Cobb 17-23 Ford F-150 Raptor / 3.5L / 2.7L Front Mount Intercooler - Black

The core of this intercooler is constructed with a dense, bar-and-plate design, measuring 24 inches wide by 12 inches tall and 4 inches deep. This substantial surface area and internal fin density are key to its improved cooling capabilities. When your F-150 Raptor's 3.5L EcoBoost engine is working hard, especially under heavy throttle or in warmer conditions, the turbocharger heats up the intake air. This hot air is less dense, meaning it carries less oxygen, which can limit power output. The front-mount intercooler's job is to take that hot, compressed air from the turbos and cool it down significantly before it enters the engine.

COBB's design focuses on maximizing airflow through the intercooler core while minimizing pressure drop. This means the engine receives cooler, denser air more efficiently, which helps the 3.5L or 2.7L EcoBoost engine produce more consistent power. The black finish not only looks sharp behind the grille but also helps dissipate heat. This intercooler is designed to be a direct replacement for the factory unit, simplifying the installation process. By keeping intake air temperatures down, you can expect more reliable performance, especially during demanding driving conditions or when running custom tuning that requires optimal airflow.

This kit includes the intercooler core, mounting brackets, and necessary hardware for installation. While it's designed as a direct fit, referring to the manufacturer's installation instructions is always recommended to ensure proper fitment and optimal performance. Keeping intake air temperatures in check is crucial for maintaining the health and performance of your turbocharged engine, and this front-mount intercooler is a solid upgrade for your F-150.
