In this video I'll run through how to upgrade your intercooler hoses and pipes in the Mazda BT-50 and Ford Ranger. The cold side intercooler pipe is a common fault with these cars, but there are other benefits to upgrading the intercooler pipes as well, like less expansion under boost.

The job can be done in less than an hour, see how to do it and why these Plazmaman pipes are better than the OEM offerings.
