Product Description

The 2.3L EcoBoost engine is a marvel of modern engineering, but Ford dropped the ball on one thing: the intercooler. The factory unit is tiny and inefficient. After just one or two hard pulls, it gets overwhelmed by heat ("heat soak"), causing your Intake Air Temps (IATs) to skyrocket. When that happens, the ECU pulls timing, and your Mustang feels sluggish. The COBB Tuning Intercooler Upgrade breaks that vicious cycle.

COBB didn't just weld a bigger box together. COBB used Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to model exactly how air moves through the intercooler. COBB found that most cores only use a fraction of their cooling surface because air takes the path of least resistance. To fix this, COBB cast Air Diverting Fins directly into the end tanks. These fins spread the charged air evenly across the entire face of the core, maximizing cooling efficiency. The result? You get cooler, denser air entering the engine, which equals more consistent horsepower.

Cold air is dense air, and dense air makes power. With the COBB FMIC installed, your EcoBoost will "come alive." The throttle response is sharper thanks to the 3-inch mandrel-bent cold side piping, and the power doesn't fade after the first stoplight launch. While you will see improvements on a stock tune, this hardware is specifically designed to support the Accessport Stage 2 Off-The-Shelf maps. It’s the easiest way to add significant torque to your S550.

This is the single most effective hardware upgrade for the EcoBoost Mustang. It installs easily without hacking up your car, looks incredible behind the grille with the cast COBB logos, and keeps your engine safe from the power-robbing effects of heat. Don't let a hot day ruin your drive—cool it down with COBB.
