drivability. Included air diversion plates route air directly through the core for maximum efficiency, and the redesigned cold-side piping – complete with a CNC-machined sensor flange, a port for meth injection or a boost gauge, and sound symposer delete provisions – rounds out a complete performance induction package for this platform.
Vehicle Applications
This Mishimoto intercooler kit is a specific fit for the 2014-2016 Ford Fiesta ST (chassis code B3) equipped with the 1.6L Ecoboost engine. It replaces both the factory hot-side and cold-side intercooler pipes and couplers, and it also fits alongside the Mishimoto Fiesta ST Direct Fit Oil Cooler Kit for owners building out a broader cooling setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicles fit the Mishimoto MMINT-FIST-14KPBK intercooler kit?
This kit is a specific fit for the 2014-2016 Ford Fiesta ST (chassis code B3) equipped with the 1.6L Ecoboost engine.
How much does this intercooler lower intake air temperatures?
During Mishimoto’s testing, this Fiesta ST intercooler reduced intake air temperatures by 26°F (15°C).
How much larger is the core than the stock intercooler?
The core is 51-percent larger than stock and provides a 25-percent increase in internal core volume along with a 226-percent increase in external fin surface area.
What is the maximum recommended horsepower and boost pressure for this intercooler?
It is rated for approximately 325 whp and a maximum boost pressure of 40 PSI. Exceeding these limits could require a larger front-mount intercooler.
