Weapon R Upper Intercooler Piping Kit for 08-09 Mitsubishi Evolution X

This is the Weapon R Upper Intercooler Piping Kit specifically for the 2008-2014 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X. This kit replaces the stock rubber intercooler piping with more rigid aluminum tubing, which is crucial for maintaining consistent boost pressure and airflow to your turbocharger. When your turbo spools up, it forces a lot of air into the intercooler, and then into the engine. Stock rubber hoses can expand under this pressure, restricting airflow and reducing performance. This kit helps prevent that expansion.

Weapon R builds this kit using durable aluminum tubing. Aluminum is chosen here because it's lightweight and won't expand under boost like rubber can. The smooth interior of the aluminum pipes also helps improve airflow compared to the corrugated rubber hoses they replace. This means your turbo can push air more efficiently, leading to a more responsive engine and potentially improved power delivery. The kit is designed to fit right into your Evolution X, making installation more straightforward than custom solutions.

When installing this kit, it's a good idea to have some basic hand tools ready. While it's designed as a direct replacement, always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the most accurate installation details. This kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
