Pros:
|
Good air flow, engine runs better, seems to like the extra air
|
|
Cons:
|
has a buzz at about 3K rpm, I'm going to isolate it better, could be just a loose screw.

I went from stock, to just the tube and filter to the full blown system. I"ve noticed a good Hp gain, the truck sounds a lot rumble'er going down the road. Most time is spent building the air dam, the rest is very straighforward, good instructions. If you lose them or your e-bay doesn't send it, they can be downloaded from website. All parts, plus a few extras come with the kit in case you drop a few on the floor. I have a TBS also and when I switched over I lost the poweraid sticker. The company sent me several more at no cost. Very easy to deal with, good company.

if you have a 2007 f150 built after 4-07, ford put the abs brake lines where the older style air dam used to go. there is a newer part number that many companys that sell airaid products do not know about. so make sure you get the updated kit. i found out i got the wrong part number (i still managed to make the system fit, just had to "slightly" bend/push the brake lines out of the way) but once i contacted Airaid directly, they immediately sent me the new air dam, no charge, and i didn't have to send the old one back. great customer support. you have to think of that when you compare all the different kits. it would have really sucked if i had to disassemble the kit, put it back in a box and pay for shipping back, then put my factory intake back in and do the whole thing all over again. airaid made it a very positive experience. i do get better acceleration, and especially punching it on the highway, really takes off. plus it sounds cool !

This product is unbelievably easy to install. I did this intake on my 04 F150 FX4 SuperCrew. Every part that comes with this kit is made to bolt to your factory setup. The hardest part of the installation was trying to bolt the air box down in front of your coolant, you have to reach underneath the box while holding a nut, a washer and a metal bracket thing... Would have helped if I had an extra pair of hands. I haven't noticed all that much extra power, but I don't drive my truck all that hard. What I did notice was the deep throaty sound that it makes now. At first it even scared me a little bit because I was driving in overdrive about 60 and barely gave it gas, it made a little bit of a gurgle. Very soft but definitely there, I could even feel it through the gas pedal. I opened it up on the interstate and I soon realized that gurgle turned into a throaty roar. I had absolutely no problems with this product so I didn't have any contact with their customer support. Highly recommended.
