Wagner Tuning Mini Cooper S Facelift (Incl. JCW/Non GP2 Models) Competition Intercooler

This is the Wagner Tuning Competition Intercooler, specifically made for the Mini Cooper S Facelift models, including the JCW and non-GP2 versions. If you're pushing your Mini's turbocharged engine hard, especially with performance tuning or track use, managing intake air temperature is crucial. This intercooler is designed to replace your stock unit and significantly improve its ability to cool the air charge coming from the turbocharger before it enters the engine.

The core of this intercooler is a well-built, high-performance unit featuring a generous surface area and internal fin design. This setup allows for much more efficient heat dissipation compared to the factory intercooler. Cooler intake air means denser air, which allows your engine to burn fuel more effectively. For the Mini Cooper S, this translates to more consistent power output, especially during prolonged periods of high demand like track days or spirited driving, and it helps prevent heat soak that can rob performance. The end tanks are constructed from cast aluminum, ensuring a solid connection and durability. Wagner Tuning designs these intercoolers for a direct fit, meaning it bolts up to the factory mounting points and integrates with the stock plumbing with minimal modification, making installation more straightforward.

When installing this intercooler, you'll want to ensure all connections are secure to prevent any boost leaks. It's a substantial upgrade for any Mini Cooper S owner looking to maximize their engine's performance potential, particularly when running increased boost levels or other engine modifications. Please note that this intercooler is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
