Overview
A turbo engine's biggest enemy is heat, and our LC250s are no exception. The SXTH Element front mount intercooler replaces the restrictive factory unit for a bar and plate core that fills the entire grille opening, keeping intake air temps in check no matter the heat and load your engine may be facing. The cherry on top? No tuning required!
The numbers tell the story: SXTH Element kept the OEM width, then added 17mm of height and 12mm of thickness for about a 9 percent bump in frontal area and roughly 25 percent more internal volume. The result is a drop in pressure from 2.4 psi to just 1.2 psi, which cuts turbo outlet temperatures by 48°F and lowers post intercooler temps by 14°F.
Robust cast aluminum end tanks smooth airflow into and out of the core while shrugging off trail debris, each tank is CNC machined for perfect hose fit, then pressure tested to twice the factory boost level.
The intercooler delivers proven performance with dyno results showing gains of up to 15.5 hp and 14.4 lb-ft of torque over stock. Peak output increased to 264.10 hp and 302.97 lb-ft, with improved response and efficiency across the entire RPM range. This is real, repeatable power you can feel on and off the road.
