Bullydog Rapid Flow +2.6%
Afe Stage II +2.6%

I'm glad I have the Airraid!
Ya thanks I'm thinking about going with the Airraid

Banks is definitely the top but It's pretty expensive. I like Airaid and Volant. I suggest this to everyone looking at CAI so I'll give the the same suggestion, look at trying the Gotts mod. But if you are set on an aftermarket then go for it

Lol an ad paid for by banks is obviously going to rate theirs as number one. I'd do a little more research then just looking at an ad in truckin' lol

Here is the how to on here. There are other how to's on google.
https://www.f150forum.com/f4/gotts-i...ication-33219/

What it does is make the inlet of the stock CAI wider so there isn't a restrictor at the very beginning of the intake. It is very cheap to do (about $6) and you can add an aftermarket air filter in to make it better. I suggest it because its cheap. You won't get the same effect from it like you will a full aftermarket intake but its just my 2 cents.
