About This Product

3-inch mandrel-bent high flow boost tubes. Eliminates restrictions for an 18% increase in flow, dramatically increasing the cooling capacity for massive continuous power; big aluminum end tanks won't burst like the plastic stock ones.

Fitment Note
Fits trucks with build date of 1/01/1999 or later.
Specifications

Banks Techni-Cooler Intercooler system includes mandrel-bent  3"  high-flow boost tubes ... large, high-efficiency all-aluminum end tanks instead of the wimpy stock plastic ones that can rupture under high-boost conditions ... a high-flow inlet that distributes air evenly across the intercooler for an  18%  increase in flow and more effective cooling ... a wide-open outlet ... and a thicker core area with impressive volume.

Techni-Cooler provides the maximum reduction in boost air temperature with a minimal loss of boost pressure. Cooling the air makes it denser and more oxygen rich, improving combustion and engine efficiency. Result: higher continuous power and more power at any exhaust gas temp (EGT), better fuel economy and lower EGTs. What could be cooler than that? Mounting hardware included.

Reviews

Gale Banks is the man!

"I have this intercooler on my 03’ excursion and my 02’ F-350. The trucks performance is night and day while towing. The exhaust gas temperatures run about 200 to 300 degrees cooler consistently!"

Erik A. (5/5)

Obs 7. 3

"Very excited to get this in my Ford obs 7. 3. I went with Banks because of the great feedback I've heard with these kits. Best quality intercooler for the obs hands down."

Nathaniel m. (5/5)

1997 ford powerstroke intercooler

"It fit perfect and looks great ."

So far so good

"So far so good"

Adrian B. (5/5)

Intercooler, pipes and hardware are

"Intercooler, pipes and hardware are top notch. The instructions are good but include instructions for parts I didn't buy. So you have to sort through that. Maybe printing a new set of instructions would help as well. Some numbers on the parts list are blurry. Just have to take time and sort through the parts 1st. It would be ideal to have just the instructions I need and separate the hardware into single labeled bags. The install is not complicated it just takes time. This is the first one I have ever done so learning curve is a little steep. Overall it is a great kit with great quality."

James D. (5/5)

It’s a 3 only because

"It’s a 3 only because my shipment was sent a month after original order was sent and each time I contacted banks they said it’d ship the following Wednesday but it never did. A month later and it finally shipped."

Bryan M. (3/5)

Truck run and sounds much

"Truck run and sounds much better"

Adan F. (5/5)

Challenging but worth it.

"Installed on 96 F-250 4wd Time to install was about 40 hrs. however I also upgraded to the 6.7 transmission cooler which requires some bracket fabrication. Good instructions although unless you are a good mechanic this project might challenge your patience. After 1500 miles of use no issues. The engine EGT runs about 200° F cooler under load and stays below 800°F Glad I did it ."

George K. (4/5)

satisfied customer

"Really happy with my purchase. Love driving this truck with it"

Christopher D. (5/5)

Great looking upgrade & the

"Great looking upgrade & the boost tubes fit better than originals. The install of the crossbar to frame needs to be reviewed. The instructions say to drill four 1/8" holes & attach the brackets with #10 screws provided. If the frame was single thickness that might be fine, but mine was double thickness and the 1st screw head broke off. Not a big problem to fix, I used a 11/64th drill to finish the install. I will be pulling my trailer next week to test the new inner cooler."

Q&A

Is there a installation video for the 1999 - 2003 Ford F250 for this Intercooler Kit? The installation instructions on this page seem a bit vague.
JB, unfortunately, we do not have an installation video for this intercooler kit. Thousands of kits have been installed using these instructions. However, you're welcome to call our Tech Support Team with questions at (800) 601-8072.
Do you have a link to just the pipes themselves? What is the flow increase in just the pipes? And what is the cost?
For sales assistance like this, it’s best handled over the phone. Please call our sales team at 626-969-9600 and select option 1.
Can you buy the boost tubes by themselves? Was wondering the flow increase provided by just the boost tubes themselves and not the intercooler. Thanks
Yes you can buy the boost tubes by themselves.
