Description
Upgrade your 2022–2025 Ford Explorer, Explorer ST, or Lincoln Aviator 3.0L EcoBoost with the aFe POWER BladeRunner 2-1/4" Aluminum Hot Charge Pipe in Black. Designed to replace the restrictive factory hot-side charge pipe, this high-performance component maximizes airflow for improved turbo response, increased horsepower, and lower operating temperatures.
Constructed from TIG-welded, mandrel-bent 2-1/4" aluminum, this hot charge pipe features smooth internal transitions to minimize turbulence and pressure loss. The result is a measurable improvement in throttle response and overall engine performance under high-boost conditions.
For long-lasting reliability, the kit includes stainless-steel SmartSeal clamps and heavy-duty 5-ply polyester-reinforced silicone couplings, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection. Integrated 1/8" NPT ports allow for sensors or water/methanol injection systems, providing flexibility for both stock and modified applications.
Finished in a wrinkle black powder coating, the pipe resists heat and corrosion while giving your engine bay a custom, performance-oriented appearance. A laser-etched aFe POWER logo adds a distinctive visual touch.
