The aFe BladeRunner Hot and Cold Charge Pipe Kit is a high-flow replacement for restrictive factory charge pipes, crafted from durable mandrel-bent aluminum and finished in wrinkle-black powder coat with laser-etched branding. By smoothing and increasing the airflow path between the turbocharger and engine, this kit reduces pressure loss and heat soak, helping your truck’s turbo system breathe more efficiently for stronger throttle response and potential horsepower and torque improvements. Includes premium hardware and robust silicone couplings for leak-free connections.

Fitment Notes

• Designed for 2022–2025 Ford Bronco Raptor V6-3.0L (twin-turbo) applications.

• Also fits 2024–2025 Ford Ranger Raptor V6-3.0L (twin-turbo) models.

• Direct replacement for factory hot and cold charge pipes.

• Uses factory-style quick-connect adaptors with O-ring seals for OEM-like sealing.

• Not CARB certified — not legal for street use in California and some other states (check local emissions requirements).

Included

• Aluminum hot charge pipe (2-1/4″ mandrel-bent section).

• Aluminum cold charge pipe (3″ mandrel-bent section).

• Premium stainless-steel SmartSeal clamps.

• Heavy-duty 5-ply, polyester reinforced silicone couplings.

• Factory-style O-ring quick-connect adaptors for secure fitment.

• CNC machined aluminum blow-off valve adapter and built-in 1/8″ NPT ports for sensors or water/methanol injection.

Product Specs

• Construction: TIG-welded mandrel-bent aluminum for strength and smooth airflow.

• Finish: Wrinkle-black powder coat with etched aFe POWER logo (heat and corrosion resistant).

• Hot Side Diameter: 2.25″ for efficient turbo supply flow.

• Cold Side Diameter: 3″ to reduce restriction and support boost retention.

• Couplings: High-temp silicone with SmartSeal clamps for reliability.

• Ports: 1/8″ NPT for sensors or accessory integration.

• Emissions Compliance: Not CARB legal — verify local requirements.

Product Features

• Improved Airflow Path: Smooth internal transitions reduce turbulence and pressure loss, improving turbo efficiency and throttle response.

• Durable Aluminum Construction: Rigid mandrel-bent aluminum resists heat soak and flex better than stock plastic pipes.

• OEM-Quality Sealing: Factory-style quick-connect adaptors and O-ring seals help prevent leaks under boost.

• Performance-Forward Design: Includes blow-off valve adapter and NPT ports for additional tuning or cooling accessories.

• Heat-Resistant Finish: Wrinkle black powder coat helps resist corrosion and under-hood heat.

• Plug-and-Play Replacement: Bolt-in design fits without cutting or major modification.

Why This Matters

Upgrading restrictive OEM charge pipes to a free-flowing aluminum kit like this reduces turbo backpressure and heat accumulation, allowing boost to build more quickly and efficiently — especially valuable on performance builds or tuned engines where airflow restrictions can bottleneck potential gains.
