Just did cac pipe and ccv mod
Seems like my truck runs slightly hotter and a weird howl that gets louder with rpms. And a different kind of knock to the engine.
Boots seem tight and ccv tube is not kinked at all. Any ideas? Sent from my Desire HD using AutoGuide.Com Free App |

When I put my CAC pipe it changed the tone of my engine a bit, but didnt make things run hotter. I would check your boots with some soapy water to see if you have a boost leak. What do you boost numbers look like compared to before? I dont know what to say about the knock though...

They seem to either be higher or just get there quicker.
I've only driven her twice since all this and I think engine just isn't use to be able to breath clean air. It might just be my imagination that its running hotter. Sent from my Desire HD using AutoGuide.Com Free App |

I will have to go back and look at my data logs. Before I do a new mod I always go out and log some data at half skinny pedal and WOT just to get a before and after numbers. Ill see if mine changed any.

Alright guys thanks. What are the major benefites of this cac pipe. I just replaced it because of how bad the crimp in the original one was.

When used in conjunction with a high flow intake elbow, and downpipe it will drop your EGT's a decent amount. I saw 150 degree drop at WOT after the install of all three. Some report a slightly quicker spool up. I believe I saw this, but it wasnt a seat of the pants difference.

Never really knew how bad that thing was crimped untill I pulled it out. Now I need to get my ptp egr delete. I can tell that my egt's dropped at hwy speed. I'm now running around 575 @ 75mph on the kem 210.

I agree. It doesnt look that crimped, and then you pull it out and you see the mess that it is. It was a terrible design from ford from the get go. It always makes me laugh when you see stuff like that. Is it really that hard to make a radiator support about a 1/2" wider and fit the pipe in from the factory?
