Whipple Mega Cooler Intercooler (2015-2020 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 2015-2020 F-150 and Raptor and 2018-2020 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 load-without tuning, cutting, or additional modifications.
