Airtec Motorsport intercooler upgrade for the Mitsubishi Colt CZT, developed as a reliable cooling upgrade for track use and sporty street useThis intercooler is part of the growing Airtec Motorsport range for Mitsubishi models.
To prevent performance loss during prolonged heavy loads, Airtec Motorsport has developed a larger and freer-flowing intercooler Developed as a direct replacement for the smaller and more restrictive OEM intercooler, this ensures more stable performance during intensive driving.
Within the limited space behind the bumper and crash bar, a choice was made 50 mm twin-pass coreThis construction provides a significant increase in total capacity and a clearly larger frontal surface compared to standard, which makes optimal use of the available airflow.
In combination with high-flow end tanks, which ensure efficient and even airflow, the Airtec Motorsport intercooler offers a significant improvement in cooling efficiency and volume compared to the original intercooler.
The complete kit comes with silicone hose connections, stainless steel hose clamps and all necessary mounting hardware. The original crash bar remains and installation is required no adjustment to the bumper.
