Intercooler Core

The foundation of any great FMIC is its core—and this one is engineered from the ground up for unmatched performance. Using over a decade of intercooler development, GrimmSpeed created a fully custom cross-flow core with internal and external fin specs tuned for:

• Extremely low pressure drop
• Superior heat rejection
• Consistent performance under everyday and high-demand conditions

The cast end tanks were co-developed with the core to deliver smooth, even airflow across all cylinders. Every unit is designed, welded, pressure-tested, and inspected in the USA to ensure flawless operation.

Fitment was equally important. This kit retains a massive intercooler core without cutting the bumper cover, trimming light housings, or relocating components like the washer tank or coolant reservoir—common issues with other FMIC kits.

Intercooler Piping

A great core demands properly engineered piping. GrimmSpeed’s piping kit features:

• .090”-wall, 2.5” ID 6061 aluminum—strong, lightweight, and heat-dissipating
• Precision routing that avoids unnecessary trimming and retains OEM components
• Maintains factory fog light mounting
• Custom-molded 5-ply silicone couplers
• Stainless Breeze Hi-Torque liner clamps to protect silicone and prevent leaks
• Wrinkle powdercoat finish
• OEM bypass valve placement retained for OE or most aftermarket BPV compatibility
