Cold Air Intake W/Heat Shield for Ford F-150/Expedition (2007-2014) with 5.4L Engine Black

Maximize Volumetric Efficiency: High-Flow Intake for the Ford 5.4L Triton V8

Who It’s For: Engineered for Ford and Lincoln owners running the 5.4L Triton (3-Valve) V8 powerplant who are tired of the stock sluggishness and looking to improve towing performance and throttle response.

The Symptom: The factory intake on the 5.4L Triton is designed for silence and cost-efficiency, not performance. It uses a series of restrictive resonator boxes and accordion-style plastic tubing that creates massive air turbulence, choking the engine’s ability to breathe during high-load situations like towing or highway merging. This results in a "lazy" throttle feel and a lack of low-end grunt when you need to get a heavy F-150 or Expedition moving.

The Engineering Fix: This system replaces that restrictive plastic plumbing with a smooth, mandrel-bent T-306 aluminum tube. By straightening the airflow path and utilizing a steel heat shield to isolate the filter from radiant engine bay heat, we significantly increase the air density entering the combustion chamber. This optimization of the intake charge allows for more efficient combustion, resulting in a sharper throttle snap and a rugged induction growl that sounds like a true V8 should.

Why Mechanics Choose This Kit

• Optimized Power Band: By reducing vacuum restriction, this kit allows the 5.4L Triton to realize an 8-10% increase in horsepower and 6-8% more torque, which is critical for maintaining speed while hauling heavy loads.
• Acoustic Induction Roar: Eliminates the factory baffles to provide a deep, throaty tone under acceleration without being obnoxious at cruising speeds.
• High-Density Thermal Management: The powder-coated steel heat shield blocks hot under-hood air from the intake element, ensuring the engine pulls the coolest air possible for maximum oxygen saturation.
