Your turbo Tacoma, 4Runner or Land Cruiser spends its life battling heat. Our front mount intercooler swaps the restrictive factory unit for a bar and plate core that fills the entire grille opening, keeping intake temperatures in check no matter how steep the climb or how hot the desert sun.
The numbers tell the story, we kept the OEM width, then added 11 mm of height and 16 mm of thickness for about a 9 percent bump in frontal area and roughly 16 percent more internal volume. The result is a drop in pressure from 2.4 psi to just 1.2 psi, which cuts turbo outlet temperatures by 48 °F and lowers post intercooler temps by 14 °F.
Robust cast aluminum end tanks smooth airflow into and out of the core while shrugging off trail debris, each tank is CNC machined for perfect hose fit, then pressure tested to twice the factory boost level.
The intercooler delivers proven performance with dyno results showing gains of up to 15.5 hp and 14.4 lb-ft of torque over stock. Peak output increased to 264.10 hp and 302.97 lb-ft, with improved response and efficiency across the entire RPM range. This is real, repeatable power you can feel on and off the road.
