i dont have a mustang but i have 98 f150 4.6l and i wanna ask more guys what theyre take on which cai is better. i talked to a guy from outlaw trucks and he told me that k&n cai are good but i would do alot better off with afe and that afe is a better cai can anyone help me on my decision?
Nice truck brother. I have a 2010 with the 5.4 myself. I was unsure of what CAi to get, but you solved that problem . My only question is, did that intake cause your truck to trigger the check engine light. SOme say it happens because the engine runs lean with a CAI unless you run a tuner. Please advise.
@heatherandpaul2 nope no codes thrown. i removed the intake because i didnt have a tune though, i felt as if i was actually getting worse fuel economy and no power gains. throttle response was different though.
@hitmix300 I dont understand. It sounds as if you're saying that you took the AFE intake back off because it did not work due to not having a tune? Is this correct?
FYI the Compartments your calling stupid is meant for hard core offroading instead of water just going into you engine and water locking it, it will be going into the "stupid compartments" until it they are fool of water so it wont flood right away.
@bigdog813 Sorry, but the "compartments" are for sound deadening of the induction noise, they won't stop or store water, the manufacturers put these on most all vehicles, not just off road stuff

There is no warranty concern for installing an intake or exhaust system. I test drove a brand new 6.2 Raptor that the dealership put intake & exhaust setup on. The only way it might be an issue is if someone put a faulty filter on & the dealership could prove that it dusted the engine.
There is a small - (i believe it to be for the PCV valve) - plastic tube running from the left side (facing the motor) valve cover to the OEM intake tube.
Hey question on the instillation. Isnt there an oxygen sensor on the stock air hose? I didnt see it hooked to the new afe tube. what did you do to it?
i cannot remember, i contacted a ebay seller and paypaled him directly for less than the auction price (saves him on fees) and I save a buck. i think around 250 bucks.. totally worth it tho
Have you noticed any issues with the CAI, check engine light, stalling, poor idle? Im asking because I have a Raptor 5.4 also and have been STRONGLY considering getting a CAI for mpgs but didnt know if the extra electronics in the raptor would cause the CAI to not work proper. Any info would be great
no issues what so ever... its 100 percent perfect the truck automatically adjusts the mapping so you just need to install and make sure everythings fine and you'll b good
i am 100 percent positive ford is OKAY with it. i talked to my countys largest ford dealers head mechanic and he said if the the problem with my truck is directly related to the intake, then the warranty will not be valid, but if there is a electrical issue or engine problem not related to the intake, its no big deal. they are very cool about it here!
Sweet Sound of a V8 that can breathe easier! Looks 'clean' under the hood too. Waiting to get a White 6.2; Will have to do the same to it as well. Thanks for sharing, Man!
Awesome truck! Cant wait for the 6.2 to be released. Those extra compartments on the stock intake are there just to act as a silencer for the stock intake. Thats why the AFE sounds so much better than the Roush.
thanks for the info, i wanted to know what those stupid compartments were for... lol i think it looks like crap, this AFE is way better in every aspect
What? :( mine has a rev limiter :'(

@hitmix300 Wait, so you removed the AFE intake again? Did you mean you took off the stock intake or the AFE intake?

I have a 09 F150 XLT 4.6 / 3V motor.
There is a small - (i believe it to be for the PCV valve) - plastic tube running from the left side (facing the motor) valve cover to the OEM intake tube.
Is there a connection on the AFE tube for that?

Hey bro I appreciate you commenting back, I know I will get one for sure, espescially since youve had no issues since the install.
Do you know if it voids the warranty or are you unsure
