V3 Front Mount Intercooler, 28"x8.25"x5.5"

The Whoosh Motorsports V3 Front Mount Intercooler is engineered to enhance performance and aesthetics for the 2013-2018 Ford Focus ST. This unit is compatible with stock, hybrid, or large turbo setups and supports up to 750 wheel horsepower. Its efficient bar and plate core measures 28 inches long, 8.25 inches high, and 5.5 inches wide, featuring 2.5-inch inlet and outlet ports that accept either stock or aftermarket intercooler hoses and hard pipes. The intercooler is a direct bolt-on application, with all hardware included for a straightforward installation. Installation notes indicate that due to space limitations, the V3 intercooler will not fit with active splitters. Additionally, the factory clips for the OEM intercooler are threaded and will not fit this unit; users are advised to source bolts and nuts from a hardware store and use red loctite. The factory splash guard will also not fit with the new intercooler installed, though the factory shrouding beneath the front grill can remain. It is recommended to allow 1-3 business days for packing and shipping of orders. Customer reviews highlight a significant reduction in charge air temperatures, with one user reporting a drop from 80 degrees above ambient during a pull to 15-20 degrees above ambient after installation. Another user noted a massive difference in car performance and a nicer "spoil noise" (likely referring to turbo spool noise).
