Ordered an intercooler!

Almost ready for the dyno tune from National Speed here in Richmond. I’m open to hearing about other local tuning companies too.

I plan on also doing the down pipes before the tune.

I also have a JLT catch can on the way.

Visual comparison with the factory intercooler:

National Speed in Richmond is not the place to go for EcoBoosts. I know many EB owners, some slightly modded, some serious bolt ons, and none of them were even close to potential with a National Speed tune. They did ZERO to the Trans which is important.

I recommend Adam@ZFGRacing if you are getting serious about mods, which it sounds like you are.

This box must have cost $50 to make! Great packaging.

I think I’ll notice a difference with everything else stock. It came with 1 screw. Doesn’t get much more “plug and play” than that.

Are you positive it will fit without any body modifications?
Very curious to here your before and after results.

It’s supposed to be a direct plug and play. I’m going to measure up everything just in case.

Nice! You aren't wasting any time. Eager to hear your thoughts. I'm going to be doing a fair amount of towing in hot temps so I definitely want to do one as well. If you have any thoughts on why you chose the Garrett I'd be interested.

Looks very nice. They indicate on their website that removal of grill shutters is necessary.

I would love to get some before and after logging on the IAT's, and MCT's!

Wasn’t part of the grill shutters to not cool the CAC so much? So you didn’t need to drill a weep hole in the CAC to let the condensation out? Will a bigger CAC add to this problem?

This larger inter cooler actually has a drain plug

Yes. My friend and I wanted to get some baseline # s before the install. 5.8 was the quickest 0-60 we had. It really dropped off after that. Might be what “heat soaked” is about.
