Best fitting 6" intake on the market. Clears bigger cam covers and tucks into fender well nicely.
You don't need an air boxNice looking.
No air box / heat shield ?
Best = your opinion..
.
You have an intercooler and heat exchanger for a reason and at speed, there is no "hot air" near the intakeYou don’t NEED an air box but I think it would be better instead of sucking in all that hot under hood air.
Looks really nice and easy to install tho.
The reason for my intercooler and H/E is not for re-cooling ambient air after it's passed through my Intercooler H/E, Radiator, Oil Cooler, and A/C condenser...You have an intercooler and heat exchanger for a reason and at speed, there is no "hot air" near the intake

Best 6" is supported by fit, finish and ease of tuning
So Ford is wasting design & Mfg. time, not to mention money, on the air boxes it puts on it's products ??You don't need an air box

Pricey at $650!Best fitting 6" intake on the market. Clears bigger cam covers and tucks into fender well nicely.
Comparing what OEMs do to their cars to meet emissions and mpg standards applies zero to 1200+hp builds.So Ford is wasting design & Mfg. time, not to mention money, on the air boxes it puts on it's products ??
On the new GT500's those air boxes are sealed..

You get what you pay for.Pricey at $650!
Ran the JLT for several years and switched to PMAS 149 and never looked bad. Lund swears by the tunability of the 149 and this intake is a true 6" whereas others neck down to 5-5.5 ovals in some spots. The data is with the Tuners and racers, it's been there for years.Documentation? Test comparisons? I'm not ragging on you, just have to point out that without test comparisons/documentation, "best" means "IMO best". And there's nothing wrong with "IMO best". Nothing at all. In the end, you're happy with your choice.

I have an airbox for a reason too

IAT2 is the only intake air temperature that matters. Mine has ne been over 140 degrees idling in Tampa traffic in June
The IAT2 measures the air temp after the blower and intercooler, going into the engine.

Hey I know one of those engine bays, and yes it's hands down the best intake for our cars.
Sounds like you found the best intake for idling in traffic...IAT2 is the only intake air temperature that matters. Mine has never been over 140 degrees idling in Tampa traffic in June.

It was argued my IAT2 would be high with no box. That is a myth and 100% not true. It was argued the intercooler doesn't play a part in IAT2, that's also not true. Can you have a crisp fire up, 900rpm idle, great drivability with a 6" throttle body and make max power with this intake, and maintain phenomenal drivability, yes absolutely.Sounds like you found the best intake for idling in traffic...
Oh... and for tuners... tuning yur car on a dyno with the hood open and external fans blowing
