2015+ Ford F-150 / 2017+ Raptor 2.7L/3.5L EcoBoost AMS Performance AMS.55.09.0001-4 Stock Location Intercooler (Black Powder Coat)

AMS Performance 2015+ Ford F-150 / 2017+ Raptor 2.7L & 3.5L EcoBoost Stock Location Intercooler – Black Powder Coat

Part Number: AMS.55.09.0001-4

The AMS Performance Stock Location Intercooler for the 2015+ Ford F-150 and 2017+ Raptor EcoBoost platform is engineered to eliminate heat soak, improve turbocharger efficiency, and deliver consistent power under demanding driving conditions. Designed specifically for the 2.7L and 3.5L EcoBoost engines, this high-performance intercooler features the largest OEM-location core currently available for the platform, delivering dramatically cooler charge air temperatures while maintaining factory-style fitment.

Built using a massive 21 x 10.25 x 5.5-inch dense bar-and-plate core, the AMS intercooler offers over 115% greater core volume compared to the factory unit. The result is significantly lower intake air temperatures, improved airflow efficiency, and reduced pressure drop across the intercooler system. During testing, the AMS intercooler achieved up to an 80-degree reduction in charge air temperatures while producing gains of 12.3 wheel horsepower on the same calibration and nearly 2 PSI less boost pressure.

Unlike basic aftermarket intercoolers that focus only on size, AMS engineered this system using real-world data collection and advanced airflow analysis. Flow-optimized cast aluminum end tanks, chamfered inlets, and a smooth internal airflow path maximize cooling efficiency while reducing turbocharger workload. The integrated drain port also provides easier servicing and long-term reliability for hard-working street, towing, and off-road applications.

This direct bolt-on upgrade retains factory mounting points and factory piping compatibility, making it an excellent choice for performance enthusiasts looking for reliable power gains, improved throttle consistency, and enhanced durability under sustained boost conditions.
