• Designed to channel airflow directly to the radiator, improving cooling efficiency over the factory covers or absent airflow guides.
• Precisely machined to fit the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 4 (CN9A), ensuring a perfect, bolt-on installation without modifications.
• Helps maintain consistent engine temperatures during high-performance driving, reducing the risk of overheating and associated engine damage.
• Provides a high-performance look that complements other Cusco chassis and engine bay components.
• Ideal for racing, track days, or spirited street driving where cooling performance is critical.

Construction & Design

The Cusco Radiator Cooling Plate is crafted from high-grade aluminum, chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity and lightweight properties. The plate features a precision-machined design that ensures a snug fit over the radiator area, effectively directing airflow where it’s needed most. The anodized blue finish not only adds a striking visual element but also provides resistance against corrosion and engine bay heat.

Its one-piece construction and CNC-machined edges guarantee durability and a clean, professional appearance. The design takes into account the airflow dynamics of the Evo's engine bay, optimizing cooling performance without restricting airflow to other critical components. Installation is straightforward, with pre-drilled mounting points that align perfectly with the factory mounting locations, ensuring a secure fit and reliable operation.

Performance & Sound

By improving airflow to the radiator, this cooling plate helps support better engine cooling efficiency, especially during high-stress driving scenarios. While it does not directly increase horsepower, maintaining optimal engine temperatures can contribute to more consistent power delivery and engine longevity. The aluminum construction also helps dissipate heat more effectively than stock covers, aiding in overall cooling performance.

There is no significant change in engine sound associated with this upgrade; it primarily enhances cooling and adds a subtle, high-performance visual touch to your engine bay.
