Hey Guys!
Nick here from Mishimoto back again to kick off another development thread for you! That's right, we're finally digging into the intercooler piping for the 2.7L engine option, and we've already made some progress on the project. We still have a ways to go though since we're still in the preliminary design phase, but we'd love for you to follow along with our progress!
As always, make sure that you head over to our Engineering Blog for the full write-up!

While this twin-turbo V6 is no slouch, we enthusiasts still have the inherent need to add even more horses to the pack. Cranking up the boost through tunes and turbos is the simplest solution, but other components must be addressed to handle this added power first.
Ford’s priority for function becomes truly apparent once you lift the hood on your 2.7L powered Bronco. The intricate maze of tubes and pipes on full display gives us flashbacks to that classic Windows screensaver. Each pipe and component snakes perfectly around each other, creating organized chaos, but all working together in harmony together. This layout, however, does take its toll on the 2.7L’s intercooler piping system, which is not conducive to furthering the engine’s performance.
