Product Overview
Cool those hot aircharge temps and gain consistent performance with an upgraded intercooler.
The Full-Race V2 Intercooler is the strongest and highest flowing intercooler ever developed for the Gen2 Raptor and F-150 EcoBoost. Featuring aerodynamic cast end tanks with internal flow dividers supporting a 1000cfm flow rate (70% more internal flow area than stock), and <1psi pressure drop at 700+hp airflow levels. The stock EcoBoost intercooler location is less than ideal for cooling, but it also doesn’t help if you’re planning to install a winch, steel bumper, or run a snowplow, while the Full-Race Intercooler allows for installation of all the above. Each and every unit is leak tested to 50psi (even small pinhole leaks can cause loss of power.)
F-150 is a tough truck that will be subjected to work site and off-road abuse, high strength and durability are critical. Whether upgrading for increased performance or adding a winch / prerunner bumper – Intercooler upgrades are the recommended first modification for turbocharged EcoBoost engines. Also known as the CAC (charge air cooler), the stock F-150 CAC is located below the radiator in the lower front grille area. The OEM EcoBoost intercooler uses a thin aluminum core crimped to plastic end tanks, allowing ‘heatsoak’ (intake air temperatures rise uncontrollably) and a corresponding reduction in power. The stock intercooler can not fit a winch or aftermarket bumper and it can’t handle increased airflow from larger turbos or a tuned F-150 with stock turbos. In comparison, we use an aerospace quality intercooler core and our end tanks are expertly TIG welded in precise fixtures. The lower support beam is hand-fabricated from high strength steel then powder coated black. Using 3″ inlet / 3″ outlet, the coldside charge pipe is available with water/meth bungs as requested.

In high humidity or rainy environments, the stock intercooler position can lead to condensation water building-up inside the stock cooler. Upon sudden acceleration and boost, this water can be introduced into the engine, causing a misfire event. We recommend using a mechanical vent-to-atmosphere BOV (blow-off valve) on the lower charge pipe, after the intercooler. These can help evacuate moisture from the charge air stream before it enters the engine’s throttle body. The 2015+ eBOV may leak boost above 22psi, so we strongly recommend using a mechanical BOV for any high boost setups.
