Air filter

Trying to decide what air filter to go with. I have a 2005 5.4L fx4. Im looking to increase gas mileage and pick up a few horses. Any help would be great

I have an 05 Explorer XLS and have the same question!

I've done my research and come to the conclusion that I NEED to upgrade the air intake, not just the filter.

(I had a 00 Taurus SEL with a K&N, I always averaged 310 miles to a tank and it had some pep. Put one my dad's 01 Lightning and then we switched it back to a paper 6 months later. He could tell NO difference with performance or gas milage. We are interested in the AIRHOG to see what it will do. It seems identical to the K&N.)

I this worth the money to do this??? That's alot of money.
