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.

IMPROVES PERFORMANCE
The CVF Aluminum Intercooler Hot + Cold Pipe Kit eliminates the crumpled section of the connection from the intercooler to the throttle body to maximize airflow (and help reduce charge air temps.). The expanded hot-side piping also flows more air into the intercooler.
QUALITY CONSTRUCTION
The mandrel bends on the aluminum piping allow for smooth air flow where the OEM version falls short (with plastic, collapsing hard plastic). The pipe kit is available in wrinkle black finish.
STRAIGHTFORWARD INSTALLATION
Designed to install easily with basic hand tools, this pipe requires no extra modifications or parts and should only take you about 30 minutes to swap out.
APPLICATION
This part installs on the following vehicles:
2021-2026 Ford Explorer ST (models WITHOUT OEM BPV)
2021-2026 Ford Explorer Platinum (models WITHOUT OEM BPV)
2021-2026 Lincoln Aviator (models WITHOUT OEM BPV)

The smooth free flowing design reduces turbulence while increasing airflow efficiency. This version is for the HKS SSQV blow-off valve to release excess pressure in the charge pipes when letting off the gas. In addition to intoxicating sound, it reduces compressor surge and improves overall reliability at higher boost levels.
The kit comes will all necessary hardware for the install. No tune is necessary to run this product.
