Description
The Mishimoto Performance Intercooler Kit (MMINT-F2D-99KSLP) is a complete stock-replacement forced induction upgrade built specifically for the 1999-2003 Ford 7.3L Powerstroke. At its core sits Mishimoto’s proven bar-and-plate intercooler, originally engineered for the 6.0L Powerstroke and now expertly repurposed for 7.3L applications, paired with custom Mishimoto DuraCore silicone boots designed for a precise 7.3L fit.
This forced induction system is engineered to lower air charge temperatures and reduce EGTs so your truck runs cooler and more consistently at any power level. The bar-and-plate core delivers a 32.5% increase in core volume over the stock 7.3L intercooler and measures 3.35 inches thick, 33% thicker than the factory unit, reducing pressure drop while feeding your engine denser, cooler air. Cast aluminum end tanks are strategically shaped for optimal airflow, while mandrel-bent aluminum piping, DuraCore silicone boots, and constant-tension T-bolt clamps round out a durable, leak-resistant induction system that reduces stress on the turbo and helps extend engine life. Whether you’re restoring stock reliability or building a more capable performance induction package, this kit gives the 7.3L Powerstroke an upgrade path beyond the limitations of the factory intercooler.
