SPD Performance introduces the highly anticipated 2024–2025 Ford F‑150 2.7L EcoBoost Alpha Catted Downpipes (part number FDP27F24SS). Engineered around the industry‑first Alpha Cats, this system delivers ultra‑high flow while meeting green emission standards. Factory downpipes on these newer EcoBoost models restrict flow by reducing the catalytic converter diameter from 5.5″ to 5″—a loss of 5 in² of surface area—causing higher back pressure and exhaust gas temperatures. This upgrade replaces it with full 3″ mandrel‑bent 304 stainless tubing, CNC‑laser‑cut turbo flanges, TIG & MIG welding for uncompromised strength, and a 4″ flex section to absorb engine and chassis movement. No custom tuning is required: this unit is designed as a direct factory bolt‑on replacement that enhances throttle response, fuel economy, and overall performance while reducing turbo lag and EGTs. The USA‑made catalytic converters are built for serious application use and comply with federal EPA regulations. For legality in all jurisdictions, customers should verify local certified application validity.

Installation is surprisingly straightforward. This is a direct bolt‑on replacement using factory turbo studs and flanges. Some users have noted that removal of factory studs may require care due to heat exposure over time—but overall the process remains very manageable for anyone with basic hand tools. Many install shops report completing the swap in under two hours.
Fits the following: Ford F‑150 models from 2024 to 2025 equipped with the 2.7L EcoBoost V6 engine.
