Mishimoto Performance Intercooler Kit 22 Plus VW GTI MK8

Mishimoto Performance Intercooler Kit for 22+ VW GTI MK8 reduces intake air temperatures to improve charge density and sustain consistent power delivery under load.

This direct-fit intercooler kit from Mishimoto includes a purpose-built intercooler core, mandrel-bent aluminum piping, and reinforced 5-layer silicone couplers engineered for high-flow turbo upgrade applications and durable track or street use.

• Direct-fit design — simplifies installation by matching OE mounting points and inlet/outlet locations, reducing install time and eliminating the need for custom brackets.
• High-capacity intercooler core — provides increased thermal mass and flow area for more effective heat rejection compared to stock, supporting consistent performance under repeated boost cycles.
• Mandrel-bent aluminum pipes — maintain smooth internal flow with consistent diameters through bends to minimize pressure drop and support high-flow turbo upgrade airflow characteristics.
• 5-layer silicone couplers — deliver enhanced durability and sealing under boost and thermal cycling for reliable, leak-free operation.

Why choose Mishimoto: Mishimoto’s motorsports-rooted engineering and quality control focus deliver components specified for repeatable performance and long-term reliability in demanding environments.
