PDI Upgraded Front Mount Intercooler Kit suit Mazda BT50 3.2L 2011-2020

$1,600.00 incl. GST

Unlock the full potential of your Mazda BT50 with the PDI Front Mount Intercooler Kit engineered for maximum airflow, lower exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) and serious gains in turbo diesel performance.
Designed for 4WD enthusiasts, touring setups and high performance builds, this kit delivers superior cooling efficiency compared to traditional top mount intercoolers especially under load, towing and off road conditions.
The PDI front mount design provides direct airflow through the grille, ensuring the intercooler receives the coldest possible air. This results in significantly lower intake temperatures, improved combustion efficiency and more usable power.
With large 2.5” stainless steel intercooler piping and a high efficiency bar and plate core, this is a true high performance intercooler upgrade for Mazda BT50 turbo diesel engines.

Testing shows the PDI front mount dramatically outperforms both factory and aftermarket intercoolers:

  • Significantly lower intake air temperatures (IATs)
  • Up to 100°C reduction in EGTs under load
  • Improved air fuel ratios, fuel economy and engine response
  • Supports high horsepower builds
  • various hot side piping designs to accommodate many different turbo and airbox combinations.
Whether you’re towing, touring or pushing your build hard, this is one of the most effective intercooler upgrades for turbo diesel BT50 vehicles available.

Built for Real 4WD Conditions

  • Bar and plate intercooler core for maximum durability
  • 2.5” stainless steel pipework for strength and airflow
  • No piping through wheel arches reduced risk of damage off road
  • Retains compatibility with factory dual battery setups
  • Mounted behind the grille for faster cooling and reduced heat soak
It’s no coincidence that OEM manufacturers place radiators at the front, airflow matters.

Additional Information

PDI have chosen a 76mm thick intercooler core for the BT50 (700x300x76mm). These units are highly effective at allowing these cars to continue to perform under load as well and running leaner under all conditions. The large core is not compatible with a transmission cooler.

If you are after the Intercooler and Transmission Kit purchase the Ford Ranger PX 2 Kit from HERE

Fully cast end tanks ensures they are the strongest possible and least likely to split along a seam. We have had the air temperature sensor cast into the end tank as well as a oil drain.

All piping is stainless steel and the turbo side piping is rerouted to be significantly shorter and with a single 63mm pipe.

Core is positioned further back at the bottom to allow the fitment of a winch.

The centre (vertical) support is part of the radiator support panel and can not be purchased individually and welded into the original panel. The facelift used a new bonnet latch (attached with 2 bolts) and the centre support design sits slightly further back. After removing the lower bolt we found that the latch was still rock solid so to replicate the design of the PX2 we would cut the lower mount from both the latch and the centre support. The updated intercooler will then be able to sit under the latch and if the intercooler still hits we would consider adding thicker spacers behind the upper intercooler mount or adjusting the centre support in the area just under the latch.
