Airtec Motorsport stage 2 intercooler upgrade for the Ford Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost, developed to significantly improve cooling performance compared to the original intercooler. This is particularly important for vehicles with software tuning, where higher turbo pressure causes rising intake temperatures.
To overcome the limitations of the OEM intercooler within the available space behind the bumper, Airtec opted for a high-flow twin-pass core designThis core is wider, taller, and deeper than standard, resulting in a significantly larger frontal area and a substantial increase in capacity.
Thanks to the larger core and the cast Airtec end tanks The air is guided more efficiently and charge temperatures remain significantly lower under load. Despite the larger size, the intercooler fits neatly behind the original bumper, and only minor modification to the lower grille section is required.
The kit is delivered complete including silicone hoses, aluminium boost pipe fittings, stainless steel hose clamps and a clear assembly manual. Assembly takes an average of 2 to 3 hours.
Available in Pro-Series Satin Black, with or without Airtec logo.
