The Ford Explorer ST is one of the most popular vehicles to modify on the market today. However, one issue always comes to the surface when adding more power to these vehicles, and that is power robbing heatsoak caused from running higher boost levels. As is the case with all turbocharged vehicles, the cooler, and more dense you can make the air, the more power can be made! By increasing the turbo system’s cooling efficiency, without dramatically impacting pressure drop across the intercooler, we are able to give you the additional power want, when you want it. Our Intercooler Upgrade Kit will dramatically reduce your heat climb and soak issues, while being capable of supporting power levels up to 1,000HP!
*FITMENT ON 2025+ REQUIRES AFTERMARKET HOT AND COLD SIDE INTERCOOLER PIPING FOR PROPER FITMENT.
Features:
High Flow design for reduced pressure drop compared to competitors
Increased surface area for improved thermal exhange, reducing intake temperature
OEM-Style black coating to provide stealth improvement
Direct bolt on design to allow for easy installation
Compatible with all Livernois Motorsports Performance Upgrades
Direct bolt-on replacement - no modification required or aftermarket pipe kits required
85 degree reduction in Charge Air Temperature observed in real-world conditions (charts below)
214% greater volume and 260% greater frontal area compared to the OEM intercooler (cooling area is 26.5" x 15.75" x 2")
High-flow cast end tanks (featuring the CVF logo) ensure considerably better airflow efficiency than welded aluminum
TIG-welded bar-and-plate construction
CVF Lifetime Warranty
LESS HEAT, MORE POWER
The CVF Performance Intercooler for 2025 Ford 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.
