Replaces the factory intercooler using the original mounting locations.
This intercooler includes a 3-year warranty covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship.
The warranty does not cover damage resulting from incorrect installation, modifications, misuse, external impacts or normal wear and tear.
Help keep intake temperatures under control with a larger, more efficient intercooler for your Pajero.
This upgraded intercooler features a high-flow bar-and-plate core with 25% more heat-transfer surface area than the factory intercooler, helping improve cooling performance when your Pajero is working harder.
The core was designed and calculated using professional heat-exchanger software, with a focus on improving heat transfer rather than simply increasing its size.
Ideal for towing, touring, beach driving and off-road use, it features full aluminium construction, TIG-welded end tanks and is pressure tested up to 3 bar.
It's also a direct replacement for the factory intercooler, with no modifications required.
We run this exact intercooler on our own Pajero, and have put it through long-distance trips, beach driving and regular towing. Fitment has been tested on our vehicle, with installation photos available.

Just fitted this replacement intercooler and the silicone hoses to my Paj yesterday. I am a tradie but not a mechanic and I was able to install these items in my driveway at home with minimal fuss. Finishing off the install of the hoses on the top of the intercooler wasn't the most fun but that is not at all due to the product, it's just the reality of working in an awkward spot on the Pajero. Everything fitted without any need for modification, just straight bolt in replacement. The clamps for the hoses are great quality too, not cheap standard hose clamps.
I've only completed minimal driving since installing but I'm super impressed so far. No more boost leak noise from my original damaged intercooler and the power delivery is better which could just be because I'm not losing boost anymore but either way, I'm very happy with these products.
Great, quick response from this business to any of my enquiries pre purchase. Will happily support them again in the future for anymore needs for my Paj.
Hi Troy, thank you for sharing your positive experience! We're glad the intercooler and hoses met your expectations and that the installation went smoothly. We appreciate your support and look forward to assisting you again in the future.
Awesome!
I decided to give a new life to my Pajero’s air intake system and invested in the BGT 4x4 stage two intercooler plus silicone hoses. I am not too experienced with mechanical works, but do a fair bit of DIY, so after watching a few YouTube videos, I decided to take on the swap myself. It took me a good five hours, including the fixing of a broken fan shroud clip (oops..) and replenishing the lost coolant from the disconnected radiator hose with a system bleed. The trickiest part was the removal and replacement of the bottom fan shroud attachment, but I took my time and got there finally. Test drove the car and everything is running super smooth. Having the upgraded system gives me some piece of mind when doing heavy 4wd work.
Looking good Baz! Thanks for the review and enjoy your new mods!
Very happy with my new intercooler from BGT4X4. The quality is great, shipped same day and is a very good price! It was also very well packaged. Thank you!
No worries mate enjoy!
Great upgrade. Just towed my 2.5 ton van from Victoria to Queensland with the new intercooler in my NT Pagero. Definitely noticed the difference going up hills. Only negative is that my mechanic said he had to modify a bracket to fit it onto place; there is no mention of this in the website. Still he said it was pretty straight forward. Worth the investment. Thanks BGT 4x4.
Awesome to hear Anthony! We are getting those brackets sorted right this minute as the manufacturer had an oopsie.
I have a NW Pajero and the factory intercooler has taken a hit to one of the bottom mounts, equals slightly bent but still functioning… is this bottom mount just a locator?
Hey Steve the bottom mounts are steel and just a bracket so won't impact the intercooler unless the core is hit as well which will cause it to leak :)
Can you fit this without any tuning? I've already got a 3" exhaust but want to eventually do the turbo as well
Sure can! No tuning required however Do all the mods first then tuning last for best results 🙂
Do all the necessary fittings come with inter cooler?
Hi Angus. It is just a matter of taking off the old intercooler, exchanging the rubber mounts onto the new one, and then putting it back in. There isn't anything else required. Cheers!
Just confirming this unit takes up no more room than old one, as I have a winch cradle up front, room is at a premium. Also all current hoses will fit it? Cheers
Hey Steve, it will simply replace the current intercooler so still usable with winch and factory hoses :)
