Description
Upgrade the reliability, performance, and style of your Gen 1 MINI Cooper S (model years 2002–2006, R53 chassis, 1.6 L supercharged engine) with the M7 Speed 4-Ply Silicone Intercooler Boot Set in Red—an advanced solution for enthusiasts who demand more than stock rubber connectors can deliver.
Over time, the factory rubber intercooler boots dry-rot, crack, and leak under heat and boost pressure, leading to loss of power, inconsistent boost levels, and reduced throttle response. The M7 Speed kit eliminates these weak points with precision-engineered, 100 % fiber-reinforced, 4-ply silicone connectors that are purpose-built for high-performance applications.
Key Engineering Advantages
-
Premium 4-Ply Fiber Reinforcement
Each boot is constructed from heat-resistant, oil-resistant silicone reinforced with four layers of woven fiber. This design provides exceptional burst-pressure strength and maintains flexibility across a wide temperature range, ensuring reliability in both daily driving and extreme track conditions. -
Optimized Dimensions
The M7 boots are longer and slightly thicker than typical aftermarket connectors, creating a tighter, more secure seal between the intercooler core and the inlet/outlet horns. This enhanced geometry dramatically reduces the risk of boost leaks—even when running high-boost pulleys or aftermarket superchargers. -
High-Boost Ready
Engineered to withstand the demands of performance builds, track days, and aggressive tuning, these boots maintain structural integrity under elevated manifold pressures where standard rubber components fail. -
Direct OEM Replacement
Designed to work seamlessly with the factory intercooler or popular aftermarket units, installation is straightforward and requires no special tools. The kit is a true plug-and-play upgrade for any R53 MINI Cooper S.
Visual Impact
Beyond function, the vivid Red silicone finish adds a custom, motorsport-inspired accent to your engine bay. For those seeking other styles, M7 also offers these boots in Black, Green, and Blue, allowing you to match your personal aesthetic.
