The intercooler is post turbo, it cools the air charge going directly into the engine. Turbos run super hot and heat the air charge up as they compress it.
Super clean install. I didn't realize there was a poke-through grommet behind the driver fender badge even though I have had my badges off twice. That info will come in handy.
Yes it is available. Yes it will fit a 2023 2.0 Ecoboost. You will need to buy the mounting stud and nut for the top left mounting point. The other 3 mounting points are molded into valve cover.
I think the black on the A-pillar is just due to shadows lol.
Fair warning to prospective 22-24 buyers, the tray cut-out does sit a little off center. I think I can live with it.
I’m going to have to re-think the double sided tape. Apparently nothing sticks to silicone. I will come up with...
I snipped out the thin section behind the screen with scissors. Looks like it fits to me! I might use some 3M 390SL double sided tape to hold it place.
I think Mabett said no to a 22-24 version. I ordered one for my ‘24 anyway. It was just delivered today. I will let everyone know if it is possible to make it work.
It will fit but you will need to relocate the brake booster check valve mounted on top of the air intake. I think you can find the install instructions on the Steeda website.
Nothing.......lol. Just kidding. It is supposed to reduce unibody flex and therefore create better overall handling. It may do that but it also increases the harshness of front end suspension travel, especially over rough roads. I have decided I prefer ride comfort over the handling gains.
