Mishimoto Intercooler Pipe and Boot Kit: Dodge Ram 3500 (09-10) / Ram 2500 (10-12) / Ram 3500 (11-12)

Mishimoto Intercooler Pipe and Boot Kit

2009–2012 Dodge Ram 2500 / Ram 3500 6.7L Cummins

MMICP-RAM-10BK

Overview:

The Mishimoto Intercooler Pipe and Boot Kit is a precision-engineered upgrade designed specifically for Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with the 6.7L Cummins diesel engine from model years 2009 through 2012. This kit replaces the factory intercooler piping with high-quality mandrel-bent aluminum pipes that improve airflow and reduce exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs), resulting in enhanced engine performance and reliability. Ideal for diesel enthusiasts and professionals seeking to maximize power and efficiency, this kit addresses common weaknesses found in the stock plastic and smaller diameter pipes.

By upgrading to Mishimoto’s intercooler piping and durable silicone boots, owners can expect improved throttle response, better boost delivery, and increased longevity of the intercooler system components. This kit is engineered to work seamlessly with Mishimoto’s performance intercooler, making it a comprehensive solution for those looking to optimize their Dodge Ram’s diesel performance.

Key Features:

Designed with performance and durability in mind, the Mishimoto Intercooler Pipe and Boot Kit offers the following key benefits:

• Mandrel-bent aluminum pipes eliminate restrictive factory bends for improved airflow
• Increased pipe diameter from 3 inches to 3.5 inches enhances boost efficiency and reduces EGTs
• Replaces weak factory plastic cold-side pipe and small diameter hot-side pipe for greater reliability
• Mishimoto DuraCore silicone boots provide superior resistance to heat, pressure, fuel, and oil
• Constant-tension T-bolt clamps ensure a secure, leak-free connection under high boost conditions
• Engineered specifically for 2009–2012 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 6.7L Cummins diesel engines
• Compatible with Mishimoto performance intercoolers for a complete upgrade solution
• Manufactured in the USA and backed by Mishimoto’s lifetime warranty

Construction & Design:

The intercooler pipes are crafted from high-grade mandrel-bent aluminum, which maintains consistent diameter through bends to optimize airflow and minimize turbulence. This design eliminates the restrictive curves found in the factory piping, allowing the turbocharged engine to breathe more efficiently. The increase in pipe diameter from 3 inches to 3.5 inches further reduces pressure drop and heat buildup, contributing to lower exhaust gas temperatures and improved engine performance.

Mishimoto’s proprietary DuraCore silicone boots form the critical connection points between pipes and intercooler components. These boots feature a multi-layer synthetic inner core that resists degradation from extreme heat, pressure, fuel, and oil exposure—common challenges in diesel applications. The inclusion of constant-tension T-bolt clamps ensures a tight, vibration-resistant seal that prevents leaks and blowouts during demanding driving conditions.

Installation & Fitment:

The Mishimoto Intercooler Pipe and Boot Kit is designed for a direct bolt-on installation with no modifications required, fitting perfectly on Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 models from 2009 to 2012 equipped with the 6.7L Cummins engine. The kit replaces the factory cold-side plastic pipe and the smaller hot-side pipe, providing a robust and reliable upgrade. Installation can typically be completed with basic hand tools and moderate mechanical experience, making it accessible for both professional shops and knowledgeable enthusiasts.

What's Included:

• Mandrel-bent aluminum intercooler pipes (cold-side and hot-side)
• Mishimoto DuraCore silicone boots
• Constant-tension T-bolt clamps
• Installation hardware and instructions

Ideal For:

This intercooler pipe and boot kit is ideal for Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 owners who demand improved performance and durability from their 6.7L Cummins diesel engines. It is especially suited for those who tow heavy loads, engage in off-road driving, or have upgraded their turbo or intercooler systems and require enhanced airflow and thermal management. The kit is also a smart replacement for anyone experiencing issues with factory plastic pipes such as cracking, leaks, or boost loss.
