Description
The Mishimoto MMINT-RGR-11KSLBK is a direct-fit forced induction upgrade built specifically for the 2011+ Ford Ranger 3.2L Diesel, combining a silver bar-and-plate intercooler core with black, mandrel-bent aluminum intercooler piping. This performance induction package replaces the factory setup with a core that delivers a 146% increase in core volume and a 159% increase in fin surface area over the stock intercooler, giving this small but capable diesel truck a cooling upgrade to match its performance potential.
As the heart of the truck’s forced induction system, the intercooler is responsible for cooling compressed air before it reaches the engine, and a more efficient core means more consistent charge temperatures under load. Mishimoto’s bar-and-plate core is precision TIG-welded to cast-aluminum end tanks for added durability and resistance to heat and pressure, while the mandrel-bent aluminum piping eliminates the harsh bends found in restrictive factory rubber and plastic hoses. Together, this induction upgrade is designed to outlast the factory components while supporting the demands of a more capable induction engine setup. This particular kit pairs the silver intercooler core with black powder-coated piping to suit a sleeker, stealthier engine bay look.
Vehicle Applications
This Mishimoto intercooler kit is a specific fit for the 2011 and newer Ford Ranger equipped with the 3.2L Duratorq Diesel engine, covering the XL, XLS, XLT, FX4, and Wildtrak trim levels. Note that trimming of the factory intercooler shrouding is required to fit this intercooler.
