A big thank you to the team over at Panda Motorworks for making this video--can't believe we just came across this now after having been posted a year ago! In this video you will see compared temp. levels between the stock Ford Focus ST intercooler and the Treadstone Performance TR8 intercooler. In brief: the factory IC reached 155 degrees Fahrenheit from 72 degrees ambient while the TR8 only reached 102. Making the differential of the TR8 to be 30 degrees in total while the stock IC on the Ford Focus yielded approximately 80 degrees. Our TR8 is a Universal application, however, the skilled crew at Panda Motorworks put their own touch to it and created an Ford Focus ST intercooler kit.
