Personally,I would never do that to my F-150.The Cold Air Intake is pretty much "bling" and its been my experience that they pretty much do nothing. Now...with that being said,I have heard on this site something about a "Gotts Mod". This is an alternative to retail CAI,s and from what little I know on the subject,most here think its a good idea.Im sure someone with knowlege about this "Mod" will chime in.

This is from another forum (and you'll have to join to see it - I think), but it's a great thread with pictures and everything!

Good link Charlie. I was able to view it without joining.
DrillerTom, you'd be better off spending the money for the CAI, on a nice hand held programmer with custom tunes. Look at Power Hungry Performance, or 5 Star Tuning. $300-500 depending on your tastes, and likely the best bang for your buck.

Good choice! If for nothing else, the tuning to quicken the trans shifts is worth the money. I haven't gained too much in the ways of MPGs (maybe +1 overall) but the new torque curve and shift schedules are nice.
So...who are you getting the tunes from?

Yes sir!
Great guy. Great service. Great tunes. Nice and safe, conservative but still unleashed some power. For just under $400, it's hard to beat.
