Ford AIS Intake Install

[atp47]

Wanted to get an intake setup for the EX and went back and forth between this and the mod that many suggested. Decided on this. I found a good deal on the set up (I bought 2 and will be selling the second one NIB for 225 + the trip). Went in with ease (even my 5 year old helped out), Looks factory. Few pics...

Here's an old write-up in the General Forum -> AIS install

Next, look into the "Fender Sleeve" for even more airflow -> AIS fender sleeve install - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

Also, the AIS is available almost anywhere for well under $200 (rockauto $189 -5% last time I looked )

best investment you can make for your 7.3 imho. I am thinking about finding a connector to wire up the filter minder to a led light on the dash.

It already does that, doesn't it? That "Wavy Lines" indicator, in the cluster, would be doing just what you're talking about. At least I though so

maybe for later models, but my 2000 ex does not have that feature.

The AIS is a great system for these trucks. You might look into doing the fender sleeve mod to it for even better flow.

as long as the restriction meter doesn't move, I am not changing a thing. I have had it to 22# of boost getting on the freeway and the meter has not moved. no need for more flow where more flow isn't needed. now if I had a 5 inch exhaust, a big turbo and intake, etc. I would probably need to have more flow, but not for a stock daily driver truck.
