Whipple Stage 1 Kit (20172020 F-150 / Raptor 3.5L EcoBoost) EB-8110
50-State Legal Stage 1 Performance System for 3.5L EcoBoost Trucks
The Whipple Stage 1 Kit is a complete, emissions-compliant performance upgrade for the 20172020 Ford F-150 and Raptor 3.5L EcoBoost. Engineered to deliver massive real-world gains while maintaining OEM-level safety, this system combines Whipples advanced cooling, airflow, and calibration technologies into one bolt-on package.
At the core is the Whipple Mega Cooler, an oversized intercooler that dramatically reduces charge temperatures for consistent power. Paired with a roto-molded high-velocity cold air intake and Whipples industry-leading custom calibration, the Stage 1 kit produces up to 100 RWHP and 130 lb-ft of torque over stock. Even more impressive, gains exceed 150 lb-ft at 3,500 RPM, delivering exceptional power under the curve and throttle response.
The Mega Cooler features 54% greater volume and 8% more surface area than the factory intercooler. Its bar-and-plate construction with offset fins on both the hot and cold sides improves heat rejection while fitting within the stock location. Testing shows intake temperature drops of ~60°F on the dyno and 100°F+ during steady-state torture testing.
Whipples CAD-driven, CFD-modeled intake system reduces inlet restriction and increases air speed. The velocity-stack gauze filter with extra-wide pleats flows up to 132% more air than a stock paper filter. Completing the system is Whipples calibration, developed through extensive dyno and real-world testing to maximize output while retaining factory-type safety limits. The included Whipple flash tool enables easy file uploads, DTC read/clear, live data, and data logging.
