Huge surface area, but still allows plently of airflow to top section of the radiator, this is essential for hotter climate countries.
Please note: This kit is a custom install and will require air con to be removed & some minor cutting under the bonnet.
Please note this intercooler is only available in satin black. The Airtec R53 front mount intercooler does not work with the MINI aircon radiator - the aircon must be removed for the front mount to be installed, and further modifications to the radiator surround, bonnet and scoop may be required. We recommend installation by a specialist garage, due to the modifications needed for it to fit, and due to Airtec not including fitting instructions.

“Very tricky to fit, silicone pipes to diverter pipes are very difficult to get leak proof, jubilee clips supplied are very poor quality and won’t tighten sufficiently. Alignment of some of welded joints not good. Quite extensive alteration to bonnet support panels required and slam panel to allow bonnet to close. Not designed or manufactured particularly well in my opinion.”
