Amazing intake
This intake definitely sucks, and that's a good thing. Not only does it sound great but i noticed the slight boost in acceleration. Plus it only took about 20 minutes to install

Was impressed by the packaging and quality of components...even the instructions were clear, but they're not really needed. Fit was very good, minor jiggling to get intake tubes in position but very normal. SUPER quality, and looks great when hood is opened! But, I bought this for power primarily and it did NOT disappoint. Now, I can't tell exactly how much it added, but suffice to say throttle response was better, it sounds better, and on WOT it pulls MUCH better last 1500 RPM to redline.Couple this with exhaust ( I'm doing next) and I think we have a winner! BUY THIS!

Intake sounds and looks great. It was easy to install. As for performance I noticed a small increase in acceleration. Not bad at all considering its a 6000lb truck with just a cold air upgrade. I'm very pleased with the product. Also for those looking to hear the blow off valve this cold air kit makes it more noticeable.

Intake sounds and looks amazing, to hear the twin turbos spooling under the hood and the little bit of blow off in the intake piping sounds badass! Throttle response is defiantly better now too.

I purchased this system for my 2014 Ecoboost.Very easy install. Dont understand the comments on youtube about it being noisy. All I can hear is the turbos spooled and the pop-off valve releasing. Sounds awesome. i will be adding a AFE 4 catback system soon. I love it. Throttle response is quicker,didnt checked fuel mileage yet... cant stop stomping on it

Meh
So I've had this installed in my 2012 F150 for about a week and a half now and meh is all I can say. There is a slight gain in acceleration and no increased fuel economy. That said, it sounds awesome, easy to install and I was impressed by stage3 shipping and customer service. If I had it to do again I'd probably save a bunch of money with a K&N air filter.

The sound is by far the greatest part of this intake. It really wakes up the turbos. This along with aftermarket exhaust netted my a mpig increase as well as a little bit more acceleration. I strongly recommend this intake. Well made too.

Had only one issue with when purchasing this product and that was getting the product it tookover a week to receive this product from the day I ordered it. it wasn't shipped out to me from the company for 3 days after i ordered itwhen they say product will ship next business day. I probably will continue to purchase parts from them because they do have good customer service and good prices on parts. As for that issueI really can't believe how much this changes the way the vehicle performs really can notice the difference in acceleration and the way the vehicle runs. Very exceptional product product is very good quality and fit very good had no problem with insulation took only a few minutes to install. The wait was worth it hopefully on my next order from them they will get it to me faster so I can continue on my project.

the product looks great and sounds great. I haven't dyno tested it to see if it produces the power it advertises yet. the install is really simple (it is just a few bands that you clamp down). however. it loses a star because one reducing coupling provided in the kit did not fit... let me clarify; (first off, everything was installed correctly) one coupling was sized a 1/4 too small for the AFTER MARKET pipe. (how do you get your own sizes wrong?) anyways, I was given a 3 1/4 to 3 reducer. the AFE pipe is 3 1/2. so I had to order a replacement coupling that was 3 1/2 to 3 online, because no stores in town carried that size in stock. naturally this was the last piece I installed and I didn't check all the sizes prior(my mistake). I got the right coupling from spektre and got everything installed. other than providing one wrong coupling for their own product, I am happy with it.

Installed this along with the BBK Throttle Body, AFE Bladerunner charge pipe, and ATP intercooler. This portion of the install took the longest for me, probably becsuse of all the different pieces that can be adjusted to make the fit perfect. All said and done, the install was not difficult and it fits and looks awesome. It's made of high quality material and it makes your engine compartment look high performance.

Turbos breath better. Two pipe with a single mass air sensor is strange, but it seems to work. The large diameter pipes connect to OEM pipe and reduce available air flow before reaching the turbos.

Did this upgrade at the same time as a aFe charge pipe and tune revision. CAI makes a lot of good induction noises and sounds virtually identical to a BOV under the right circumstances. Can't report on MPG gains yet -- not really expecting them....but we'll see! If you want to get the most out of this aftermarket part you should get tuned.

I installed this kit on my 2014 F150 EcoBoost(30 min). The install was straightforward but a bit difficult to complete as some of the piping close to the filters seemed just a bit short. Holding the pipes in the filters while tightening the clamps on the filters was a bit frustrating until an extra hand helped out. Overall the system is high quality and seems to breathe well with moderate to loud noise without the optional cover.

I would definitely recommend this cold air intake to others. The only issue I had was trying to install it by myself, it can be done with minimal struggle without someone helping but an extra set of hands would be very useful. It only took about 35 minutes to install. It definitely woke my truck up in reguards to throttle response more than I thought it would. I can very rarely tell it's on there unless my drivers window is down and I lay into it. I also have an aftermarket exhaust which made my truck louder, if you have stock exhaust you will probably hear it pulling air in more.

Just got my 54-12192 in yesterday and installed it. The clamps that connect the two pipes (H) are way to small. I will have to go out today and get bigger ones. After install I started it up and sounds bad a@&. Took it for a ride and sounds great but didn’t notice any power difference. Perhaps I will after Stage 3 sends me updated tune. When I got home I wanted to check to make sure everything was still tight and the pipe was so hot I couldn’t keep my hand on more then 2-3 seconds. If it’s a cold air intake why is it so hot. Yes I have the seal on the air box. This was one of the most expensive cold air intakes out there. So far not impressed.

Mileage wise I’ve seen about 1.5 -2 mph more savings than my normal, I’ve been driving with this air intake for over a month. Excellent highly recommend. Also easy to install.. btw , don’t follow the video gide to assemble this just kinda follow the instructions that comes with it .. it is very simple. If you do it like the video you’ll have to re do a few parts again...

This thing is horrible and has done nothing but cause problems with my truck. I have used for a month and half now and first off the gas mileage has gone down 2 miles per gallon, there is no extra pep that it gives the truck, and my check engine light came on the day after I installed it on my truck and ever since the engine light came on the remote start doesn't work. This is the only air intake I have ever put on a vehicle that has made the vehicle get worse gas mileage and hasn't at least given it a little extra pep. Would not recommend or buy.

Customer Question I am curious if this intake is made out of aluminum, or polymer? It looks similar to the AFE bladerunner charge pipe in regards to its finish, and the blade runner is made out of aluminum (I believe). It also looks like this intake has TIG welds around the H pipe, is this the case? Thank you in advance.

Asked by: Noah - 11/2/2020
Customer Answer The tubing and the frame for the air box is all made out of aluminum with a wrinkle black powder coat finish. The overall construction is extremely similar to the Bladerunner intercooler tubes. The tubing is TIG welded.

It seems to be a tight squeeze, with the hose actually touching the intake tube. Is this something to be concerned about? Are there and solutions to this minor flaw?

Asked by: Alec - 11/20/2019
Customer Answer It could be a potential issue if there's enough rubbing to cause the hose to deteriorate. The quickest and least painful solution would be to add a mesh hose sleeve, which can be found at just about any automotive store.

Asked by: Robby - 11/6/2017
Customer Answer Not easily. The issue is the fact that the 2012-2014 F150s use a MAP sensor in the inlet tube, while the 2011 F150s use a MAF, and they have very different shapes.

Customer Question What is the difference between the oiled and dry and what is the maintenance on the oiled?

Asked by: Chris W - 8/20/2015
Customer Answer According to aFe, the oiled flows air slightly better, but you're not likely to see a difference in power between the two. The only difference that really matters is that the oiled filter uses air filter oil as part of its media while the dry does not. For cleaning the oiled filters, you basically need to clean it thoroughly with either aFe's Filter Restore Kits or warm water with an extremely mild soap (non-abrasive is a must). Once washed, let it dry, and after it drys, you apply the filter oil only to the outside of the filter media in fairly evenly-spaced streaks which will then "wick out" to the rest of the media.

Customer Question I have a brand new 2014 F150 with 600 miles on it. If I were to install the Cold Air intake system does it void the Warranty ?

Asked by: D.D. FOLDS - 6/27/2015
Customer Answer In general, basic bolt-ons like cold air intake kits have no effect on your overall Powertrain Warranty, however, all warranty decisions are up to individual Ford Service Departments, and it's best to talk to them directly about what kind of leeway they give when it comes to performance parts.

Customer Question Will this fit on my Ford expedition 2015?

Asked by: Taboush - 6/19/2015
Customer Answer Unfortunately, aFe only has confirmed fitments on the 2012 through 2014 F150s. aFe is working on a lineup of Expedition parts and accessories, but in the mean time, you can browse our 2015 Expedition Section for 2015 Expedition-specific parts or parts with cross-fitments.

Asked by: travis - 4/19/2015

Customer Question Realistically without tuning or additional mods what kind of power increase can I expect with the stage two on a 12 ecoboost?

Asked by: Mr Chevy - 4/9/2015
Customer Answer Out here in the real world, you'd likely see 5 to 15 more peak horsepower and maybe 5 to 10lb-ft of torque at the crank with just the intake alone

Customer Question How do I clean the oil filter afe intake?

Asked by: luis palomo - 3/4/2015
Customer Answer aFe includes more detailed instructions with their intake and cleaning kits, but basically, you'll want to remove the filters from the intake, blow out the larger particles/trash/leaves, then you'll want to run the filters under a hose or sink or other low pressure water source until the water comes through clear, then you'll need to let the filters air dry before you use aFe's oil included in their cleaning kit to reoil the filter.

Customer Question Why does it state that the afe stage 2 oiled filter add 2 more hp than that of the stage 2 dry filter?

Asked by: kruzer218 - 11/6/2014
Customer Answer Typo, most likely. That being said, you're not going to get much power at all out of an intake alone. We're not sure where aFe got their numbers, but nobody has been able to hit them without a tune.

Customer Question Very interested in this intake upgrade as looks like it would flow enormous amounts of air but see reviews show little improvements in performance with a stand alone install. My main question is with the dual filter/tube how does the MAF sensor measure both inlets when it's only installed in one of them?

Asked by: StraitFordGuy - 7/14/2014
Customer Answer Well, first the 2012 to 2014 F150s use MAP sensor in the intake (2011s used a MAF). Also, that sensor is one of three along your truck's intake system, all of which work together to help your PCM decide whether or not to advance or retard timing.

Customer Question If I instal this intake without a tuner will it cause my truck to run lean?

Asked by: John 2012 fx4 - 4/23/2014
Customer Answer No. This intake does not increase airflow enough to cause a lean condition, even without a tune.

Customer Question Doe I need to purchase the lid/cover if I order this part or will it be ok without?

Asked by: windy 2013 f150 ecoboost 3.5 - 3/22/2014
Customer Answer The lid is not required, and aFe only offers it as a way to tone down noise. This intake does have a noticeable "sucking" sound that some people aren't a huge fan of and the lid helps eliminate it.

Customer Question With the purchase of a 2012-2014 F150 3.5L EcoBoost AFE Cold Air Intake, would I need to purchase an Edge tuner in order to gain the horsepower and torque increases? Also I do plan on purchasing the 73MM throttle body down the road, same questions as before, would I need a tune in order to gain the advertized horsepower and torque gains.

Asked by: Brian 2012 Ford F-150 ECO-Boost 3.5L - 2/26/2014
Customer Answer We found that the only way to achieve (and exceed) aFe's advertised power numbers was through tuning. If you are planning on getting several parts for your truck, you should check out our F150 EcoBoost Performance Packages or give us a call at 1-877-578-2433 to save some cash and get all the parts you need.

Customer Question Will this kit have any affect on warranty?

Asked by: Ryan 2013F-150 Ecoboost - 2/25/2014
Customer Answer This kit should not have an effect on your truck's overall Powertrain Warranty. That being said, all warranty decisions are up to an individual dealership, though they do have to prove that any aftermarket part was the cause of a particular failure. our best bet is to talk to your service advisor about your concerns and see what kind of leeway they give on performance parts.
