Revo Intercooler – Ford Fiesta ST MK8 1.5 Ecoboost
The Revo Intercooler utilises unique design features to lower intake air temperatures, minimise pressure drop and allow the engine to produce impressive power and torque with Revo Software. The unique end tank profile promotes internal laminar flow by decreasing turbulence and increasing airspeed into the bar and plate core. This enhances charge air cooling giving you access to more power throughout the rev range.
The limitations of the stock intercooler were apparent throughout testing. The stock part consistently struggled to manage charge air temperatures, especially. On vehicles with performance software. The Revo Intercooler has been designed to improve on every restrictive element of the stock cooler, enhancing cooling efficiency by lowering intake air temperatures by up to 34ºC vs. the Fiesta ST intercooler, allowing you to drive harder, for longer.

Increased Core Volume – The Revo Intercooler was built around a simple principle; create a cooler that can keep up with your demand for power. Designed from the ground up, the Revo Intercooler has a 58% larger core volume than the OEM part and offers perfect fitment. By removing the “air separation dam” it allows access to a volume of unused engine bay space to be filled with the intercooler core.
Intercooler Height – The decision to manufacturer the cooler at ¾ height and not fill all the available space was key in balancing the performance benefits against functionality. Offering the most efficiency per-cubic-cm cooling capacity and minimising pressure drop, whilst managing unnecessary weight. Also allowing sufficient airflow to the vehicle’s radiator and air ducting.
End Tanks Design – The Revo end tank geometry maintains the largest possible cross-sectional flow area to and from the core. With a cast interior surface finish, the Revo end tanks allow air to flow freely without obstructions. The design has been balanced between core width and optimal tank profile design. End tanks play an important part in maintaining pressure and work in harmony with the core to promote airflow, the Revo end tanks are designed to offer the optimal balance between both of these key features.
Bar & Plate – Designed with a bar and plate core to maximise the efficiency of heat transfer, the pressure drop is also controlled as the air meets less resistance compared to that of a tube and fin alternative. The Revo Intercooler also features carefully specified fin geometry to maximise cooling properties while minimising flow restriction. The ambient core side utilises louvred fins to slow ambient airflow which improves heat transfer, while the charge core side features an offset internal fin design to balance surface area and air resistance to minimise pressure drop.
Intercooler Pipe Upgrade – Supplied with an upgraded silicone charge and throttle pipes. The increased diameter pipework ensures the maximum performance by increasing system volume by over 17%. The internal diameter of each silicone is precisely matched to the outer diameter of the ribbed inlet and outlet connections along with a unique Flush Fit design, allowing a smooth transition between components. This has done away with the stock “quick-connect” hose couplings and removes the restrictions present in the charge systems.
