MINT25 is a performance intercooler for the Toyota Yaris GR, GR Corolla, produced, designed, and tested at the Forge headquarters in Gloucester UK. Throughout the development process they have strived to improve the efficiency and performance of the GR’s 1.6T engine. The project brief was to develop an intercooler utilising all of the available space available in the original position of the OEM intercooler, and to ensure the inlet air temperature is reduced, without any negative effects on the boost pressure or engine and transmission cooling.

Using a combination of scanning software and traditional measuring methods, this design was created. This was then fine tuned by the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) team, and the end tanks were initially created by 3D printers. They then alloy cast the first prototypes from the 3D prints using a sand casting technique and started the testing procedure on several types of intercooler cores.

The first iteration fitted the vehicle perfectly, however, the Forge technicians and engineers felt the inlet and outlet should be enlarged along with providing the end user with the necessary boost pipes to ensure flow was maximized on the Toyota`s GR 3 cylinder engine
