Gone are the days when you had to choose between hauling the family to the mall or having fun on the way. The 2020+ Ford Explorer ST is the ultimate vehicle for anybody who loves to go fast but needs space for 7 people, dogs, or a week’s camping trip worth of gear. But what if 400 HP and 415 lb.-ft of torque isn’t enough for you and your 7 dogs? That’s where Mishimoto’s performance front mount intercooler for the 2020+ Explorer ST comes in.
Our robust bar-and-plate intercooler boasts a massive 130% increase in core volume over the stock unit, with a 168% increase in fin surface area. Those increases result in better flow, better cooling, and, most importantly, more power. In dyno testing, our intercooler proved its worth by adding 34 HP 7 lb.-ft of torque at the wheels on the stock tune. But, where the Mishimoto intercooler really shines is when the turbos are pushed to their limits with a tune. With a stage one tune, our intercooler added a huge 65 HP and 12 lb.-ft of torque over the stock intercooler on the same tune. Even with the turbos spitting out superheated air at over 300°F, our intercooler kept outlet air within 10°F of ambient, versus over 200°F outlet temps with the stock intercooler. All of this is achieved while being 19% less restrictive than stock.
Performance is useless if you can only use it once. That’s why our intercoolers also focus on reliability. This 2020+ Explorer ST intercooler utilizes a durable bar-and-plate core that’s precision TIG-welded to the cast and CNC-machined aluminum end tanks. To ensure this intercooler stays firmly in place, we also include two adjustable lower support struts. To add an extra layer of corrosion resistance and tie it all together, we’ve finished our intercooler in a durable sleek silver powder coat. Like all Mishimoto Explorer ST products, this performance front mount intercooler is backed by our Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
