If you look at the 2010's air input to the filter box, it gets NO air from under the hood at all. So really it is a CAI. I just did the same home made tube system to mine.
What were those Ford engineers thinking with that stock system? Surly there had to be a better way to do it.. I LOVE the new sound!

Looks great.
Not sure about KY, but I went to my local plumbing store and picked up 3" DR35 sewer pipe and made this version.
My goals in doing this were, clean up engine compartment, get some throaty intake sound, and spend little money. For less than $35 bucks, I got all of that, and even though I know it does not add any HP, it just feels better, not sure if it is just the sound, or it actually is more responsive on the low end, but it feels/runs better, so..bonus! I also removed the little snorkel (Gotts Mod) which added some intake sound.
I personally like the mod, and feel it is worth the money, even if you spend a little more on actual "intake" parts.

That's the risk you take replying to several year old threads. Many people trade and buy new vehicles frequently. You can click on the users name, then view public profile, then click statistics and it will show you the last time they did anything on here.
