Mishimoto Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 7/8/9 Intercooler Pipe Kit Black

If you're looking to get the most out of your Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 7, 8, or 9's turbo system, especially if you've upgraded for higher horsepower, improving airflow to and from the intercooler is a critical step. This Mishimoto intercooler pipe kit is designed to replace the restrictive stock piping, which often has bends that hinder smooth airflow. By using mandrel-bent aluminum pipes, Mishimoto ensures a consistent diameter throughout the pipe, allowing your turbocharger to spool up faster and more efficiently. This means you'll feel a more responsive engine and potentially see improved performance, especially in modified vehicles.

The kit includes silicone couplers that are a significant upgrade over the stock rubber ones. These silicone couplers can handle higher temperatures and boost pressures, which is essential for a high-performance turbo setup. Mishimoto also adds bead rolls to the ends of the aluminum pipes. This detail is important because it helps create a secure seal with the couplers, preventing leaks and keeping the couplers from slipping off under pressure. Whether your Evo is a daily driver or a dedicated track car, optimizing your charge air system with well-made components like these pipes can make a notable difference in how your car performs.

This kit is a solid option for Evo owners looking to refine their forced induction system. Mishimoto backs this product with their Lifetime Warranty, which speaks to their confidence in the quality and durability of their parts. When installing, pay attention to how the couplers seat and ensure the bead rolls are properly engaged for a leak-free connection.
