Hey everyone! I just wanted to jump in here to answer any questions regarding the intercooler kit. We are the creators of this kit and can answer any questions you have.

So far a few of the questions have been -

Does it fit with the grill in there?
Yes this will fit with the factory grill.

Does it remove the washer fluid reservoir?
Yes. However we are working on a solution for the reservoir. Either way, It will come with something.

What are the power gains?
As of right now we do not have any dyno numbers as the customer has not hit the rollers yet. Once he has, we will report back with results

Can I use the factory airbox?
Yes

Can I purchase one? How much?
Yes you can! We are selling our first run of kits for $899. Click the link below to view/purchase
http://zero2sixtymotorsports.com/product/2010-taurus-sho-front-mount-intercooler/ (http://zero2sixtymotorsports.com/product/2010-taurus-sho-front-mount-intercooler/)

Are you selling the intake also?
Ofcoarse. The intake is $199

*The images above were taking during the build process. Some of the couplers and clamps will be different that what would come in the production kit.

I will continuously add to this as I get more pictures/results/questions.

How much larger is this one over the stock?
Title: Re: Zero2Sixty Motorsports Front Mount Intercooler
Post by: Zero2Sixty on January 17, 2015, 11:40:55 AM
It is quite a bit larger than the factory. The core is 23"x8"x3.5". Will support just under 1000hp.

Well this is . . . interesting.

Gotta keep that washer reservoir though, it's where I store my meth.

I agree. We are actually working on it. I have no problem making a custom reservoir but I am looking at other ways to keep the cost down, which is one reason I haven't really "released" this as a "complete kit" yet.

First and foremost.....

Thanks for developing this (much needed) product! :ok:

It seems that this is one of those "missing links" in the proverbial chain of performance upgrades, that has been severely lacking from any other vendor that I can recall since the EB line was developed.

So big 'ol kudos on fulfilling that void in the market.  :clap2: :thankyou:

Secondly, thanks for joining EBPF.  :alkashi:

Seems most of my questions have been addressed.

A fair amount of us, are running a Methanol Injection set up, whereas the OEM Washer Tank is used as the onboard Meth Reservoir.

In my case, I have an additional (albeit smaller) supplemental reservoir mounted directly above the OEM Washer Tank that now houses my washer fluid itself.

I am aware of the availability of a remote, trunk mounted tank for the Methanol Kits. So the fact that yours (for now) deletes the OEM Washer Tank, is not that big of an issue for me.

But I suppose there may be some who'll want to retain washer fluid capability, so to hear you are developing a work around, is great to hear.

I too look forward to the dyno results, and what not. Especially given the initial install depicted is on a bone stock SHO from what I understand, yes?

I do have a question still left hanging out there......

Does your system supplement the OEM IC, or is it a complete replacement therein?

If it's a complete replacement, that might bode well in the aspect that perhaps the OEM IC could be removed entirely, and a larger radiator can be installed down the road. Just brain storming I suppose.

Eagerly awaiting results.  :popcorn:

Please consider offering black silicone connectors as well if at all possible.

There's some of us out there that like to draw our car's color scheme's into the engine bay.

I suspect you'll enjoy a hearty amount of sales as more info is produced and posted!

Thank you for your input. We really appreciate it. Building stuff like this is what I love to do so anytime I have a chance to build pretty much anything, you can count me in.

There will most definitely be a washer reservoir in the finished it.

I am actually working on a PCV/Catch can setup for these cars.. because they DEFINITELY NEED IT. I am thinking I am going to incorporate a separate meth reservoir that can attach to it. The reason I would like a separate container is.. At my shop I put meth on just about everything. We like to run pure meth on a lot of applications and well.. its nice to wash your windows and not use up your pure meth on the windows.

Here is an example of a custom reservoir I just did for a car in the shop -

Great work amd thank you for joining the forum.

Just a fyi for you.  Your intake will not get much love from this forum. 

Any options for powder coating or thermal coating?.  Is there bung for water meth injection

Well I think what people will find is that an intake is an intake. So don't really care. Mine is the cheapest option out there and it's all that is needed, but I will leave it at that.

I will add meth bungs, powder coated, thermal coat, etc. if that is wanted

But maybe once you have a full system all figured out someone near by might be willing be the donor...

Glad to see you joined the forum after chatting on Facebook.

Most questions have been addressed I see...how about red silicone boots?

I hear you may be making some hard pipes for the rest of the system?

That is correct, we will be working on the remaining hard pipes as well as hard pipes for the factory intercooler and intake pipes.

Red is no problem. Customer wanted blue so that is why we used that this time around

Appreciate the quick response.

Looks like I'll be contacting you shortly. Maybe a package deal with the hardpipes?

Good luck here, I think with some #'s via the dyno this could become a highly sought-after product.

How much drilling opening up holes or massaging of the cars structure is needed to install the kit in it's current form?

Did you remove the factory ic or just cap the inlets and outlet?

0. You have to drill 2 holes in the crash bar to mount the intercooler. I can send a cap for the old intercooler if you do not remove it.

Good info here! I am excited to see data.

I don't want to clutter this thread but what are the products you plan to offer for the EcoBoost platform?
Intercooler
Intake
Hard pipes
Aux or replacement Reservoir

Post by: BiGMaC on January 18, 2015, 03:21:02 PM
Looks like it won't allow the sensors in the lower driver's side to work for adaptive cruise and collision avoidance.... True or false?

I love the unit,... If the above is true, maybe a unit capable of supporting "only" 750-800WHP that leaves these sensors and the protective facia in the lower valance in place for those who have these features?

Our test car does not have adaptive cruise so I cannot confirm it will fit or not. Just from pictures I have seen, I think it's safe to say it would need to be relocated.

The front grill and lower facia can both be used with this intercooler.

this thread always comes up if you search aftermarket intercoolers, once you filter out all the pages for f150/focus/fiesta/mustang.. intercoolers for us are not really a thing it would seem.

Yeah in the transverse 3.5 ford did a criminal act af placing the intercooler between the condenser and radiator...in everything else its up front....i finally did some stock pulls and logs in the new truck and iat never went more than 10 degrees over ambiant

The F150 system sure is nice, my dad has an 11, 3.5 and it does not show more than 15 degree increase in florida heat, even when towing. Plus the F150 guys (atleast the 3.5 Crowd) also have upgraded intercooler options on the aftermarket.
