Another great video from y'all. Yeah it's 30 minutes, but full of so much info and no useless long filler into/outros. I also appreciate your honesty when it comes to fitment/finish issues and setting the right expectation. There's nothing more frustrating than running into issues and watching some of these install videos that go through everything so quickly and flawlessly. P.S. you never want your pipes touching bro! (unless you're into that sort of thing...no judgement here :P)
I bought the CVfab race. Fitment with stock charge pipes were definitely a pain a in the ass. I eventually got them on but had to use a ton of grease. I eventually switched to the CVfab charge pipes and much easier to install
I used the factory pipes for my cvfab race intercooler. Yeah. It was tough getting on for sure. I haven't got a retune since I installed my intercooler. I am planning a cvfab downpipe this July and will do a fresh tune then. Hoping for good results 🙏
I have a 2018 eco 10 speed automatic with a roush CAI and custom exhaust as well as a sr performance throttle body spacer and C&L bypass valve, no tune. Do i need a tune for the cvf race intercooler and how much whp/ torque do you think i will make with my current mods?
Im debating between the full race and the cvfab but i feel like im missing something my end goal is just the nx2 but why would i get the full race over the cvfab race
Did you guys do the stock charge pipes on the street version? I'm pretty sure CVF offers optional charge pipes but I figure they barely make a difference. I love the video. I kind of have a hard time sitting on it for 30 mins, but I also don't know how I'd cut it down.
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance that's actually the best you can do! I don't intend to get the race (bit pricier) so it'll be dope to know all the preformance stuff. I don't want to get down there more than once Xd
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance you should put time stamps so people can jump to exactly whatever they are looking for or it would just make it easier to compare the parts
okay my setup: 2020 non-hpp ecoboost mustang of course lol Stage 1 OTS from COBB v3 running 91oct fuel Roush CAI cvf high flow cat, flowmaster y-pipe, flowmaster outlaw axle-back cvf race intercooler Stock injectors/turbo/fuel-pump - What would a guesstimate be on my current wHP? I'll be going to Ryan at PDTuning shortly for a custom Tune as well. - Love your content hope there are more dyno pulls with all my stuff listed installed lol.
Whats the best and/or must have option for a daily driver? (no track use, just beef it up a bit) Oil seperater, flash tune, intercooler, intake, downpipe w/ cat? Also, is the blow off value you showed for daily driver necessary? I dont want to overdo it after hear about EcoBooms lol
Thank you for your feedback. I'll purchase the Street CVF intercooler. Didn't realize how small the stock was. True, any motor can blow up, even if it's well maintained. Just has a ring to it lol
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance I've yet to have a single issue with coolant temps on my Race IC in SW Florida, no idea what was causing your temps to climb like that.
I'm leaning towards the Mishimoto IC since I have a pretty good deal on it, would you say that it would be similar to the CVFab street? It's hard to get parts from the US here in Europe for the moment so I will go the Mishi route for now... Awesome job as always guys 👌🏼
Keep in mind those are the numbers with a stock, off the shelf cobb stage 1 tune. Without that tune, it's 279HP/334TQ for CV Fab vs 271HP/324TQ for Full Race. If you're going to get a custom tune (which you should), it's hard to say what you'll get, but that's something you'll probably want to check with your tuner about.
Nice man I have a Wagner Evo 2 race Intercooler on my Ecoboost mustang it makes a big difference. I have a question should I put charge pipes cold and hot side and a turbo smart blow off valve would that make a difference in power thanks guys great video.
The charge pipes are a purely cosmetic upgrade as the stock pipes have made well over 400 WHP. I personally always change my stock charge pipes as they look cheap. We've proven a real VTA BOV will hold more boost under wide-open throttle. Feel free to reach out to us to purchase them! Sales@ffperformance.co
Ive seen comments saying they didnt encounter the problems they are so there is a missing factor that we arent seeing but id assume as long as you have the cobb and its tuned ur fine
What's the stock boost level, sounds like the stock turbo is very small it spools fast but can't maintain high boost at higher rpms . heat soak happens if it's on the dyno is typical because your missing relative air forced across the front of the car.
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance you have blown my mind. I have the ford performance tune and a MBRP race exhaust with the mishi intercooler. Im curious how much hp the intercooler adds. Right now without taking the intercooler into effect, the car pushes 362hp crank. Im thinking the intercooler adds another 10? but it doesnt add to torque right? any information would be helpful thanks
@@jakeruss0614 Fitment is perfect. He had it all installed by a shop but they did the complete FBO install and tune in 2 days and said everything went smoothly.
Thanks for going out of your way to really test these aftermarket parts you're underrated. Keep it up head held up high. 👍🤴
Thank you!

Great video, you guys deserve more views!
Hey I appreciate that, we'll be coing out with more soon.

I'm glad we're not the only ones, how is it performing for you?
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance I love it! I’ve yet to see any gains on AIT’s when getting on it

Have you felt a difference on the street?
Go Fast Bits VTA DV+ Performance Blow Off Valve I got this installed on my 2017 ecoboost and I love it
Great to hear

The quality of FR is unmatched, American Made and professionally hand-tig welded. Either way, both units perform!
What OTS tune is it? Stage 1 or 2 Cobb?
21Hp with intercooler plus exhaust another 15-20hp that's 35-41HP+
With no tune also!
Did you guys do the stock charge pipes on the street version? I'm pretty sure CVF offers optional charge pipes but I figure they barely make a difference.
I love the video. I kind of have a hard time sitting on it for 30 mins, but I also don't know how I'd cut it down.
We did, they fit perfectly.
We discussed the length, this is as much as we could cut it down. We’ll chop up the time marks here shortly.

@@vik7082 We're working on that today.
okay my setup:
2020 non-hpp ecoboost mustang of course lol
Stage 1 OTS from COBB v3 running 91oct fuel
Roush CAI
cvf high flow cat, flowmaster y-pipe, flowmaster outlaw axle-back
cvf race intercooler
Stock injectors/turbo/fuel-pump
- What would a guesstimate be on my current wHP?
I'll be going to Ryan at PDTuning shortly for a custom Tune as well.
- Love your content hope there are more dyno pulls with all my stuff listed installed lol.
About 310 whp 365 wtq
Great video helped me decide on a front mount
Thank you!
So you used the stock charge pipes on the CVF street intercooler but upgraded to the charge pipes for the other intercoolers?
The Chargepipes make zero difference in power
Whats the best and/or must have option for a daily driver? (no track use, just beef it up a bit)
Oil seperater, flash tune, intercooler, intake, downpipe w/ cat? Also, is the blow off value you showed for daily driver necessary? I dont want to overdo it after hear about EcoBooms lol
100% the Cv fab street FMIC. We do not use the term ecoboom. Any car can blow up. Yes the BOV is fine to use on all applications.
Thank you for your feedback. I'll purchase the Street CVF intercooler. Didn't realize how small the stock was.
True, any motor can blow up, even if it's well maintained. Just has a ring to it lol
@@williesco760 we’ll get it shipped fast!
what kind of tune would I need to run the cvf race intercooler without the coolant problems?
E and meth combat heat.
If you’re using this Intercooler for drag racing then it wouldn’t matter, I wouldn’t use it for road racing.
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance I've yet to have a single issue with coolant temps on my Race IC in SW Florida, no idea what was causing your temps to climb like that.

They are 99% the exact same.

So if I get the race intercooler do I need a tune or not?
@@abrahamdiaz3005 you don’t
What should I pick for a 2024 mustang ecoboost??Full race @ 271 369 or cv fab race @281 355??
Keep in mind those are the numbers with a stock, off the shelf cobb stage 1 tune. Without that tune, it's 279HP/334TQ for CV Fab vs 271HP/324TQ for Full Race.

@williampalmer8052 thanks my friend :)
So if I put the CVF Street intercooler on, I can run it without a tune?
Yes
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance Awesome. I appreciate your patience! XD
@@blythardsmith8015 Yee thank you
Do you guys have any information on what charge pipes will fit the cv fab race intercooler and a turbosmart dual port?
The best option would be to go with CV Fab chargepipes with the OEM flange
Hey I’m having the same problem with the coolant temp issue and I’m stock but a roush cold air intake please help
Daily driving or track racing?

Is it worth going race over street to avoid heatsoak in Phoenix summer?
Ive seen comments saying they didnt encounter the problems they are so there is a missing factor that we arent seeing but id assume as long as you have the cobb and its tuned ur fine
ANY intercooler will help with the Phx summers.
Ha, I've got a 2018 pp2 in the same color, love it!
Nice!
What's the stock boost level, sounds like the stock turbo is very small it spools fast but can't maintain high boost at higher rpms .
heat soak happens if it's on the dyno is typical because your missing relative air forced across the front of the car.
That can be said about any and all stock boosted vehicles
OEM Intercooler are not efficient for high performance use
180 dont most cars settle around 200 to 212
wait maybe i misunderstood, the intercooler ADDS hp? I have a mishimoto one, how much do you think that adds??
Yep!, it does add power. The Mishi is the same as the CV Street so the dyno is very comparable.
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance you have blown my mind. I have the ford performance tune and a MBRP race exhaust with the mishi intercooler. Im curious how much hp the intercooler adds. Right now without taking the intercooler into effect, the car pushes 362hp crank. Im thinking the intercooler adds another 10? but it doesnt add to torque right? any information would be helpful thanks
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance you're telling me my intercooler added 15-20whp to the car?? Im just trying to get my numbers right
I hear that the CP-E Intercooler is the best for the ecoboost mustang is that true ??
The designs are nearly the same as CV so I wouldn't say it's the best.
Great video!
Hey thank you!
Isn't the ETS the best intercooler?
The ETS was nearly the same as the FR.
How much different do you guys think the ETS intercooler is than these three in the video?
I wana know this too.. cant decide between full race and ets
@@jakeruss0614 Go with the ETS big intercooler w/charge pipes. My buddies 15’ Ecoboost with FBO 93 made 351rwhp/422rwtq with the ETS
Hows the fitment with the charge pipes?
@@jakeruss0614 Fitment is perfect. He had it all installed by a shop but they did the complete FBO install and tune in 2 days and said everything went smoothly.
Thats amazing! Which setup do you have? I wish they had more videos on the ETS
Are these carb legal?
The only CARB legal FMIC is going to be Garrett and COBB.
@@FunctionFactoryPerformance would you suggest the cobb stage 2 kit?
What fuel are you running? 93 octane?
91, we're in Arizona.
Wish he would tell you the numbers after each pull pretty worthless vid
Damn, so worthless we’ve sold multiple intakes and intercoolers after posting this. Great comment, we’ll constructed, highly recommend.
