Description

The Banks Techni-Cooler Intercooler system will enhance the airflow out of your turbo and into the engine of your 1999-2003 Ford 7.3L Powerstroke (Pickups). Featuring mandrel-bent 3 high-flow boost tubes, this intercooler kit also includes high-efficiency all-aluminum end tanks that will replace the wimpy factory plastic units that can rupture under high boost. The high-flow inlet disperses air evenly across the intercooler for an 18% increase in flow and more efficient cooling along with a wide-open outlet and thicker core area with extraordinary volume. Banks created an inventive Twin-Ram manifold intake system that distributes air evenly to both sides of the engine for smooth, even power delivery since the original manifold inlet on early 99 Powerstrokes sends more air to one side of the cylinder bank than to the other.

This Intercooler provides a massive reduction in boost air temperature with a nominal loss of boost pressure. Improving combustion and engine efficiency is accomplished by cooling the air to make it denser and more oxygen-rich. This results in more power and higher continuous power at any RPM, while helping fuel economy and lowering Exhaust Gas Temperatures (EGTs). What could be better than that? This intercooler kit includes mounting hardware.

Features:
  • Maximizes Boost Air
  • Lowers Exhaust Gas Temps
  • Twin-Ram Flows Air Equally
  • Reduces Boost Pressure Loss
  • Dramatically Increases Air Density
  • Packs Cool, Dense Air Into The Cylinders
  • Mandrel-Bent 3” High-Flow Boost Tubes
  • Thicker Core Area With Impressive Volume
  • Aluminum End Tanks Won't Burst Like Stock
  • Improves Power, Durability & Fuel Economy
  • Cooler EGTs, More MPG & Constant-Duty Power
  • Wide-Open Inlet & Outlet Provides 18% Increase In Flow
  • High-Efficiency Custom-Machined Durable Cast End Tanks

Check the build date on the tag inside the drivers door, then match below:
1999 model year built prior to 1/99; with catalytic converter.
Early 1999-1/2 model year built prior to 1/99; no catalytic converter; intake manifold has 2"-diameter inlets.
Late 1999-1/2 model year built on or after 1/99; no catalytic converter; intake manifold has 3"-diameter inlet.
Manufacturer Warranty*:
2 Year Limited

Not impressed so far

I don't even have it installed yet and I would like to send it back if I were not in a time crunch.Build quality appears great. I should have looked over the instructions before purchasing. You have to drill holes and trim quite a few things to get it in. The install instructions are the worst I have EVER seen used. Look how good Garrett or AFE does with instructions and you will know what I mean. I highly doubt this will make a big difference for the money. It is a half inch shorter than the stock! Passages are about 1mm taller than stock. The Mishimoto or AFE cooler is the way to go if you ask me. Much easier to install and larger area than this one, no trimming for the tubes either. Banks sends this kit to work with other kits they have so not all parts supplied are used. They send this cross member that after reading the instructions 4 times is not used on my truck. This is on a 2003 F250 CCSB 7.3L. I wish I would be able to tell exactly how much power this will add (if any) but I am also adding a HPOP, AFE intake Manifold, and GTP38R at the same time. Between the install and the lack of major size difference from stock I doubt I will buy another banks product. I can only hope it really does flow more volume.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much power will this cooler add on my 7.3? Banks Power

Larger and more effective charge-air coolers increase air density by substantially reducing the temperature of the pressurized air from the turbocharger to the intake manifold. By lowering boost air temperature, the denser air is more oxygenated and allows complete fuel combustion. There is also an excellent byproduct of lower intake air temperatures; they produce lower EGTs. If EGTs never build to the temperature where the computer tuner limits fuel delivery, all of the additional power is always available. Lower EGTs also help to reduce the thermal load on the engine and its cooling system, which keeps them running cooler as well.

With that being said, cooling the air makes it denser and more oxygen rich, improving combustion and engine efficiency. The results of this are more power, better fuel economy and lower EGTs. The amount of HP gained is not specified.

On average conditions, how much does the volumetric efficiency improve?
18% - 20% increase in flow and more effective cooling. Larger and more effective charge-air coolers increase air density by substantially reducing the temperature of the pressurized air from the turbocharger to the intake manifold. By lowering boost air temperature, the denser air is more oxygenated and allows complete fuel combustion. There is also an excellent byproduct of lower intake air temperatures; they produce lower EGTs. Lower EGTs help to reduce the thermal load on the engine and its cooling system, which keeps them running cooler as well.

Well-engineered charge-air cooler cores and end tanks with greater airflow also reduce pressure loss, which improves air density further. Within some factory charge-air coolers, the airflow inside is so poor that some cooling passages don’t even get used. In turbo-speak, charge-air cooler effectiveness is measured by its percentage of increase of temperature recovery as compared to ambient air temperature.
