New Intercooler for Transverse 3.5L Ecoboost
« on: January 10, 2018, 02:28:21 PM »
Since you will be able to run more pressure, octane tolerence will be better.
Right, but will it be 2 grand better?

Of course that will be a personal choice but I can see the possibility of buyers remorse.

Once you get past 15-16 psi on the tiny turbos IAT2 is going to rear its head and 93 doesn't tolerate high intake temps.
Just get my intercooler when they are finally released

There is unfortunately no unforeseen release date in the horizon for the intercooler on this platform IIRC!  Z

matt, please lay down some facts about the custom intercooler so we can see what you are referring to.  Right now, we only see a black box to take a poke at :)
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Z, im pretty sure Mattr66 is the famous (or infamous?) Matt of Gearhead performance.

Intercoolers, upgraded turbos, and I've heard from a reputable source  tuning skills second to none.

It is a drop in had some issues of fitment on the first prototype.  Keeps IAT2 within 25 degrees of ambient at WOT under most conditions (excluding extreme heat soak).  The first prototype has a flow issue (still made 460hp to the wheels) that I corrected and am waiting for the manufacturer to correct the casting of the outlet tank.  I'm confident the next version will fit better and have 2 psi less drop that this one that is already waaaaaay better than the stock intercoler.

Probably should divide up the topic before it derails any further from the OP's thread title.

Not doing so, and continuing on with an alleged intercooler discussion will for sure damn it to obscurity/oblivion and not serve either interest properly.

Especially if/when the time comes that the product is actually released.

Just a friendly suggestion.
