What is the main benefit of upgrading to this front mount intercooler?

Upgrading to this front mount intercooler significantly reduces your intake air temperatures. Cooler air is denser, which allows your engine to produce more power and operate more efficiently, especially after modifications like a turbo upgrade.

Does this intercooler come with all the necessary hardware for installation?

The intercooler is designed as a direct fit and includes the core and end tanks. While it bolts to factory mounting points, it's recommended to check the included hardware list to ensure all necessary components for your specific installation are present, as some plumbing may need to be adapted or replaced.

What kind of modifications are recommended to pair with this intercooler?

This intercooler is ideal for Focus ST models that have had their turbocharger upgraded or are planning to. It's designed to handle the increased heat from a more powerful turbo and works well with COBB's own charge pipes for a complete system.

Product Details

COBB is well-known for making performance parts that help you get the most out of your turbocharged vehicle, and their V2 Front Mount Intercooler for the 2013-2018 Ford Focus ST is a prime example. If you've upgraded your Focus ST's turbocharger or are planning to, this intercooler is a critical component to manage the increased heat. It works by taking the hotter, compressed air from your turbo and cooling it down before it enters the engine. Cooler air means a denser air charge, which allows your engine to make more power more efficiently.

This intercooler features a larger core than the stock unit, measuring 24 inches by 7.5 inches by 3.5 inches. This increased surface area and volume allow it to dissipate heat much more effectively, reducing the intake air temperature significantly. The end tanks are constructed from cast aluminum for durability and smooth airflow, and the core itself is a bar-and-plate design, which is known for its robust construction and excellent cooling capabilities. COBB designed this intercooler to be a direct fit, meaning it bolts up to the factory mounting points with minimal modification, making installation more straightforward. It's designed to handle the demands of a modified Focus ST, helping to prevent heat soak and maintain consistent power delivery, especially during spirited driving or track use.

When installing this intercooler, you'll want to ensure you have the necessary tools for removing the factory intercooler and plumbing. The kit is designed to work with COBB's own charge pipes, but it can also be adapted to other aftermarket piping setups. Having a cooler intake charge is essential for any Focus ST owner looking to push their car's performance further, and this intercooler from COBB is a solid option to help you achieve that goal.
