The PLM Heat Exchanger Cooling Kit PLM-MSL55-HX-JP-WW is a complete cooling solution designed specifically for Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG 5.5L supercharged models. Built to reduce intake air temps (IAT) and prevent heat soak, this plug-and-play kit improves cooling performance without requiring cutting or major modifications.
The PLM heat exchanger features a furnace-brazed, non-epoxied core, CNC billet aluminum necks, and 4000 square inches of fin surface for maximum cooling efficiency. Paired with a Johnson CM30 pump and Redline Water Wetter, this kit boosts coolant circulation and thermal performance.
