I vote Wagner but then again, I may be slightly biased as well. :-)

I've been real happy with my ATP.
Wagner is a great choice, as well.

Can anyone point me to a PDF of a 2013+ Wagner install instructions? I am ordering one in the next few days, and wanted to make sure I could do it myself, on the garage floor, vs. taking it to my mechanic. Seems simple enough, but I don't know how that electronic BOV is affixed.

Go to the Full Race website, they have a nice install write up on theirs, though going back in will be slightly different.....if you can't figure that much out might be better off having someone else do it.

The BOV is attached to the CAC with one bolt. Unplug the electrical connector. Take out the bolt and then twist the BOV counterclockwise about 90 degrees or until it releases and pulls out.

You need to put the truck on either jack stands or ramps to get the Wagner CAC installed. The smaller Ford CAC can be removed from underneath with the truck on the ground, the taller Wagner will not fit so go ahead and raise the front end before you start.

The Wagner install is so easy a cave man could do it. Took me 40 minutes start to finish and I'm sure I could do it in 20 now. No lift required, not even a jack or stands. You remove the air dam, unhook the hoses (2 stainless screw clamps and 1 circlip), then remove its lower support and the whole thing drops out. Going back is just as easy but it helps to have 2 people because you have to support and bolt at the same time.

I'm glad Mike is hooking you up. I've had a good experience with them so far.
