Mishimoto Intercooler

2009–2012 Dodge Ram 2500 / 3500 6.7L Diesel

Part #: MMINT-RAM-10BK

Overview

The Mishimoto Black Intercooler is a high-performance upgrade designed specifically for Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with the 6.7L Cummins inline-6 diesel engine from 2009 through 2012. Engineered to reduce intake air temperatures and improve airflow, this intercooler enhances combustion efficiency and lowers exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs), contributing to better engine performance and longevity. Whether your Ram is stock or modified, this intercooler delivers reliable cooling to support increased boost levels and demanding driving conditions.

Built to endure the rigors of heavy-duty use, the Mishimoto intercooler is an ideal solution for Cummins owners seeking improved boost response, thermal management, and durability without compromising reliability.

Key Features

This intercooler combines advanced engineering and premium materials to provide superior cooling and strength. Key features include:

• Bar-and-plate core construction for enhanced heat dissipation and structural integrity
• Cast aluminum end tanks offering robust durability and resistance to cracking
• 52% greater internal core volume compared to the factory intercooler for improved cooling capacity
• Larger-than-stock intercooler outlets to increase airflow and reduce pressure drop
• Direct-fit design mounts in the factory location for straightforward installation
• Two silicone boots featuring Mishimoto’s DuraCore technology for superior resistance to heat, pressure, fuel, and oil
• Constant tension T-bolt clamps ensure a secure, leak-free connection
• Sleek black finish that complements the engine bay aesthetics
• Backed by Mishimoto’s lifetime warranty for peace of mind

Construction & Design

The Mishimoto intercooler is constructed with high-quality cast aluminum end tanks paired with a dense bar-and-plate core. This combination delivers exceptional strength and thermal efficiency, allowing the intercooler to withstand high boost pressures and harsh operating environments without failure. The significantly increased core volume enhances the intercooler’s ability to cool intake air more effectively, reducing intake temperatures and improving overall engine performance.

The included silicone boots utilize Mishimoto’s proprietary DuraCore technology, which features a synthetic inner layer that greatly improves resistance to heat, pressure, fuel, and oil exposure. This advanced material prevents leaks and blowouts, extending the durability and reliability of the entire intercooler system.

Installation & Fitment

The Mishimoto intercooler is designed as a direct replacement for the factory unit, fitting perfectly into the stock mounting location without requiring any modifications. It is compatible with the following Dodge Ram models equipped with the 6.7L Cummins engine:

• 2009–2010 Dodge Ram 3500 (Laramie, SLT, ST, SXT)
• 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 (Laramie, SLT, ST, SXT, TRX)
• 2011–2012 Dodge Ram 2500 (Laramie, Laramie Longhorn, Outdoorsman, SLT, ST)
• 2011–2012 Dodge Ram 3500 (Laramie, Laramie Longhorn, SLT, ST)

Installation typically requires only basic hand tools and can be completed by experienced DIYers or professional technicians. The included silicone boots and constant tension T-bolt clamps simplify assembly and ensure a secure, leak-free fit.
