For All Supercharged Powered Mini R53 Cooper S
For BMW MINI Cooper S R53 R50 R52 2002-2006
Part Number: 22316779909, 22316765331, 22316779907, 11651515368, 1515368
Testing Details:
Standard Intercooler - Peak power 204.9 bhp & 161.1 Ib/ft
Run 1 -Temperature Into intercooler from charger 150 degree & Out of Intercooler into engine 123 degree
Run 2 -Temperature Into intercooler from charger 152 degree & Out of Intercooler into engine 130 degree
Run 3 -Temperature Into intercooler from charger 155 degree & Out of Intercooler into engine 135 degree
Conclusion - the standard intercooler on a tuned Mini just doesn't work, most owners know this, here's the proof for other owners that didn't know.
Racing Intercooler 60mm thickness core - Peak power 233.3.0 bhp & 190.5 Ib/ft
Run 1 -Temperature Into intercooler from charger 130 degree & Out of Intercooler into engine 44 degree
Run 2 -Temperature Into intercooler from charger 137 degree & Out of Intercooler into engine 47 degree
Run 3 -Temperature Into intercooler from charger 149 degree & Out of Intercooler into engine 49 degree
Conclusion - The 60mm one works really well and keeps temps below 50 degree's, could handle highly tuned Mini's intake temps.
Racing Intercooler Details:
1 x Full Aluminum intercooler
Inlet/Outlet: 1.89"/1.89"（48MM）
Core Size: 9.13" x 11.81" x 2.4" （ 232*300*60 MM）
Overall Size：10.08" x 16.65" x 2.55" （256*423*65 MM）
Description:
When the charged air enters the end tank, it travels through the tubes of an Intercooler, in which the heat is transferred via fins, where cooler ambient air passes over the tubes. This mechanism further removes heat from air before exiting the opposite end tank and routing to the engine.
Bar and Plate Intercooler functions identically to the Tube and Fin Core, with the exception that, charged air travels through its rectangular shaped passages, which have more surface area; thus, improves cooling effect and power of the charged air. The advantage of this type of intercoolers is that, since the bar and plate core affords up to 35% larger surface area for cooling, a physically smaller intercooler can be used and still retains the cooling efficiency of a larger tube and fin design. This is important for a builder who has a vehicle with a compact opening on the top of it or when there are immovable obstructions present.
