2.3L / 2.7L Cold Air Intake with Dry FilterFOR THE 2021–2026 Ford Bronco

2021-2026 Ford Bronco 2.3L / 2.7L Cold Air Intake with Dry Filter

This COBB intake is offered for the 2021-2026 Ford Bronco with the 2.3L / 2.7L EcoBoost engine. It is not a Bronco Raptor application. The supplied dry filter is the configuration sold here, identified by manufacturer part 7R1100.

The COBB system uses an injection-molded airbox lid and a dedicated filter while keeping a factory-like appearance under the hood. Two window panels are supplied. The clear polycarbonate panel closes the window opening and lets you see the filter. The aluminum mesh panel leaves that opening ventilated for a more open configuration. You can select the panel that suits your use without buying a second lid.

COBB reports roughly 9% more airflow with the clear panel and roughly 21% more with the mesh panel in its testing. These are airflow comparisons, not promised horsepower gains. The window choice also changes how exposed the opening is to the surrounding environment. The system does not connect to the stock Everglades snorkel. The 3.0L Bronco Raptor is outside this listing, even though the kit serves both regular Bronco EcoBoost engines.

Why choose this intake?

• Clear and aluminum mesh window panels included
• Injection-molded lid with a factory-like appearance
• COBB filter supplied with the intake assembly
• Fits regular Bronco 2.3L and 2.7L applications
• Not compatible with the factory Everglades snorkel

Filter care

This version uses a dry filter, so do not add filter oil. Follow the filter maker’s instructions for inspection and service. Dry media is not one universal maintenance method: some elements can be washed while others require replacement. Match the service procedure to the exact filter supplied rather than treating every dry element the same way. Dusty trails can require attention sooner than normal paved-road driving. Check the intake after a dusty outing and after work near the airbox. A loose clamp, damaged seal, or poorly seated lid should be corrected before continued use.

Installation and fitment

Select this kit by its engine and years, rather than by trim badge alone. A Badlands, Outer Banks, or Big Bend badge does not by itself identify the intake connections; the engine application is the deciding detail. Existing aftermarket plumbing, a snorkel, or an engine-bay accessory can change available space. Check those interfaces before removing the factory system.

Work with the engine cool and follow the instructions for manufacturer part 7R1100. Keep dirt out of open intake connections during the swap. Before starting the engine, check each clamp, mounting point, sensor connection, and vent hose that was disturbed. After the first drive, inspect the connections again for movement or contact with nearby components.
