6.2L Intake

Hi Guys
I have been playing around with an AFE 6.2L Raptor Intake, seeing what fits and doesn't on a Super Duty. Thought i would share some random pics.

Will do, I have a few small alterations to make it fit the Superduty and then the tunes needs to be altered for the larger diameter tube. It does look pretty slick in black.

Update! Got everything to fit nicely on the truck. See pics..
Positive made more hp/tq with intake and exhaust BUT negative the sound stinks... no way i can drive daily or tow with this intake.
So back to the drawing board to see if i can reduce this sound this intake makes.... Maybe i am getting old ....

Something similar to that and add a jack hammer sound to it ...dont get me wrong sounds mean has h3ll but towing ???...
i am still working on the calibration for it so i have some more time to work on the noise and i hear tale there is another 1 or 2 intakes coming out for the Raptor which we may look into again for the SD.

I agree hold off right now on these. Some times thats just the way it go's with the aftermarket... thats why i like to try out new stuff on our own trucks before putting my name on it.. .

I love the looks of the intake, but I'm taken back by the sound reference. Can you post video of the sound?

Peak hp of 293?

Please tell me what I'm missing... isn't the stock 6.2 supposed to put out 385hp? Is that at the crank?
