New Intercooler for Transverse 3.5L Ecoboost

What do you base this 20% increase on?
Please share your data with the rest of the forum.

You have not been following this development process over the last 2 years I see.  The outlet tank exit went from 290 cfm on their stock replacement tank to a little over 600 cfm on mine.  Iat2 maintains 25 degrees over ambient at 18 psi of boost with tis unit.  The stock intercooler will heat soak and hit 180 degrees on a 90 degree day at that boost level.  At slow speeds the manifold will get hot just because of it being on top of the engine, nothing you can do about that.

Wow that is a huge improvement!  I was sold before but now its a no brainer upgrade for me.

Mine should be here today. Won't be installing until the weekend if it is delivered need to get the crew together to film this install. I've seen a couple of them delivered and they look great.

It's so clear to see how inadequite the stock intercooler is...was....its almost like showing what the difference is between no intercooler(stock) and actually having one(upgrade).  This is a must have!  Awesome!

For those skeptical of this upgrade I just made an installation video with a good buddy of mine. Editing etc now, but for the mean time here are some comparison photos! Absolutely worth it!

Sucker is HEAVY! But with the cast end tanks over plastic and the thickness of the intercooler it really shows how much MORE there is there.

Sigh... want one so dang bad.  Can't get it passed the wife committee though

This will be huge for towing!!! I am waiting for a couple of install videos before I pull the trigger.

 

[Jordan]

Working on final render for the install video. It's not spoon feeding info but it's got everything you'll need to swap out if you are comfortable with a wrench

Any updates on the installation process?

It's not hard to do. Just got to remove the fans, radiator and some hoses and clamps. It's like a 3 to 4 hour job.

Ok... have you installed one already? Some was mentioned removal of the front bumper. Which I’d rather not do. Thanks for the reply

 

[Jordan]

Mine is installed yes. And you have to take off the bumper no other way

Yes I installed mine and yes bumper must be removed and I'd say removing the bumper is the easiest part it's like 6 screws and 4 clips.

When do we get to hear about the reviews of these intercoolers?

 

[ddlopes]

Ok... I’m gonna have to do some research on removing the bumper, radiator and fans I guess...  thanks again for the info... one more thing did the install require any special tools?

Need 2 set of hands for removal & install.. Z
