Anyone else notice that they changed the cold side intercooler pipe to a completely different design? Almost looks like a rigid radiator hose. Ford even references it as a Engine Coolant Outlet Tube on their site. I havent actually been able to grab ahold of one in person, but looks like the new design should help out a lot with failures of that plastic pipe cracking and blowing up being that theres barely any plastic anymore. Wonder if someone with an earlier generation 6.7 can use that new cold side intercooler pipe as a better option to the one they have to reduce failures. If it is more durable, which it should be, this would definitely be a great, cheaper option than buying the aftermarket intercooler pipe upgrades. Looks like list price through Ford is only $78.88. You could probably could get it cheaper. Anyone tried to fit one of these up on the 2011-2016s? I am trying to upload pictures, but for some reason, it keeps giving me upload error messages, so I guess you can google it to see what it looks like.

I seen on FB with pictures, it's a rubber hose with the plastic quick connects still.

On powerstokehub it says it's an SST like the 11-14 but no specs. I am asking because I don't know anything about turbos and I hope it's not like my 2013

I can't wait to rip that **** off there. I hate OEM fuel systems. A friend of mine in South Africa races those huge MANN trucks in the desert rallying series over there. Gained 10% horse power with filtration on a dyno. Fuel quality and cleanliness is way underrated. I'm looking into the system, but the South Africans are rarely sober enough to talk business. All they do is race and drink.
