Cobb 16-18 Ford Focus RS Front Mount Intercooler - Black
The Cobb Front Mount Intercooler in black fits 2016-2018 Ford Focus RS models, replacing the stock unit with a larger bar-and-plate core that drops charge air temperatures for reliable power delivery. This direct-fit upgrade handles high boost levels from stock tunes to big turbo setups, preventing heat soak during extended pulls. Drivers see consistent performance gains with IAT reductions up to 40°F over OEM.
