Default Performance intake manifold

A there any performance intake manifolds out there for these trucks? I have the 4.6, I know mustang ones will bolt up but I was reading that since they ain't *** talk as the truck ones you loose low end torque. Any suggestions of brands?

Run a 99-01 cobra intake and make up for the loss of torque with booooossstttt lmao. I don't think there throttle bodies will match up though.

Do you have a metal intake? Or plastic? Take everything apart and port it, will open it up a good bit...

Bout the best performance you'll get out of your truck intake wise, not going FI...

The part that meets the heads is the crucial part you will need to change if you go pi.
