Mishimoto just shared with us its final prototype design for its S550 Mustang EcoBoost Intercooler. The lengthy modeling work that went into this design was created to fit into the same space occupied by the stock intercooler which also retains the stock intercooler connections.
“For this cooler we were concerned with pushing air to the entire thickness of the cooler. During the design of this cooler we experimented with internal end tank diverters. We’ve used these diverters on a few of our taller coolers to help promote airflow to the full length of the intercooler. By doing so we can take full advantage of the large core,” says Mishimoto.
Check out their air dispersion tests of the Mishimoto prototype intercooler with and without a diverter.
