Shoot me the part number of the downpipe on your 2.3, and we can verify.
It's not as simple as same engine and looks the same. For instance, the 19-21 Ranger has a different downpipe than the 22+ Ranger.
For anyone interested in some real-world data here is ours! Test was done on the same vehicle, same stretch of road, same ambient temps. and in moderate weather. The effect would be compounded in summer weather/longer drive stretches.
Data-backed 31 degree improvement in charge air temps...
We just approved this with one of our prototype testers, so here's some charts:
+31 degree improvement in cooling temps! And this is in moderate ambient temps. In hotter weather (summer/longer runs) the effect will compound.
You can - and we can waive the restocking fee - but based on the 3-bolt connection on the Ranger and the 2-bolt on the Bronco I'd be very surprised if she fit.
The easy way to check is by cross-referencing downpipe model numbers from Ford. If they match, they will fit. A site like TascaParts works for this. It doesn't seem it will cross over.
No need to like and comment, she's coming! We just need to find the time to develop (we're in high season). Stay tuned, she's coming as soon as we have time.
Easiest way to see the difference is compare the stock Bronco DP to the stock Ranger DP - if the part nos. from Ford don't match then it won't be cross-compatible (generally due to pipe routing).
Don't count us out of this conversation! We're collecting real-world data as we speak to back up our claims, and we put out some killers on some other EcoBoost platforms as well.

Appreciate the feedback! We're actually working on apples-to-apples street tests on the 2.3 and 2.7 and will post results here and on the product page at CVFab.com soon as well.
We're talking same stretch of road, same ambient temps., only difference is intercooler on/off.
Stay tuned!
