FenFabrication High Flow Air Intake V2 - Black (2020-2026 Ford Explorer ST)
Dual-Filter Intake Upgrade for Increased Airflow and Turbo Response
The FenFabrication High Flow Air Intake V2 is an evolution of FenFab's original intake design for the 2020-2026 Ford Explorer ST, now upgraded with a dual-filter configuration for even greater airflow. By replacing the restrictive factory intake path, this V2 system improves turbo spool, throttle response, and overall engine performance while maintaining an OEM-like fit.
At the core of the system is 2.75-inch mandrel-bent aluminum tubing, designed to maximize airflow to the turbocharger. The piping is paired with 4-ply silicone couplers to ensure secure, leak-free connections. Moving from a single filter to two pre-oiled cone air filters allows the system to flow more air than stock - supporting measurable gains in horsepower and torque.
Finished in a clean black powder coat, this intake not only performs but also enhances the under-hood appearance. Drivers can expect more pronounced turbo and blow-off valve sound, along with improved intake efficiency that helps maintain ambient intake air temperatures while cruising.
