Didn’t want to hijack the other thread so did another one.

Easy install but not a 10 minute job for me...lol. This thing is HEAVY and super well made, would probably outlast anything. It’s almost twice the size of the stock one, from what I’ve seen it’s probably the same as the other guy’s replacements as well. Had to remove the shroud because of the thickness. Perfect fitment everything lined up perfectly. Definitely helped to use power tools (cordless Milwaukee ratchet) trying to bench press the cooler, fans and the mounting bracket with my forearm while bolting everything in place. At one point even used my knee and forearm lol.

Overall fun install great mod for anyone who doesn’t want to go full on bumper off mode. Super high quality COBB product looks like the tanks were JetHot coated, the lower part of the intercooler does have a row showing because of the shroud removal tho. No biggie for me.

what are you looking to gain from this upgrade?
  • ~70% larger volume than stock intercooler core and cooling surface area 10% larger than stock
doesn't seem like that much an increase?
