Best Intercooler for 2018 gen2,
Also had hyper car development install there unit on the truck a few weeks ago an it kicks ass. Really woke the truck up. Also has anyone replaced spark plugs yet? Think I need to. Any colder running plugs out there an what about gap?

Best is relative to what you're looking to do. Are you looking for a stock location replacement? If so, the Wagner Tuning unit is what I'd recommend.

Are you looking for a relocated intercooler that puts the cooler up behind the factory front grille? If so, then go with the ADD Intercooler Relocation Kit by AFE, the Full-Race unit, or the SVC Intercooler. All are great setups!

We carry all of them here at Apollo Optics and would be happy to help go over options to figure out which setup is best for you. Let us know if we can help!

Currently the SVC but the Cobb one coming out soon looks to be the new top dog in my book.

Any of you guys change plugs? I seem to have some lag or miss under load at certain times?

Any idea whe Cobb will have the Raptor I/C and tune on their site?

Everything I've read suggests the stock IC is quite efficient. Unless there's independent dyno numbers to back it up, I'd have to venture any feeling of the truck "waking up" after an IC swap is likely placebo.

After SEMA, they have said on instagram the end of November.

The intercooler upgrade is not really for added power, but more for maintaining the truck's power with more efficient cooling. With the aftermarket intercooler, your IAT2 will stay much closer to ambient air temp than the OEM intercooler which wards off heatsoak and allows you to maintain boost/power.
