LESS HEAT, MORE POWER
The CVF Performance Intercooler for 2020-2024 Ford Explorer and Explorer ST is a direct fit replacement that is over two times the size of the stock unit. As the charts above indicate, during independent testing we've observed a reduction of over 85 degrees in Charge Air Temperature where it matters: on the street, and not at the dyno (the same vehicle under similar conditions for both the OEM and CVF Performance Intercooler runs).
EXCEPTIONAL CONSTRUCTION FOR MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY
Manufactured from top-grade aluminum, the CVF Performance Intercooler features a TIG-welded bar-and-plate design for maximum durability and fully cast end tanks to ensure maximum flow of air into the unit and out to your turbo - equaling more HP. As with all of our products, the Performance Intercooler is covered under our Lifetime Warranty against manufacturer's defects.
APPLICATION AND INSTALLATION
This intercooler is specifically designed to fit the 2020-2024 Ford Explorer ST equipped with the turbocharged 2.3L and 3.0L EcoBoost engines. There is no modification required to install the intercooler.

Optimized Performance:
Temperature regulation is crucial for power production and delivery. When engine or charge temperatures rise too high, your vehicle automatically limits power output to prevent damage. This applies to both stock and tuned vehicles.
Enhanced Efficiency:
Upgrading the stock intercooler helps maintain lower charge temperatures for extended periods. This means your engine can operate at peak efficiency longer, minimizing power limitations due to high temperatures.
