Snorkel Tube Replacement w/pics
Great info on this site, thx.
I found a version of the Gotts Mod on here, using the F-250 snorkel tube to to open up the breathing a bit on the F-150.
Very simple 10 mins. Direct fit. Only cost $5.
Throttle response is improved a little and seat of the pants feels a bit stronger on launch. Here are some pics.

nope
2011s and up already use that tube. 2009-2010s use the smaller one. i did mine couple of months ago. not sure if it made a big difference, but i do have a resonance around 1550rpm that wasn't there before. not a big enough issue to go back to the original though.

I had to get it from Ford Stealership I'm pretty sure it was $5.76. I tried NAPA, Car Quest, & O'rihleys none of them could get it.
The 2011 and up Eco-Boost & 5.0 have the bigger tube already.
