F150 overland build

I just read through the whole thread. woof. I really like the Mercenary bumpers. Functional but low key. Checked their site and they aren't posted there. I agree I'd love to see a version with a vent for the EB intercooler, and perhaps a hitch or other QR winch mount.

The problem with the eco boost is the intercooler. You could mount the same bumper but no winch and it would fit.

Well, right. Plus you need a bigger opening to duct air to the intercooler. Thats why the removable winch mounting point would be needed.

Does anyone make a intercooler relocation kit? That would help as well.

Damn that's a nice kit. And not super expensive. I don't nerd it since I have a 5.0 but that is a great option for the eco boost guys.

It's the "go-to" kit for the guys with larger turbos and big HP

Yeah, I've looked at that kit. I like it, and it would be massive overkill for a lightly modded truck - which is fine by me for cooling systems. It's probably cheapest to do the relocation and just buy the kit that puts a winch inside the factory bumper. Hmmm....Christmas list is starting to come together...

Love this truck. I flow you on another forum. How do you like the decked drawer ? Worth the coin?

Actuailly, even of you were 100% stock it would help with heat soak while you were crawling in 4 low.

When I put on an after market intercooler I saw a big drop in IATs even while cruising around town.
