F150 5.0 1 MPG

Purchased and installed on F150 2013 5.0 and loved it. I have installed several other K&N kits on other vehicles in the past, same great quality and all included. A 1mpg gain over the stock setup with a slightly modified exhaust, you actually hear the intake breath better under hard acceleration. You don't need a choke. Body spacers (airraid etc.) do this only to add more room behind the throttle body, but once installed it negates any gain they made. Dyno's online videos prove it. Save money…

Pros
  • WORLD CLASS PROTECTION: Push the limits of engine protection by protecting it from harmful pollutants

Disappoints Best in Filters

I buy US made products to support US jobs and because I believe they are of better quality than imported ones. This product did not live up to those expectations. The instructions consisted of small black and white photographs of the engine compartment with large white arrows covering part of the area the installer was directed to. The photos were of poor quality and worthless. The text assumes that the installer is familiar with engine nomenclature. A hardware package was provided but did not…

Pros
  • HIGH QUALITY: Made in America.
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

Best cold air intake I could get

and I have no regrets at all. I installed it drunk and cut off a 3/8" vacuum tube instead of a thin one, so I had to get a piece from an auto parts store, but even drunk it was incredibly easy to install. Before the install I got about 15 mpg city. and now I'm at about 16.5 city. Others have complained that it's too loud on the freeway, it's only vaguely "loud" when you step on the gas, otherwise it adds a great sound under the hood added. Don't fit an exhaust on my truck anymore. The only…

Pros
  • TORQUE MONITOR TESTED: Tested on a dyno for guaranteed power and acceleration without the need for ECU tuning

What I was hoping for

I wanted a nicer sound from the 5.0 but didn't want to make irreversible or expensive changes. I checked out this kit and one of the reviewers said it sounded good and was loud enough that they no longer need an exhaust. I had to see it myself so after installing it and driving it I can say the same. Sounds great in every way. It has a great tone when you turn it on and instantly falls silent when you let go. With a small throttle, everything is like stock. Give it a little more, though, and…

Pros
  • EASY MAINTENANCE: No filter cleaning required for 100,000 miles
Cons
  • Available in black only
