I love this product

I love this product. Being off-brand, locked up like it came from the factory. Of course my turbo got louder and my 6.0 opened up, you can see a big difference. For the price you can't beat it. It was very easy, a simple install took about 45 minutes.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • There are defects

Beautiful product, easy installation

Excellent packaging, quality product. Comes with clear instructions that include photos and even a list of tools needed. Installed in about 20 minutes, looks fantastic on my 2004 6.0L SuperDuty. We will provide an update after adding a few miles :)

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • No instructions

Excellent for the money

I put it on an 06 f350 6.0 pickup. I live in the northwest anyway, I leave my town and go up the mountain. New air filters are $75 so thought I'd give it a try and since I had one on another pickup it works great. So I get around another 2.5mpg. It was ik to install. I don't write reviews but I love this product for the money I get for it. It does what I got it for

Pros
  • Excellent for me

Complete scrap ready for parts

Waited 3 times longer than expected for delivery. The instructions weren't that great. The filter doesn't hold up at all. It falls right off the fuselage. Online reviews say sand (treat) and all sorts of other suggestions like hairspray to keep it! This is rubbish, I put it on so many times in one day that the rubber on the filter just ripped, making it even more useless. I absolutely do not recommend this product. Ford Powerlift 6.0 Diesel.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Great price

Filter does not stay on

I would really like to give a better rating. The instructions were confusing but I know my engine well enough to figure it out. The biggest problem I haven't solved yet is the filter not staying where it should. The intake side narrows, which exacerbates the problem. There are ribs at the end of the filter to help hold it in place, but the suction side is completely smooth. I tightened the large clamp as best I could without damaging it, but the filter still slips off. I emailed the company for
