Description
The Mishimoto MMINT-MUS4-15KWSL is a purpose-built bar-and-plate performance intercooler engineered specifically for the 2015-2023 Ford Mustang EcoBoost, delivering a 58-percent larger core and a 35 F (19.45 C) reduction in intake air temperature without requiring any modification to the vehicle. Because turbocharged 4-cylinder engines generate extremely hot charge air quickly and stock tube-and-fin intercoolers heat soak easily, Mishimoto designed this direct-fit unit to keep intake air temperatures consistently low run after run.
This kit brings a genuine forced induction upgrade to the Mustang’s induction system by pairing a high-efficiency intercooler core with matched hot-side and cold-side intercooler pipes, letting owners of a turbocharged induction engine update the entire charge-air path in one install. With a 25-percent increase in internal core volume and a 165-percent increase in external fin surface area, this performance induction upgrade is engineered to sustain cooling capacity under repeated hard pulls, whether on track or aggressive street driving, while the cast, CFD-tested end tanks and in-tank air diverter keep airflow moving efficiently through the forced induction system.
Vehicle Applications
This intercooler is a specific-fit part designed for the 2015-2023 Ford Mustang EcoBoost and Ford Mustang EcoBoost Premium, built on the S550 chassis with the 2.3L EcoBoost engine. It mounts in the factory intercooler location, working with the stock active grille shutters and avoiding airflow blockage to the radiator and AC condenser.
