Cobb 16-18 Ford Focus RS Front Mount Intercooler - Black

The large, 3.5-inch thick core of this COBB front mount intercooler is a key upgrade for your 2016-2018 Ford Focus RS. This substantial core is designed to offer a significant improvement in cooling efficiency compared to the factory unit. By more effectively lowering the temperature of the air charge coming from the turbocharger, it helps to increase its density. Denser air contains more oxygen, which allows your engine to burn fuel more efficiently and produce more power, especially under demanding conditions.

Constructed with a well-built, all-aluminum core and durable cast aluminum end tanks, this intercooler is made to handle the increased pressures and temperatures associated with a tuned Focus RS. The black powder-coated finish not only looks sharp behind the grille but also helps to protect the core from corrosion. COBB designed this intercooler to be a direct replacement for the stock unit, meaning it fits right into the factory mounting locations with minimal fuss. This approach simplifies the installation process and ensures that all the factory ducting and components can be reused.

When you're pushing your Focus RS hard, keeping intake air temperatures in check is crucial for consistent performance. This front mount intercooler is a popular choice for owners looking to get the most out of their turbocharged engine, whether for spirited driving or track use. It's a solid option for anyone serious about optimizing their RS's performance and reliability.
