Description
The Performance Top Mount Intercooler (TMIC) provides solid power gains and a great value to the Mazdaspeed 3, MS6 and CX7 turbo. Made from CorkSport’s own custom cast end tanks which are TIG welded to a 3.0” thick bar and plate core, the Mazdaspeed TMIC provides added performance by removing the bottleneck restriction of the stock intercooler and increasing resistance to heat soak by using thicker materials. The cold pipe connection is CNC milled and drilled for a leak proof connection and all bolt holes have been capped off.
The Performance Mazda Advantage
Better Cooling:
16 Rows of Cooling Fins help drastically lower post turbo air temperatures. Proven on a SuperFlow test bench to provide 46% more airflow over the stock intercooler.
More Capacity:
With 3.0" of thickness, the extra capacity allows significant cooling capabilities. During testing, the Mazdaspeed 3 TMIC showed an average decrease in pressure across the core by 53% and an increase in overall efficiency of 25% over the stock intercooler.
Cast Aluminum:
End tanks made of cast aluminum are durable and long lasting. Plus with a bar and plate intercooler core, you remove bottlenecking for more power with less boost.

Love it. It dropped my BATs a bit and let me run a lower WGDC which still getting the same boost levels. Looks pretty much stock with the slightly modified stock shroud.
Greg
Would have liked the OEM shroud to have fit without bending the periphereal IC cooler fins.

This TMIC is definitely an upgrade you can feel! You can sense the car breathing in more air and hitting boost sooner which makes driving all that much better!

LOve this TMIC, sold off the new CPe and can not tell the difference at all between a much higher priced one...love it and I love the most that I got to reuse my OEM cover for once!
