Thumbnail Filmstrip of 1994-1997 7.3L OBS Powerstroke Intercooler Kit Atlas 179-9497 Images
The OBS Ford 7.3 Powerstroke 1994-1997 did not come with a factory mount intercooler system. Instead Ford decided that the turbo would be sufficient with the larger 1.15 turbo turbine housing. Although it probably helped out some it did not cure EGT problems for a modified truck.
Installing the Atlas Diesel OBS Intercooler Kit will get you lower EGT's, better fuel economy and more power. Cooling the intake charge air will improve oxygen availability. So the more oxygen with the cooler air equals more burned fuel and less black smoke.
This kit is a bolt on design. Comes with brackets for the intercooler, power steering cooler and AC Condenser.
Features:
- Bar & Plate Design
- 3" Aluminum Piping
- Adds 20 HP & 40 Ft Lbs. to a stock truck (more if modified)
- All Mounting Hardware
- Direct Fit Bolt On (Some trimming is required)
- 3" Inlet and 3" Outlet
- Overall Size 31"x 18"x 4"
- Core Size 24" x 18" x 4"
Does not fit E-Series. Boots are black in color.

Can the original fuel bowl stay in place with this Intercooler?
Does it clamp up to a KC turbo stage 1?

Overall I�m happy with the product. When you cut your radiator brackets it says �measure 2� from the top and cut across�. It doesn�t say to make them an L bracket until you see the pic on the next page on the PDF file. So I had to buy more brackets. I�m happy with the product and if instructions were better I would give 5 stars.

Kit is good quality and instructions are ok but shipping was horrible intercooler fins were bent along with the support bar for the p.s cooler but other than that great upgrade for the obs fords

To start off with I am very happy with this Intercooler kit and how well it does work keeping the EGT�s down. That being said when I went to install it the top bracket that holds the Intercooler in place and stabilized it had holes drilled on the end. The problem was those didn�t match up and there also wasn�t enough material to just drill new holes. I called FullForce and they were very helpful and professional and worked with me to come to a solution. After that small hick up everything went very well with the install and I couldn�t be happier with the overall performance of this product and also the killer look back behind the grill. I would recommend this product and FullForce diesel should have the bracket issue fixed by the time you�re reading this so go ahead and order it. If you want to see pictures of how it will look follow me on IG @ThatSexy7.3
