What-you-already-have ...

• the OEM air input system is already CAI.
  • inlet air is drawn from the fender well.
  • the airbox is sealed to prevent engine bay heated air from being drawn-in.
  • the system is made of plastic which minimizes heat transfer and/or heat sink.
  .
• the OEM air input system is MORE than adequite to provide air flow. *CAVEAT: UNLESS ... The engine has been HIGHLY modified. e.g. cams, heads, forced induction (when it was originally NA).
  .
• ANY CFM increase comes at the expense of air filtration. MEANING: less.
  .
• oiled air filters may/will/do contaminate the MAF sensor.

So ..... Unless you're considering an aftermarket offering for its engine bay cosmetics value, invest your $$$$$ in a tuner since there are no performance gains to be had with an aftermarket CAI.

You can buy the 2011+ intake air box snorkel Ford part #AL3Z-9F721-A for a 5.0L at the Ford dealer for about $5.00 if you want a bit more air flow, it is a direct fit and has a larger inlet. Don't waste $200 on a CAI, the benefit just isn't there.....

Your stock air box is the best, don't waste your money.
