â–¶ Vehicle Fitments
The COBB Front Mount Intercooler (FMIC) for the 2016-2018 Ford Focus RS is a high-performance cooling upgrade designed to enhance power output when paired with tuning from the V3 Accessport. Featuring a substantially larger 26" x 8.6" x 5" core, this intercooler increases air volume capacity significantly over the stock unit. It achieves up to 25% improved efficiency with only a minimal pressure drop of approximately 0.3 to 0.5 psi despite its increased size. A key design highlight is the custom fin within the hot side end tank, which evenly disperses incoming air across the entire core, optimizing cooling performance and reducing heat soak during aggressive driving.
This intercooler is engineered specifically for the 2016 to 2018 Ford Focus RS, ensuring a direct fitment without modification. It is ideal for street and track use where enhanced cooling and power gains are desired. Installation is straightforward as a bolt-on upgrade, making it accessible for enthusiasts seeking improved performance without extensive fabrication. The COBB FMIC is a durable and efficient solution to support higher boost levels and maintain consistent intake air temperatures under demanding conditions.
