The Fastest Explorer ST 0-60 We've Ever Tested! | ProFlow Intercooler Power Package Review & Install
Vložit
- čas přidán 21. 07. 2024
- The Ford Explorer ST is no slouch from the factory but with our new #ProFlow Intercooler & #SCT Tune, we managed to squeeze everything out of the 3.0L EcoBoost. We tested not only the difference between stock versus intercooler & tune but also intercooler only for those interested in the intercooler alone. Check out the results and installation in this video that shows how much room there is for improvement with the Explorer ST.

Awesome! Nice Explorer ST!
Best install video by far! So good that I’m purchasing the kit for my 2022 ST Explorer ? Well done and thanks 🙏🏻
Absolutely the best way to install the intercooler. Excellent narration!
Wow! That is pretty quick , that explorer would surprise a few fast car on the street.😊
This is the most detailed install video I have found on YT of the intercooler swap for this platform. Well done gentlemen! For those that may not understand 1200+ ft is a huge swing in DA and not in a good direction. Stock vs. just the new IC, gains are pretty good. Its does work!
Much appreciated!
Thanks for the Vid! I am sure the "slope" makes a bit of a diff as well. Love Steeda but, I think i am going Steeda diff brace and Intercooler but ZFG for the tune. 👍👍
It's OK to use the 1 foot rollout time for your claims, that's what magazines use
What size rivets are those? Great video!
I've had my ST for 3 days and I love it. Seeing what these 2 mods do is incredible. I wonder how much of a gain an exhaust will have. Does Steeda offer installation?
Yes! We have installation locations in Valdosta, GA and Pompano Beach, FL
Im adding both along with a AFE CAI and borla cat back
Another badass Ford
Will that fit a explorer 4 banger with the twin turbos
Is this just the tune straight from SCT? Also, is this the same tune that would come with the BDX?
My ST with a zfg 93 octane tune, everything else stock did the 0-60 in 4.1 seconds....
yeah I'm at 4.0 on e50 tune only zfg @ 5k ft altitude
Who is zfg
@@athertonwesjaymedia he tunes ecoboosts
@@grimsinx Where is he located at?
Hey do you have any socials I’m getting tuned soon and have some questions
Do yall do this for a Lincoln Corsair with the 2.3 liter engine?
Can i do this modification of intercooler in same ford company?
Can I get a tune for a 2022 2.3L ford explorer timberline
Those numbers seem high for the stock. What octane? Did I miss that?
Is it possible to get any around 3.5sec and any way to maintain the warranty?
Anything for the edge st?
How much HP with
Intercooler
AFE CAI
Borla cat back exhaust
SCT 93 octane tune
Thoughts?
Are close to 550 ?
What the difference in horsepower with the tune and inter cooler?
Very nice! Anything else on the ECOBOOST line ? I'm looking for a tune/parts doe my 16 SHO.
Thermostat, intake, exhaust, intercooler and tune should put it right where the st is stock
Any durability issues ???
Very sad you don't have any parts for the Edge ST. :(
I though the sct was the weakest tune of all the canned tunes? Should try a livernois
Everyone on here talking crap about the ST braking down ans don't even own one 🤦♂️
Great video! Do modifications like this void the factory warranty?
Not void all together, but they won’t cover any issues that they determined were caused by the mods.
@@ryryshredder148
Probably not as long as you have the factory tune.
Once the ecm has been touched forget about your warranty.
Ask me how I know.
If you do tune and since your gonna blow the warranty,make sure you get a very good one to make it worth it.
Imagine that with cold air intake , down pipe and exhaust for better airflow
Does this work with my Ecoboost 3.0V6 PHEV? And also do you have tune option for use european 98 octane?
Replying to myself. US 93 octane equals european 98 RON (98E10) 👍
How does this match up to the Whipple Intercooler and the Whipple Tune, 93 octane?......
We did a similar video on the Whipple Stage 1 Kit - you can check that out here:
czcams.com/video/DXxhT9j-EVU/video.html
Works for Aviator Black Label as well I assume? What a wife's sleeper car that would be.
Assume nothing I have learned.
I just took delivery of the Steeda intercooler and the SCT tune. It got me to wondering, how much of an increase in hp and torque can be had just with the tune? The website lists 0-60 times for stock, intercooler only, and intercooler / tune. Would be nice to have similar data for just the tune. I would imagine most of the 90+ hp increase comes from the tune? Installing the tune is a LOT easier than the intercooler, so I installed that first. Noticeable difference, especially in Sport mode, and the transmission shifts smoother too. On the stock tune, in Sport mode, there was a hard downshift into 2nd, and that's gone now with the SCT tune. I plan on installing the intercooler in the next week or two, but I think most of the hp and torque gains I've already achieved with the tune. I don't track my ST, but anything to get a cooler intake charge is a good thing. I'm probably going to remove the shutter blades as well, but leave the motors, so I don't throw any CELs. Did this on an F150 Ecoboost I used to have, and it ran fine.
The advertised HP and TQ numbers are from SCT's testing of the tune alone. The intercooler is there to maximize the performance of the tune and give you more reliable power for a longer period of time.
I have a 22 explorer ST, Cvf intercooler, Cvf downpipes, S&b intake,upr catchcan, thermal 3 in catback. Sct with jdm engineering tune. Made 440 whp 530 tq on pump 91.
@@lucian7182
Those are super low #'s.
I wonder if it's the tune that's holding you back 🤔
Could of just been a Heartbreaker dyno too.
@@charleshenson4183 the numbers aren’t that bad, the tq at the wheels is only about 470 though 530 crank. But 440whp and 470 wtq actually isn’t bad that about 120 whp and 150wtq over stock. Parts of the problem is fuel 91 octane is garbage, if I had 93 it would be about 15-20 higher. However if I had ethanol available it would be like 550whp 580 wtq hahaha. The tune is also very conservative so that it’s not as stressful to the transmission. It’s not the fastest st by a long shot by it still has like a 4.2 0-60.
Can it be done on 2023 Explorer hybrid limited or is it limited to ST model?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Would this all apply to the Platinum Exp? Same engine
Thx
Yes, this intercooler will fit all 2020+ Explorers except Special Service Vehicles.
Is PHEV share the engine with ST ?
and wanna know if the ST map and cooler mod available to PHEV
In the US the PHEV Explorer uses a 3.3L V6. There is a European only version that uses the 3.0L V6.
@@steedaautosports 3.3 exolorer is not PHEV but just hybrid. mine has 3.0 liter engine with plug in hybrid system. What I′m trying to ask is, you know. . If St engine and phev engine has same hardwear which is not so sure though, would it be able to mod same softwear?
Do you have 1/4 mile times? 0-60 is not the whole story. I have my ET slip from the drag strip. Got no way to check 0--60 any where close to accurate.
I did 4.2 bone stock with just a tune. You guys need a new tuner 😂
And to think, that was almost my ST. Had I been a couple minutes quicker replying, I would have that on mine. Dadgum…..
Does this work with a 2023 Lincoln Aviator 3.0 TT?
Yes, this will work with the 3.0 in the Aviator
So after the tune is loaded, do you have to run 93 octane all the time? Or only when in sport mode?
All the time or you will get rod knock. You can also run E85 with the 93 tune and get more hp increase as well( -2,3 mpg). Should have shown the difference with that since it is a + with flexfuel engines. You can also perform an 87 tune with slight improvements in acceleration over stock when removing the WOT limiter. I hope this helps!
so SCT X4 has preloaded tunes for STs???? sct site says it's not compatible
Yes they do. If you're on their site you have to select the Explorer ST as the model and not just Explorer
hey!! it's available for 2020 2021 but not available for my 2022 😲😲😲
@@steedaautosports got my 22 and it CAN be tuned just needed an update
Can this also fit on the 2022 Platinum? ( ST not available in my country :-(
What kind of HP gains did you get from the intercooler and tuner with 93 Octane
We weren't able to test HP as our dyno is only 2-wheel drive, hence the 0-60 testing. SCT does rate the tune at +93HP and +50TQ with premium fuel.
0:46 the factory one is on the right? You mean the left?
Yes, left on the screen, but from Chris's perspective it was his right.
Do I need a computer for the tuner or can I just plug into the car out of the box
The tune comes preloaded on the device so you just need to plug it into the vehicle.
I have a tune , do I need to retune after intercooler install ?
No re-tune necessary!
@@steedaautosports thank you
Do they make this for the Ford Edge ST?
how much for this package?
Its at 1300$
Does tuning with the SCT kill your warranty?
Your warranty will depend on the dealership and what area may be affected, but in short, changing the tune will void the warranty. You do keep the factory tune on the device if you decide to ever return to stock. If you want to keep your warranty, you can still get this intercooler, but pick up the Ford Performance tune instead. It may be a milder tune, but it is approved by Ford if installed by a certified technician to retain the full warranty.
@@steedaautosports thank you for the information, its very appreciated!
That is a ton of work just to put an intercooler in
I lost it with the zip ties.
does this effect the warranty?
Safe bet- yes.
Cost?.?
We don't include cost as it could change from when the video was made (i.e. On Sale). You can see the latest information on the product page here --> www.steeda.com/steeda-555-3947-explorer-proflow-intercooler-power-package-x4
@@steedaautosports just state the cost. We get prices change. 🙄
so its just a canned tune directly from the sct.... so with a real tune that guy would shit his pants
WANT, ...NO NEED!
😳......for this amount of work that intercooler better be like $100....sheesh.
With so many little issues this truck has and then not have a warranty I would say it is t worth it for a second 0-60 difference
No lol buy a Durango SRT 😂
@@TeXasDadBod Why spend 20k more for a truck that is only barely quicker stock and can easily be surpassed with 5k in upgrades? Plus way better MPG daily driving.
With how unreliable the vehicle is as a whole and how expensive it is now to repair a vehicle I don't think it would be a good idea to modify and void warranty. If for some reason your stupid rich and you don't care about any of that this is a great option.
I couldn’t find anything major involving the ST itself. Most of the major engine issues I’ve read about was on 2020 and below and not on the Ecoboost that is in the ST, and no transmission issues either from what I’ve read on the ST models
I've had one for awhile you may have bad info
I’ve had 17k trouble free and tuned miles on my ST. tuned at 600 miles.
Steeda works with ford and has been in a data sharing program with ford for several years. These parts are an improvement over stock parts. FYI 👍🏽👍🏽
@@nathanpoirier3219 Same here! 19,000+ miles and has been tuned (Livernois) since month 1. No issues whatsoever, and I drive it like I stole it!
It's not worth the money in my opinion.
Canyon carving??? 🤣🤣
They handle really well surprisingly 😈
Ohhh yeah
The owner of this ST actually just got back from Tail Of The Dragon a couple weeks ago. Said he had a blast! -Chris
