The Wagner Competition Intercooler kit has been developed for the Mini Cooper S (R55, R56, R57, R58, R59, R60, R61) and ensures optimum airflow and cooling, delivering a significant boost in performance. Installation involves a simple plug-and-play replacement of the factory Intercooler, without the need for major modifications.
With dimensions of 550 mm x 210 mm x 110 mm (stepped, 12.70 litres), this intercooler offers a 230% larger inlet surface area and 190% more charge air volume than the standard Intercooler. The Competition high-performance mesh ensures sufficient airflow to adjacent components such as the water cooler. The CAD-designed, free-form cast aluminium end caps optimise internal airflow and minimise back pressure. Weighing just 5.6 kg, the intercooler is lightweight and easy to fit, and the high-quality anti-corrosion coating with heat-conducting properties guarantees long-lasting and optimal cooling. The kit fits as a plug-and-play solution on the Mini Cooper S Clubman R55/R56 facelift (2009–2014, incl. JCW), Cabrio R57 facelift (2009–2015, incl. JCW), Coupé R58 (2010–2015, including JCW), Roadster R59 (2011–2015), Countryman R60 (2010–2016) and Paceman R61 (2012–2016). With minor modifications to the bumper, it is also suitable for the pre-facelift R55–R57 models (2006–2010).
