AIS Air Filter System
I have a 02/f-250/7.3/4x4 & seeking info on the new AIS system compared to the Tymar system. I only have 16K miles and concerned with being under factory warranty, should I go with the AIS?
Talking to the dealership they wanted I believe $250 or so for the system and $95 for the filter replacement. Sounds kind of high to me.
Info needed Thanks

I'd recommend the AIS because of your warranty. That's why I got the AIS. I'm very happy with it. It flows just about the same as the Tymar and filters just as well. Go to fordpartsnetwork.com, that's where I got mine. Much cheaper than the dealership. I think I paid $189. You can see a picture of it in my gallery if you don't know what it looks like.

taxfree,
I'm pretty sure the AIS is available for the pre 99 PSD's but I believe you need purchase a diferent intake snorkel for the AIS though.
The standard AIS system is a drop intake system for 99-03's.

I asked the question about the older models and I was told there was not one to fit them. Hopefully they will get one for them. My dad would like to have one. I believe on one of the 99's you have to get the extra piece of pipe for the intake. I have the Ford AIS and I like it very well. There is also a man on e-bay you can buy the replacement elements for around $60.00.

That would be the shiznit! No way, at best on the highway running empty I've gotten 20. The AIS won't significantly increase your MPG, but will help just a little bit. You'll flow more air. That will help the turbo spool slightly faster.
