CTS Turbo intercooler for MINI Cooper S/JCW R56

The CTS Turbo direct-fit intercooler for the MINI Cooper S is suitable for standard and modified vehicles with an N16 or N18 engine, including JCW models.

The new black version with a finish for more efficient heat dissipation provides noticeably better cooling compared with the standard intercooler. The improvements are due to the high-density intercooler core and cast aluminium end tanks.

Features:

• CTS Turbo core dimensions: 23″ × 1.75″ × 8.75″ = 352.00 cubic inches
• Standard R56 core dimensions: 21.25″ × 2.55″ × 3.35″ = 181.5 cubic inches
• 283% larger frontal area compared with the standard intercooler
• 194% greater volume compared with the standard intercooler
• Gain of up to 10–15 whp and 10–12 ft-lbs; on tuned vehicles, it practically eliminates heat soak
• Direct fitment – uses the original mounting points
• Fills the bumper opening
• High-density bar-and-plate core
• Cast aluminium air end tanks, CAD/FEM-optimised for efficient airflow
