The aFe 46-20214-B is the hot- and cold-side charge-pipe kit for the 2015–2016 Ford F-150 with the 3.5L twin-turbo EcoBoost V6. It replaces charge piping, not the intercooler core. The manufacturer explicitly excludes the intercooler pictured for illustration.
| Years | Model | Exact engine / requirements |
|---|---|---|
| 2015–2016 | Ford F-150 | 3.5L twin-turbo EcoBoost V6; confirm exact intercooler and charge-pipe connections |
46-20214-B: The current primary heading calls the kit aluminum, while its detailed overview describes stainless-steel and aluminum tubing. The page does not identify each side or alloy, so an all-aluminum or all-stainless claim is not established. Its generic Filter Included field is unsupported by the pipe-kit description; no air filter is promised. An exact installation manual and itemized hardware list were not available for verification; tube diameters, piece counts, sensor transfers, cutting requirements and numerical torque remain unverified.

An application-specific hot- and cold-side charge-pipe kit for the 2015–2016 F-150 3.5L twin-turbo EcoBoost V6.
Is an intercooler included?No. The primary page explicitly says the illustrated intercooler is not included. This is a piping kit, not a front-mount intercooler assembly.
Does the shared F-150 name approve the 2.7L or later 3.5L?No. This exact primary page names the 2015–2016 3.5L twin-turbo engine. Broader applications of a separate intercooler do not extend the pipe kit.
Are all tubes aluminum?The current primary heading calls the kit aluminum, while its detailed overview describes stainless-steel and aluminum tubing. The page does not identify each side or alloy, so an all-aluminum or all-stainless claim is not established.
Which installation parts are confirmed?The primary description includes both hot- and cold-side tubes, premium clamps and silicone couplings. Exact quantities, individual diameters, sensor hardware and a complete packing list are not verified.
Are the listed performance gains guaranteed?No. aFe reports maximum test gains of 10 hp, 16 lb-ft and 15% flow over stock tubes. These are manufacturer test comparisons, not guaranteed or additive gains for every vehicle.
Can another kit manual supply the missing torque and procedure?No. Obtain the current exact instructions and packing list before disassembly. Earlier and later F-150 pipe kits have different couplings, hardware and installation requirements.
Is this kit CARB exempt?The current manufacturer page states this kit is not CARB exempt and is unavailable for purchase in California or use on vehicles registered with the California DMV.
46-20214-B: the guidance above is a verification checklist, not an independently verified disassembly procedure. Resolve the exact-documentation gap before installation.
