Whether or not you've made any mods to the engine or exhaust on your Bronco, maybe even a tune, there are always ways to get more performance! Being turbocharged, both the 2.3L and the 2.7L could benefit greatly from an upgraded Intercooler. Here at Steeda, we know a larger surface area and volume leads to not only cooler air, but better fuel economy, and a healthier engine. Check out the new Steeda Bronco Intercooler in this video, we'll tell you all the benefits as well as a step-by-step install:

Intercooler typically won't require that. It'll just lower the temps and the ECU will cope accordingly to feed the right fuel in to match the air volume. If you have someone that can fine tune your map however, you might be able to extract some minimal gains just from the engine getting to run slightly advanced timing with the lower temps. But typically, I don't see these as a performance part as much as they are a 'longevity of the engine' part (especially here in Arizona).

I was curious. From the Focus RS world they say to get a custom tune to make the most from the intercooler.

Yeah, definitely in the Focus RS world. I'd likely look into the same on my GTI. Different goals for different vehicles, I suppose.

Noice.

Anything else in development now, like stainless steel clutch and brake lines?

I remember checking with Goodridge a couple years ago about ss lines for the bronco, and they said they were going to try to get something to market, I should check back in with them

Looks identical to the Cobb intercooler for the Bronco I just saw on BUB. Steeda is $300 cheaper though, but probably made in the same Chinese factory.

I recently purchased the Steeda intercooler for my 2024 Bronco Wildtrak 2.7L. I recently had it installed by my local Ford dealer in Corinth, Texas, with an installation charge of $350.

The first thing I noticed when the intercooler arrived was that it was packaged quite well to keep any dents, dings etc. from happening while it was being shipped. - very nice indeed. Next, as I checked it out after removing it from the box, I noticed the quality and construction of the intercooler seemed first class. It appeared to be a top quality unit.

Based on the discounted price of the Steeda intercooler along with the minimal installation charge, I felt that this would be a worthy addition for my Wildtrak to deal with the summer heat up here in north Texas. Additionally, as far as performance and mileage goes, I did noticed an increase in performance but any difference in mileage will have to wait until I get more miles on the vehicle.
