Description
Upgrade the cooling performance of your Gen3 MINI with the CTS Turbo Direct Fit Intercooler, specifically designed for the F-series MINI Cooper/S B46/B48 platform. The factory intercooler can be insufficient in hotter climates and is prone to heat soak during spirited driving, an issue that becomes even more noticeable after engine tuning. Upgrading to the CTS Turbo intercooler helps reduce intake air temperatures, improve cooling efficiency, and provide greater power consistency under demanding driving conditions.
The CTS Turbo intercooler features 51.9% more volume than the stock intercooler, providing improved cooling efficiency, significantly reduced pressure drop, and less resistance. The intercooler core and cast end tanks are manufactured from high-quality materials for improved durability and performance.
This is a direct-fit intercooler designed for straightforward installation. No trimming, cutting, or adjustments are required. Simply remove the factory intercooler and install the CTS Turbo FMIC.
