Unleash the Beast: Cold Air Intake for Ford Excursion 6.8L V10 (1999-2005)
You own the undisputed heavyweight champion of SUVs. The Ford Excursion isn't just a vehicle; it's a statement. Built on the legendary Super Duty chassis, it remains the largest SUV Ford ever produced. But let’s be honest—moving over 7,000 pounds of American steel requires serious lung capacity, and the restrictive factory air box is choking your 6.8L Triton V10.
It’s time to let that massive engine breathe. Our Cold Air Intake with Heat Shield is designed specifically for the 1999-2003 Ford Excursion V10, replacing the restrictive stock system to deliver the oxygen your engine craves for peak performance.
Why Your V10 Needs This Upgrade
Driving a V10 Excursion should feel powerful, not sluggish. By swapping your factory air box for this high-flow intake system, you aren't just changing a part—you are transforming the driving experience. Whether you are towing a boat, merging onto the highway, or just daily driving, this intake provides the throttle response and power band increase you’ve been missing.
Key Benefits at a Glance
-
Increased Horsepower & Torque: Delivers a higher volume of oxygen-rich cold air to the engine, resulting in noticeable power gains.
-
Sharper Acceleration: Eliminates the "lag" associated with the stock air box, giving you instant response when you step on the gas.
-
Aggressive Engine Tone: Ditch the silence. This intake gives your V10 a deep, throaty growl under acceleration that sounds as tough as the truck looks.
-
Improved Fuel Economy: A more efficient engine doesn't have to work as hard, which can lead to better MPG during cruising.
-
Sporty Under-Hood Aesthetics: Cleans up the engine bay for a custom, performance-ready look.
-
Reusable High-Flow Filter: Stop wasting money on disposable paper filters. Our filter can be washed, re-oiled, and reused for the life of the truck.
How It Works
Combustion requires three things: fuel, spark, and air. The factory intake is designed to be quiet, but it restricts air flow. Our system utilizes a smooth, mandrel-bent intake tube and a high-flow conical air filter protected by a custom heat shield. The heat shield blocks hot air from the engine bay, ensuring the intake sucks in cooler, denser air. Denser air means a more powerful explosion in the combustion chamber, translating directly to more power at the wheels.
Installation & Fitment
We know you’d rather be driving than wrenching. This kit is engineered for a straightforward installation that most enthusiasts can complete in under an hour.
-
Fitment: 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 Ford Excursion with 6.8L V10 SOHC Engine.
-
Tools Required: Basic hand tools (screwdrivers, socket wrenches).
-
Process: Simply remove the factory air box and install the new heat shield and intake tube using the provided hardware.
-
Pro Tip: Disconnect your battery negative terminal before installation. Leave it off for at least 15 minutes to reset the ECU. This allows your engine computer to immediately "re-learn" the new airflow parameters for maximum performance right out of the driveway.
Don't let your Excursion gasp for air any longer. Upgrade your intake today and feel the power the Triton V10 was meant to have.
