PDI Front Mount Intercooler Kit suit Hilux N70 1KD

$1,700.00 incl. GST

Unlock the full potential of your Toyota Hilux N70 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 Hilux N70 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
Whether you’re towing, touring or pushing your build hard, this is one of the most effective intercooler upgrades for turbo diesel Hilux N70 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
  • 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. If you are running an aftermarket airbox let us know in the comments section of your order so we can supply a different hot side pipe.
Stainless MAP filter is to replace the factory plastic unit, that cracks and a pressure lower (than actual value) is measured at the ECU. The ECU then tightens the vanes to achieve target boost, which can overheat and damage the vanes.

Additional Information

After fitting to a couple of high powered Hilux’s, which already had a front mount intercooler, we have seen an increase in power delivery across the range as this larger core has allowed an even more aggressive tune.

Why Front Mount Beats Top Mount

Top mount intercoolers are popular due to ease of installation and bonnet scoop aesthetics but they simply can’t match the performance of a properly designed front mount.

A front mount intercooler delivers:

  • Better cooling at both low and high speeds
  • Consistent airflow regardless of driving conditions
  • Lower intake temps and improved engine efficiency

EGT Gauge.

If you plan to install an EGT probe, we recommend doing this into the dump pipe after the turbo. Recently we have decided to stock an EGT probe system that uses a Class A probe with 2m long lead and digital display making it easy to read and mount. We have another option in green that has a smaller thread for mounting into intake air temps if you wish to see how you system is performing. These can be purchased HERE

Following upgrading to the larger Mk2 kit (from a 500mm wide core) it has been reported that the engine is more responsive across the whole rpm range.

This is the largest core you can fit (possible due to our custom end tanks) and still retain the factory grille and any bumper/bullbar option. Additionally the tapering in of the headlight/grille line is matched by the end tanks to complement the design of the front of the vehicle.
