Whipple Mega Cooler Intercooler (20152020 F-150 / Raptor / Expedition EcoBoost) EB-8120
Industry-Leading, 50-State Legal Intercooler Upgrade for EcoBoost Trucks & SUVs
The Whipple Mega Cooler is the only 50-state legal aftermarket intercooler engineered to dramatically improve charge-air cooling on 2.7L and 3.5L EcoBoost platforms. Designed for 20152020 F-150 and Raptor and 20182020 Expedition and Lincoln Navigator, the Mega Cooler delivers massive thermal capacity gains while retaining a true direct bolt-on installation.
Compared to the factory unit, the Mega Cooler features 54% greater intercooler volume and 8% more surface area. Its offset fin bar-and-plate construction on both the hot and cold sides significantly improves heat rejection while fitting within the stock packaging. Dyno testing shows intake air temperature reductions of up to 90°F, with even greater benefits observed in real-world driving.
Lower intake temperatures allow for increased spark advance and higher oxygen density, resulting in more consistent power, quicker recovery times, and improved safety under sustained loadwithout tuning, cutting, or additional modifications.
