Easy horsepower for your EcoBoost truck

aFe is a huge fan of the 2011 to 2014 F150 EcoBoost pickups and have gone hog-wild creating a lineup of EcoBoost performance parts that can give your truck an awesome power boost with relatively simple parts. The Bladerunner charge pipe is another natural development from that line of thinking and is capable of adding up to 10 horsepower and 12 lb-ft of torque as a direct bolt-on replacement for your factory intercooler piping. aFe's EcoBoost Bladerunner charge pipe does not require tuning to get your truck easy, bolt-on gains without the hassle.

Highly-efficient intercooler tubing

aFe's Bladerunner uses large 3 to 3-1/2" tubing that's made from mandrel-bent aluminum with a black powder-coat finish. Unlike your factory intercooler tubing, the Bladerunner system features smooth bends that improve flow and allow your intercooler to work far more efficiently. aFe includes all necessary installation hardware and instructions with every Bladerunner charge pipe kit.

Check out our install guide for this charge pipe on our 2011 F150 EcoBoost Project Truck!

Free Custom Retune Program: While aFe's Bladerunner Intercooler Charge Pipe doesn't require custom tuning, its performance is greatly enhanced with one of our 5-Star Custom Tunes which will also qualify you for our Lifetime Tunes Program where you can receive free retunes for the life of your truck on products that you purchase from Stage 3 Motorsports! Check out our Lifetime Tunes Program page or call 623-434-5277 for more information.

My ecobeast build

I started my build @ 2 months ago. First Gibson cat back 2.5 exhaust and AFE CAI. When ordering my Livewire for my F-150 the salesmen recommended the Bladerunner charge pipe. I was skeptical at first. Well I bolted it on today and all I can say is what a dramatic difference. I still have not uploaded my custom tunes yet, waiting to empty this tank of gas. Of all the bolt on products to date this Charge pipe is by far the best thing I have done. You can really feel the difference in power and the whole truck feels much smoother going thru the gears. Thanks Stage 3, you've got a customer for life. Now time to save $$$$ for a new intercooler!

Well made piece, 10 minutes to install while truck was on the dyno. Truck only cooled down for time that part was installed. Made 13rwp and 11ftlbs over prior run. Truck only has Revolution Automotive tune and CAC. Happy with product and Stage Three shipping/customer service.

2013 Ford F-150 crew cab ecoboost with 3.55 gears

My truck has AFE stage 2 CAI, AFE 4inch cat-back, SCT tuner with 93 octane, and kooks Y-pipe with high flow cats And I finally installed the AFE charge pipe and I must say I am VERY disappointed in the ingenuity and quality assurance, I had to clean the metal shaving and grease and dirt out of the pipe right out of the box, the product is fairly easy to install you don't even need to jack the truck up and my truck has a 2/3 drop, after installation I boost/leak tested the pipe and it had a small leak around the MAF sensor and sensor bolts after that was fixed the biggest difference I felt is it took the turbo/boost lag completely out, I would recommend this product as the last mod if you must have optimum performance!

I ordered and installed the aFe charge pipe, stage 2 cold air intake, and cover. The fit was ok and the total install took about 2.5hrs. I agree w/ the other reviews...the charge pipe does not seem line up very easily. I was so excited to take her for a spin after I finally got everything installed! My impression of thes bolt on mods- eh...the sound of the intake is nice and there may be a little more response when you hit the pedal, but don't expect anything drastic. Not bad for the money but at the end of the day these parts are really just part of a performance package. I'm hoping that when combined with exhaust & and tune it will result in noticeable gains and hopefully better gas mileage also. These are my future plans, so I'll keep you posted.

Great enhancement to my 2012 Ecoboost F-150

A great enhancement to my truck - worth the money - much better air flow from the intercooler.

Easy to follow instructions. I used the written instructions along with a youtube video to make installation flawless. This charge pipe along with the cold air intake completely removes the turbo hesitation. Next step is a programmer!

I didn't have a lift so it took a little longer to install but not bad. First test drive produced a loud whistle, which means a leak of course. I found the lower end mating to the intercooler was leaking I attempted to tighten but started to get fearful of over tightening and damaging the plastic flange. I still can't seem to get it airtight due to the lip on the flange. Anyone else have this? Anyhow it still increased my milage by 3 mpg with this and stage 2 intake and no tuning. Hopefully I can resolve the leak issue it's frustrating.

A word of caution for those with aftermarket CAC. I'm running the Wagner intercooler and with the slight change of exit of the driver's side piping, the Bladerunner was nearly impossible to install as is. The clearance provided no less than an inch and a half of pipe clearance which meant trying to push past the coupling piece was an exercise in futility. I also tried pushing the coupler all the way on the Bladerunner and then aligning it and pushing the coupler back down....still no joy. The only way I could install it was by removing the CAC completely and feeding the piece in before bolting the CAC back in. Was a huge pain in the ass, and because the clearance doesn't take advantage of the full length of the coupler, it is very hard to get a good seal on the provided clamps. I did end up having the same whistle that someone else reported and went back in and tightened down until it stopped moving. Overall, the quality of this product is excellent and I would certainly recommend this after seeing how many bends are in the OEM piece. Specifically, there is almost a 90 bend in one section that would certainly impede performance. But be prepared for a long install (and possibly needing an extra set of hands) if you are not running the OEM CAC. Will provide an update on if this results in any increased MPG or observable power. So far, nothing that I can tell.

Fit and finish is very good and alot more solid than stock pipe. Noticed more torque down low and truck seems to pull harder. Definitly smoother acceleration through the gears.

For the price of this product I really wondered if it would be worth the money. When I took off the stock pipe I could see how it would be much better than the stock one because the bends in the pipe are much smoother and would help air flow much better than the stock one. (I always wondered why the manufactures would install such a worthless item) I do feel a difference in power and am happy with my purchase.

Ever since I bought this piece I can actually hear my turbos. Definitively a difference in horsepower. I wad able to install it in less than 20 minutes very easy. Id highly recommended getting the BBK throttle body 73mm. To go with it makes a huge difference.

Very easy install, did the 73mm BBK throttle body at the same time. Took all of 30 minutes for both. Fitment was good except for lower silicone on the charge pipe, it is probably one size too large where the coupler fits onto the tank. Other than that, very happy ! Thanks Stage 3
