aFe Power BladeRunner Aluminum Hot and Cold Charge Pipe Kit Black (46-20784-B) - 2024-2026 Ford F-150 2.7L EcoBoost
Improve airflow through the turbocharged intake system of your 2024-2026 Ford F-150 2.7L EcoBoost with the aFe Power BladeRunner Aluminum Hot and Cold Charge Pipe Kit. Designed as a direct replacement for the restrictive factory charge pipes, the 46-20784-B combines mandrel-bent aluminum construction, smooth transitions, premium silicone couplings, and stainless-steel SmartSeal clamps to create a stronger, freer-flowing path between the turbo system and engine.
aFe Power engineered both the hot and cold sides of the system for increased airflow, with the hot-side BladeRunner pipes outflowing the factory charge pipes by up to 20% and the cold-side pipe providing up to an 11% airflow increase. The complete system is finished in a wrinkle black powder coating for heat and corrosion resistance while delivering a clean, performance-focused appearance under the hood.
Up to 20% More Hot-Side Airflow
The factory charge piping can become a restriction as airflow moves through the EcoBoost turbo system. aFe Power's BladeRunner hot-side charge pipes are designed to reduce that restriction, delivering up to 20% greater airflow than the factory hot-side charge pipes.
The hot side uses TIG-welded aluminum piping ranging from 2" to 2-1/2" in diameter. Smooth transitions and mandrel-bent construction help decrease turbulence and minimize pressure loss as compressed air travels through the system.
Up to 11% More Cold-Side Airflow
The cold-side BladeRunner charge pipe also improves upon the factory design, outflowing the stock cold-side charge pipe by up to 11%. The TIG-welded aluminum cold-side piping transitions from 3-1/2" to 2-3/4" to provide a smooth airflow path between components.
Combined with the upgraded hot side, the complete BladeRunner system provides a freer-flowing transition between the turbo system and engine to support lower operating temperatures and increased power.
Mandrel-Bent Aluminum Construction
aFe Power manufactures the BladeRunner charge pipes from aluminum for a durable, heat-resistant replacement for the factory piping. The pipes are mandrel bent to maintain smooth internal transitions and TIG welded for strength and durability.
These smooth transitions are designed to decrease turbulence and minimize pressure loss through the charge system. By improving the path of compressed air between the turbo and engine, the BladeRunner kit is engineered to support increased horsepower and torque.
Premium SmartSeal Clamps and 5-Ply Silicone Couplings
aFe Power equips the BladeRunner kit with high-quality stainless-steel SmartSeal clamps and heavy-duty 5-ply silicone couplings. The silicone couplings are polyester reinforced for superior strength and durability in the demanding environment of a turbocharged application.
Mounting hardware is included, providing the necessary components for installation of the upgraded hot and cold charge pipes.
Factory-Style Quick Connect with O-Ring
The BladeRunner system incorporates a factory-style quick-connect fitting with an O-ring, helping the upgraded aluminum piping integrate with the F-150's existing turbo system while maintaining a vehicle-specific connection.
1/8" NPT Accessory Ports
For performance builds requiring additional monitoring or fluid injection equipment, aFe Power provides 1/8" NPT ports for connecting compatible sensors or a water/methanol injection system. These integrated ports provide additional flexibility without requiring the aluminum charge pipes to be modified to add an accessory connection.
Wrinkle Black Powder-Coated Finish
The aluminum charge pipes are finished in a wrinkle black powder coating that provides heat and corrosion resistance while giving the F-150 engine bay a clean, understated performance appearance.
A unique laser-etched aFe Power logo adds a custom finishing touch while retaining the stealthier appearance of the black charge pipe system.
