This AFE Power intercooler (part 46-20222-B) is a direct-fit upgrade designed to slash intake air temperatures with part 46-20222-B. Factory intercoolers heat-soak quickly during sustained pulls or towing. Dropping charge air temperature is the most effective way to prevent knock retard and maintain consistent power in a forced induction air intake system.

Built with a bar-and-plate core that outperforms factory tube-and-fin designs, this intercooler offers increased internal volume and fin pack density. Cast aluminum end tanks are TIG-welded for high-boost strength with CNC-machined ports sized for maximum flow. Core dimensions are optimized for frontal surface area while maintaining a direct fit. Pressure drop is minimized to preserve turbo response.

Bolts to factory mounting locations using included hardware. Silicone couplers and T-bolt clamps connect to existing charge piping. No cutting or fabrication required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the core dimensions and thickness of the AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B?

The AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B features a bar-and-plate core measuring 18 to 30 inches wide, 6 to 12 inches tall, and 3 to 4 inches thick. This intercooler cast aluminum end tanks are TIG-welded for leak-free operation at high boost pressures. The core density typically ranges from 11 to 16 fins per inch for a balance of airflow and cooling.

How much does the AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B reduce intake air temperature under boost?

The AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B reduces intake air temperatures by 50 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit at 15 to 20 PSI of boost pressure. This intercooler bar-and-plate construction dissipates heat more efficiently than tube-and-fin designs. At highway speeds, you can expect a pressure drop of only 1 to 2 PSI while maintaining excellent thermal efficiency.

Does the AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B come with inlet and outlet connections for installation?

The AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B includes 2.5 to 3 inch inlet and outlet connections but may not include full charge air piping depending on the kit. This intercooler requires custom piping to connect to your turbo compressor outlet and throttle body. Mounting brackets and hardware are typically included for direct fitment in specified vehicle applications.

What specific performance benefits does the AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B offer for my vehicle?

The AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B enhances your vehicle's air and fuel delivery system for improved power and efficiency. This performance part is engineered to OEM specifications or better using high-quality materials. Expect noticeable gains in throttle response and overall driving experience after installation.

Is the AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B a direct bolt-on replacement for my factory component?

The AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B is designed for direct fitment on your specific vehicle application without major modifications. This component uses factory mounting points and connections for a straightforward installation process. Basic hand tools and approximately 30 to 60 minutes are typically all that is needed.

Does the AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B require any ECU tuning after I install it on my engine?

The AFE Power Intercoolers 46-20222-B typically does not require ECU tuning for basic bolt-on installations on stock or mildly modified engines. The engine's computer can compensate for small changes in airflow or fuel delivery within its learning parameters. A professional tune is recommended if you combine this with other significant engine modifications.
