Which model years does the Charge Pipe Kit for S550 Mustang EcoBoost cars fit?

HPS lists part number 17-101 for the 2015, 2016 and 2017 Ford Mustang EcoBoost with the 2.3L turbo engine. HPS does not list 2018 and later EcoBoost cars for this kit, so owners of those Mustangs should confirm fitment for their model year with HPS before ordering.

How much power does the kit add?

HPS reports gains of 17.1 wheel horsepower and 16.9 lb-ft of torque, along with sharper throttle response, without re-tuning the ECU. Results on any given car depend on its condition and other modifications, so treat the HPS figures as a guide rather than a promise for every Mustang EcoBoost.

Will the kit work with an aftermarket intercooler?

Yes, in most cases. HPS states that the Charge Pipe Kit for S550 EcoBoost cars is compatible with the factory intercooler and with aftermarket intercoolers that use the factory intercooler piping. An intercooler that ships with its own piping layout would not need this kit.

How does this kit differ from the blue hose version?

Only the hose color changes. HPS builds both kits with the same mandrel-bent aluminum pipes, the same 2.5 inch hot side and 2.75 inch cold side tubes and the same stainless T-bolt clamps. This listing carries black silicone hoses, and Bulletproof Automotive lists the blue hose kit separately.

Does installation require modification or trigger a check engine light?

No. HPS states that no modification is required during installation and that the kit does not trigger a check engine light. HPS includes a step-by-step installation manual with clear pictures, and the job comes down to swapping the factory pipes and couplers for the HPS parts.

Description

HPS Intercooler Charge Pipe Kit for S550 Ford Mustang EcoBoost 2.3L (Black Hoses)

HPS’s Intercooler Charge Pipe Kit for S550 Ford Mustang EcoBoost 2.3L replaces the factory hot side and cold side intercooler piping and rubber couplers on 2015-2017 cars, and this version pairs the aluminum pipes with black 4-ply silicone hoses. The hot side tube measures 2.5 inches in outside diameter, while the cold side steps up to 2.75 inches. HPS recorded gains of 17.1 wheel horsepower and 16.9 lb-ft without a retune, which makes the kit a sensible first boost-path upgrade for an early S550 EcoBoost.

Design and Performance

HPS singles out the stock rubber couplers, which often crack or fail with age, and on a turbo car a split coupler means lost boost. The kit replaces the whole path with mandrel-bent aluminum that has fewer bends than the factory design, bead rolls each pipe end so the hoses stay seated, and closes every joint with stainless T-bolt clamps. HPS says it works with the factory intercooler and with aftermarket intercoolers that use the factory piping, so it can stay in place through a later intercooler upgrade. It will not add power on the scale of a tune.

Hot side and cold side pipes replaced together in one kit

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
