$2100 for an intercooler and a tune? Jesus Christ that's highway robbery! Whipple should be ashamed.
That is awesome! Great install and video as always!
WHY ARE U HERE
I had no idea Whipple did anything other than superchargers. The title has me wondering what the heck was done to that Explorer ST lol
Yeah same. I know Volvo makes a supercharged+turbocharged+electric engine, but pretty sure an aftermarket turbo+supercharged kit meant to do in your driveway would be impossible.
It’s mostly a tune that made the difference not the intercooler. You plug that adapter under your dashboard and it changes the boss levels and stuff in your ecu. Honda uses something like that called hondata and another one called ktuner. Anyway….. the intercooler does nothing really but cool the air.
@@I_will_show_you_monkeyWhich allows the timing to not retard like crazy killing hp
Same here! I was very confused at first. 😅
@@I_will_show_you_monkeyintercooler adds about 60 hp and with a tune another 100-110 depending on the tune. I got my explorer up to 615 hp with this intercooler and a tune, e85, air intake, Downpipes.
That’s actually awesome, I love to see a sport mode doing its job. So many cars have it and while they do a few little things, the car is pretty much the same as in comfort or whatever standard mode it’s in.
I like that some tuners give Porsches the ability to change the map it’s on depending on the settings.
I’d like to see more upgrades on the new explorers. Great video!!
Same here
THIS IS WHY I THINK STEEDA IS OUTSTANDING, REMEMBERED AS A KID SEEING A 91 FOX BODY STEEDA MODIFIED STREET-LEGAL MUSTANG OWNING CORVETTES AND EVEN A FEW NON-STREET LEGAL CARS ON THE TRACK . I HOPE TO SEE MORE GREAT THINGS FROM THIS REMARKABLE COMPANY THANKS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!!!!
Nothing in this video was steeda except for the guy lol
@RICARDO I was thinking the same thing😂
Thanks for the video. Can't wait for someone to make one with fabbed end caps to lighten it up some.
Love the baby seat in the back!
The Graco car seat in the background is everything.
Toddler in the Graco seat is gunna love it
I love Steeda! I hope you guys have a intercooler for Explorer Sport with the Video!
STEEDA…..SPEED MATTERS! ❤️IT
Just bought a 2023. This thing is gnarly stock
Now let’s see you take the mods further with this platform.
Intercooler and a tune and this thing is a rocket! Now to convince the wife that we need this in our explorer st 😅😂
Ummm the dealership just called and said it’s a mandatory upgrade to our ST to make it more stable and perform better overall
@@JustDontPls 🤔
That just might work 😂
a "rocket" ?? these performance numbers are not close to that category in a vehicle
@@sst6555 I mean 0-60 in just under 5 seconds is pretty fast considering what’s out there now a days that is a “family SUV” I’ve personally seen ST with these mods taking on track hawks…. So yeah definitely a Rocket in my book👍🏾
You guys should do the ( STAGE TWO ) setup to compare to the stage one. It would be awesome to see how simple upgrades without tearing into the engine will improve "Hellcat punishing" power can be produced! And maybe the stage three?!! 😃
I think the Explorer ST is SO UNDERRATED! After doing a lot of research, it shows how easily simple upgrades to the ST can easily beat mustangs, SRT SCATPACK, camaros, ect...AND with a little more upgrade, these ST sleepers can at least "hang with" and even beat the trackhawk and hellcats! Like I said Explorer STs are SO UNDERRATED! and they are only lil tiny v6 😂
Good gains....but the tittle was a bit misleading for me, i was looking for the roots type supercharger to be bolted on making it a compound boosted system.
Car seat in the back beating a ton of hellcats from a dig on the street, nice build.
Sitting here in my 2002 Eddie Bauer 4.6L 2V thinking damn I need some boost 🤣
Man, SUV under 5 seconds. Crazy
Am I the only one that was looking for a screw blower to be added to this thing? lol. I guess whipple has diversified.
No,you're not alone. Quite disappointed myself.
Why would you install a blower on a twin turbo engine 🤔
@@familyguy4724 why would whipple be involved in a twin turbo engine?
@@familyguy4724People have been using turbos to feed blowers for years.
The biggest difference on any of these ecoboost engines is getting the air out not more air in. Intercooler is for consistent runs. The tune made this what it is.
agreed Intercooler keeps temps down all it is is a tune ...$2100 is kind of steep
On a hot day In Indiana in my focus st you could definitely feel the car get slower after warming up. Not with a bigger intercooler. The focus notoriously has a small stock one though, hopefully this ones is better
You could save a lot of money with just maximizing the tune, as you say. ford has to be a bit conservative on tune, as they have a warranty costs to protect for.
@@sategllib2191I’m 99% sure the explorer ST has the exact same intercooler as the stock focus ST which is wild
4.88 Awesome!
Awesome video! Question? Will this void factory warranty? Please let me know if you’ve had any feed back regarding Ford factory warranty with this kit. Thank you.
Hi,
Unfortunately, most of the time upgrades like this will affect the warranty but only if damage is caused and the upgrade is blamed for it -Sam
Impressive. Is there one for 2018 Explorer Platinum 3.5 L Twin Turbo Ecoboost? How does one get it installed in New Jersey?
Very impressive gains. Was this Explorer completely stock before the intercooler and tuning? I'm looking at your website, I have a 2016 Edge Sport and I'm thoroughly disheartened to see the Edge Sport and Edge ST are not on the menu??? What gives?! Would the Fusion Sport options be compatible with my Edge since they basically share a platform? I look forward to your reply! Thanks!
I want to see it all bro. Drags, streets and mostly these options for Steeda Canada 😂. Steeda Canada doesn't provide Ford Explorer ST upgrades on their website.
Zfg is the way to go. 4.3 0-60 and they tune your shift points
That's an early 2020 as evidenced by the elusive tow hook hole in the crash bar
Its a awesome car
Long time since Maybelline😃,,,its true what IT says in that song:the Ford went hot,wont due no more:soooo truuue🤫
will those wheels fit on Ford Maverick? I hope so
So I have a 22 X5 M50i and did a stage 1 93 octane dahler chip tune and went from 4 seconds 0-60 to 3.4 seconds 0-60. It was super easy to install and cost me $2156 including tax.
I have put the Whipple intercooler on My Explorer with 2.3 ecoboost. Now just need to find someone to tune it.. Might be able to come close to what a ST puts out stock for 15K less and then add Steeda performance struts, springs, rear sway bar, the right set of wheels and tires for around and you have a set up that will hall ass and still get 32 mpg on the high way at 70 mph
@Thor Odin son I disagree Lower IAT's on any boosted engine is a good thing. So what it's not an ST. I don't care cause I'm still getting 500 miles to a tank of gas and dont need to buy 93. Plus unless you have a 7 or 8 sec street car nobody give a shit how fast yours is.
Biden youaBitch if your tuning the car you should definitely be running 93 to get any meaningful gains
@@bidenyouabitch7425 bruh you don't need to exaggerate the mileage Lol
@@bidenyouabitch7425 I respectfully disagree that you need an almost in streetable car to be taken seriously. Granted the heavy hitters out there weren't so heavy before. But most of us need the practicality of a vehicle only capable of low teens ET's. Part of the fun is getting lower times and driving to work tomorrow!
I have owned a 2013 and 2016 Sport, and first thing I found was running constant 93 made a big enough difference that my dealers service manager asked me what I'd done to the car and did I have a tune. (Apparently it smoked a new 2018 owned by the mechanic fixing my power unit. (Essentially the transfer case.)) Up until nearly 2019, the Sport was more expensive to tune and find upgrade for. The first 3 or 4 years it was only Livernois and we know their pricing!
But more importantly, almost no one cared. RT's never gave us a look, and forget SRT's! But now, my ST can do those numbers with an intercooler and tune alone. Plenty of room for mods to chip away at those faster cars. There's plenty of challengers available to liven up a trip to the grocery! (I like to surprise people! )
No need to discuss mileage. That's going to suffer because of excessive right pedal pressures!
Doing a lot of research and trying to find answers. I have the Platinum trim and everything I read, they're the same engine, just tuned different. I'd love to do this to my platinum but need help!!
Will this work in the police intercepter utility with the same engine?
The car seat in the back lol
Love that this thing still has the car seats in the back..hahahaha
Will this upgrade work on an Explorer Platinum? Platinum trim gets the bigger ST engine
Use that rtd to do e50 next. Then blow out your diff bolts :)
yeah that machine moves asf😂
Does doing this or getting a tune void a warranty?
When will this be back in stock??
Does this kit work on 2020 Lincoln Aviator?
Any chance that intercooler would fit on an Aviator PHEV?
Is PHEV share the engine with ST ?
and wanna know if the ST map and cooler mod available to PHEV
Would this upgrade void my warranty/bumper-bumper
How many hours from start to finish installation?
Cool
Does it void the warranty?
So what exhaust did you have on that ST? Does not sound like stock exhaust from the first run we were shown.
The owners had us install the Borla ATAK Cat-Back a few months back.
The stock intercooler on the Explorer ST is about the the same size as the factory intercooler I had on my MINI Cooper S with a 1.6L 4 cyl. I can’t believe how undersized it is for such a large SUV!
your comparing apples to oranges; engineers design to dozens of objectives , engine/trans life, mileage, driveability , noise , cost , weight, to name just a few, comparing a very small car to a family SUV probably was not on their list of objectives for buyers of Explorers.
Where do I get this installed? I live in CA?
How much and will it work with my 2024 ST?
How do you get launch mode on the ST?
I like the fact that is lower the temprature,egen instaling this intercooler.,,bit doesnt the turbo get more exposed???🤔
What does that even mean lol. More exposed?
İs it fit the plug in hybrid explorer?
There are tons of great questions, yet no responses. That sux.
How does the flash tuner affect other modes like Eco? Also does this product/install/tune void your factory warranty?
If a ford dealer isn’t installing it you can say goodbye to your warranty.
@@attananightshadow Fair enough. I've never owned a Ford but I'm seriously considering a new ST. Do they install things like this?
@@GolE2839 No, usually not unless you know of a particular dealership (usually in FL, GA, NC, or MI) who might do work like this. But Ford HQ just doesn't do or sanction things like this; and with everyone going electric, this kind of work is probably on the way out.
Per my dealership. When you add a supercharger or even tune your vehicle. Your warranty will be voided unless approved and installed by a factory dealership. I tried to find a Local Tuner in my area to replace my locked ECU with no luck. I was told by local tuners they are moving away from tuning street cars due to the emission tests the state requires. The concern is a failed test can lead back to the tuner for removing or changing the factory emissions requirements.
@@DWH300 What about like a cat-back exhaust and small suspension stuff? I realize the larger intercooler is a bigger operation.
is PHEV applicable the same?
Did you also add the custom tune with 93 Octane?
How much extra horsepower do you think you added
I'm also adding the AFE cold Air intake and borla cat back exhaust
The tune we used is what Whipple includes in this kit, which is good for 91 octane or up. They state the calibration adds +120ft-lbs of torque and +60HP.
awesome for soccer mom suv....
Is Whipple mode possible on a nissan murano?
Is that exhaust stock?
Is that stock exhaust ?
I think you can pull a fuse for the pto/ptu and make it front wheel only to run on the Dyno.
Some of the older model AWD audis are that way
Its rwd biased awd system
@@kennethelliott5985 really the Taurus was front wheel and was basically the same. Although I’m sure the explorer is based on the f150. So I can see that being correct.
Do things like this void warranties?
How much do you lose in gas mileage?
Was going to get my wife one. She found out how fast it was and refused it😅. Got a new tricked out 4Runner instead.
One bolt or two?
I found if you put it in manual mode and short shift 2nd gear at about 2k rpms that kick when it hits 3rd will lower your 0-60.
If you can manually shift it and achieve quicker ETs, then your tune is trash!
This is also how you destroy the trans on these things from what I've seen on RUclips.
@@2nd-place 40 plus passes all under 12 with zero issues so far
Can I put this on the 2.3L
Well, not a completely straight across comparison since you didn't turn off the traction control on the baseline runs.
child seat added extra horsepower
RON 95 calibration possible?
I can't believe the Ford Explorer of all vehicles has become the enthusiasts choice in this segment
Will this void my warranty?
Soooooo, 1/2 second after for $3000 with instal?
By the way I raced a 2016 corvette the other day....he could not leave me with just stock in the Explorer....
Yeah hit the drag strip
He hit it on the head at the end. 5000 lbs-no brake upgrades and the brakes are not really up to performance driving levels. So, when a person in a Focus pulls out of the gas station as you launch this thing from a light it doesn't have the brakes to haul it down faster too. Performance cars should not be just one trick ponies-looking at you Tesla. Fast is great, stopping and handling have to be part of the package to make it safe though.
I like how steeda does not respond to the palm beach dyno or zfg tuning comments 🤔
Hi,
We don't work with those companies, so it is not our place to comment. Additionally, this vehicle here used the Whipple tune that was provided. -Sam
It's a shame you can't just do with the Explorer the same as you can with the other ST cars, and just buy an accessport, modify how you see fit, and get custom tunes to match.
5 Star Tuning makes one. On a stock Explorer St tune only, dyno'd at 415 rwhp and 526 lbft torque. a hell of a lot cheaper too.
@@kennethwilder4253 I wouldn't let anyone from 5 Star put gas in my car, much less tune it.
The factory intercooler was sized the way it was for a reason, the the A/C condenser was unobstructed. Although you'll be making more power, the A/C performance will suffer a bit.
@Thor Odin son Not A/C compressor, the condenser. It will lower the efficiency of the A/C system.
Niiiiccceeee
Does it adversely affect mileage? Obviously, if you put your foot down like that you're not going to get great mileage. I just wonder about when your foot isn't in it.
about 23mpg im getting and not using eco or start stop system
Imagine a cat back exhaust too!
Say no more! -Chris
ruclips.net/video/-46HgtbrtBc/видео.html
this should take like an hour or two tops, right. holy mackerel diy person
What app are they using to record the times?
Draggy! -Chris
Is this compatible with the 2020 Ford Explorer platinum? It has the exact engine at the ST to my knowledge with a slightly different tune.
Hi,
It might work but Whipple has not said if it will or not -Sam
Fantastic performance and economical upgrade for the wheel HP and sub 5 sec 0-60. **Is there a kit available for the F150 ecoboost 3.5L? ** Great video showing the install. A lift is best way to go to assist disassembly/reassembly.
Hey there, Whipple does offer a few kits for the 3.5L, depending on the year. Here's a link where you can check them out -> www.steeda.com/f-150-truck-power-packages
@@steedaautosports There doesn’t seem to be a Whipple stage 1 kit for newer F150s (‘21-‘23).
When a tune is involved, newer vehicles tend to lag behind even if the parts fit. Whipple actually has a separate kit just for the 2021-2022, but for 2023 it's just a waiting game. www.steeda.com/whipple-eb-8113-f-150-ecoboost-stage-1-kit
think of it in terms of how much you will be paying for each of the 3 to 5 tenths of second in performance, on a family SUV, that is not a strong performer on the street equipped with way. It is rather expensive for a modest gain.
this obviously would void your OEM warranty for powertrain issues; did Whipple do any severe duty cycle testing (such as summer temp. max. vehicle a max. load trailer towing on extended hill climbs ( like OEM's do). for engine cooling and A/C performance ? airflow to these heat exchangers behind the new intercooler would be affected. and may be how the powertrain engineers determined what size intercooler they could allow in the factory design. Just something to think about on additions that still does not make a vehicle this heavy a street performance car.
Can you just buy the intercooler and drop in filter and zfg tune by hp tuners
We haven't tested that setup, so we can't comment on how well it would work -Sam
A exhaust upgrade would atleast make it 4.4 secs 😎
This is AWD or 4WD?
Zfg is the ONLY tune to run on a ST....had mine since last fall couldn't be happier in the 3s to 60
My ST is running 4.6 seconds with only a zfg stock e30 tune. ZFG is the way to go!
Could someone possibly explain what zfg tune is? It's not this tune that's in the video right?
@@ivanr.1507 Name of a different tuner.
@@ivanr.1507 bro you can literally type it in the search bar
@@koopspook
Bruhh, lol
If i install a whipple intercooler on my ford explorer 2021 st will i need to tune it or is it ok without a tune?
Possibly, more than likely more consistent power (less or no run to run variance due to heat soak, I noticed they took out some of the sensors (not sure if they reused the boost pressure sensors or replaced them) power increase is gonna come from the tune, it being the same/consistent every time you beat on it is going to come from the intercooler.
Most of these comments on here are kids that dont know about racing lol, i been debating on buying this suv might just do it now, i seen the guy that did upgraded turbos this sub is crazy good stuff
It really is an awesome SUV. Quick, usable, and good looking. -Sam
Good ole Ford Exploder! My stock Stinger still outruns this:)
True..... but you're driving a Kia..... that's not anything to brag about.

Do brake boosts help? My experience has been that they do nothing or even hurt times.
brake boost works better with awd setups. most of the time in fwd and rwd will just spin hard
@@ryanlombarde7808 On our AWD Explorer brake boosting seems to cause a sluggish launch. Without brake boost it will chirp all 4 tires, but with it the engine acts like it is reducing power.
@@kdw75 do you have tsc and advance trac off?
@@ryanlombarde7808 Yes.
Just don't understand why Ford decides to not drop the 5.0 or 5.2 S/C motors in the Explorer. Imagine how cool that would be.
exactly the grand cherokees been getting hemis and the explorers lost their 5.0s
