[@TutorialTony777]

6:15 factory zip ties look like an engineering after thought..lol ehh. Use a bungee.. no wait.. zip tie.😂😂😂😂

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

It is a funny design first time I’ve seen factory zip ties lol

The Wagner intercooler was developed from the ground up for the 3.0 PHEV in Europe. This model features a detuned ST engine with 360 horsepower, combined with an electric motor for a total system output of 459 horsepower. The installation is different from the standard procedure because the additional battery cooling in the lower area prevents the use of conventional mounts like those found in the CVFab system. Instead, the intercooler is secured directly to the frame using rivets.

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

You this would also be the perfect candidate for doing it on an interceptor to clear the trans cooler

[@TutorialTony777]

I saw a dodge the other day that from a distance looked exactly like an Explorer

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Some of the track hawks and durangos from a distance can certainly resemble an explorer lol

[@TutorialTony777]

It's definitely hot on us down here right now

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Dude it’s been miserable I’m waiting for the little bit of fall weather we get

[@TutorialTony777]

@HoustonSpeedFreaks me too brother

15:02-15:06 is EVERY MAN IN THE WORLDS THOUGHTS 😂 GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO AS ALWAYS.

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Lmao no joke 😂 thank you man 🙏

[@TutorialTony777]

Great tutorial

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Thank you 🙏

[@travishinton4755]

Great content as usual!!!!

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Thank you brother 🙏😁

[@msokes9]

Crazy how tiny these factory intercoolers are. Ford definitely has to go back to the drawing board for the next gen ST. Hopefully they will give us a V8 option down the road

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

It is really tiny but it’s all about how cheap they can build them honestly. And man a v8 option would be wild😅

[@sirwafflefries]

Another banger as usual. Hey I’ve watched multiple of these and haven’t found where you say what size drill bit for drilling out the bottom rivets on 2021+ models? What size?

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Thank you brother 🙏😁 I don’t use a specific size just the size of the rivet I mostly use a 5/8ths drill bit

[@TutorialTony777]

I'd get that wheel out of the way

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Oh yeah removing the wheels helps a lot to get to the two bolts

[@krishansen4769]

Are the Wagner or CVfab intercooler able to be installed on the 2025? I see you guys did the Thermal exhaust and there was no issue.

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Yes sir I have a video installing the cvfab intercooler and explain what needs to be done.

[@JamieStillion]

Is there any difference between the name brands of the intercoolers? Has one been proven to cool better and etc..

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Honestly not really by much at all

[@danielmarjanovic9957]

Will installing one of these intercooler benefit my st? Without a tune..

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Yes absolutely it will 😁

[@homermartinez1]

Hey bud! Does either brand of intercooler perform about the same? have you noticed any real difference in numbers. I'm out in the corpus area and just bought myself a ST and I'm looking to make some upgrades already.

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Honestly their is not a huge difference bewteen the brands as far as performance it’s very minimal

[@TutorialTony777]

1:42 this tutorial will not age well.😂😂😂😂 10 years from now. Ok guys.. update. Don't pull too hard or this old plastic will break.😂😂😂😂😂

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Right as the plastic ages and gets harder it might not like being pulled on 😂
