Aftermarket Intercooler for 2025 and newer 2.3 Ranger

[White willy]

Who’s running one,and or,is there even one available for the 2025 and newer 2.3?
Has anyone seen or heard of a charge pipes etc,or down pipes yet?

Doubtful, the new 2.3L is too new with a new turbo setup. Its still difficult to find upgrade parts for the 2.7L Rangers and they've out for a bit longer.

Well,we shall see if in fact the one CVF has does fit….
They say it does,and one is on the way.

Hmm. I know the intercooler will fit, but the pipes have to be totally different because the new 2.3L went to a twin scroll turbo which has a slightly different intake setup. Actually I just looked, the only part that CVF lists for the 2025 2.3 is the intercooler, they do not make pipes for the twin scroll Ranger yet. Bronco pipes may work, but so many Bronco parts turn out to be not interchangeable. Guess you can test fitment for them.

My understanding as well,so I’m going to do the intercooler,as long as it fits.And according to them it does…
Az summers are brutal,so it should help….

Can confirm,the CVfab air to air cooler does indeed fit with no issues what so ever.
Install took less than an hour laying on the ground,no lift needed.
Everything on my STX can be done from below,including removing the lower air shutter.
Sorry I’m not a big picture write up guy,but once I removed my front skid plate (I have aftermarket skids installed),access is very accommodating.
I chose to remove the motor from the ASG so I could plug it back into the harness and tie it up under,out of the way so as to avoid any codes etc.
Now I wait for Livernois to write my tunes.
Apparently my truck is a newer strategy they have not written any files for to date.

The difference in size,and im sure efficiency between factory and CVfab should be a nice improvement.
