S&B Sets the bar high with its new Intake for the 09-10 Ford F150 5.4L
Innovative Design.

The stock intake system incorporates the radiator overflow as part of the air box which presented a design challenge. S&B overcame this obstacle by incorporating a new overflow container into its intake design clearing the way for a massive air filter. S&B's radiator overflow is white in the pictures shown above, but will be clear in its final state allowing the fluid level to be easily monitored. Larger Tube, Better Airflow.

Engineering designed an extension harness allowing the mass airflow sensor to mount closer to the throttle body resulting in a tube with more volume. With greater volume, the restriction was decreased resulting in better airflow. Power You Can Feel.

S&B's intake for the F150 generates a 56.7% improvement in airflow at 380 CFM versus the stock system. The result, better acceleration.

Will an S&B filter and intake kit improve my fuel economy?

The simple answer is yes. By lowering the restriction level versus stock, the S&B Intake allows the engine to work more efficiently which will improve fuel economy. According to the Department of Energy, a dirty air filter will have an adverse affect on fuel economy. Fueleconomy.gov states that replacing a clogged air filter can improve your car's gas mileage by as much as 10 percent. The reason a clean filter improves fuel economy is because it is less restrictive than a dirty filter, so the engine works less to consume the air it needs. This S&B Intake Kit is substantially less restrictive than the OE induction system with a clean filter installed thus allowing the engine to breathe even easier which results in better fuel economy. S&B does not make a specific claim with regards to fuel economy because there are too many factors that can affect your miles per gallon. Dramatically more airflow in less than 30 minutes. Great looks are just the beginning. S&B Cold Air Intakes are easy to install providing you with an OE fit and aftermarket performance. Stops the dirt.

Don't forget about filtration because S&B didn't! Filtration is what separates S&B from the competitors. S&B is able to provided exceptional airflow characteristics without sacrificing efficiency. The performance characteristics of greatest interest are airflow restriction (differential pressure), dust collection efficiency and dust capacity. The ISO 5011 Standard is what S&B Filters adheres to as they seek innovations and improvements in their product line, and to test the products so they meet the highest standard possible. We feel this is the standard that all performance filter manufacturers should be using to develop their products. The end result is simple: increased horsepower by reducing the restriction of the air filter and/or intake kit while still protecting the engine. Trust your performance needs to the only performance filter manufacturer who tests to these standards and post results - Trust S&B

Has your F150 ever experienced wheel hop under hard acceleration? Both of our development F150's used to, but not with the Stifflers Anti Wheel Hop Traction Bars. Our 4x4 is naturally aspirated and our 2X4 is supercharged. Both experienced body shaking wheel hop under hard acceleration. To cure this we use Stifflers Anti Wheel Hop Traction Bars. They are an easy install and a fair price. Use the drop down menu above to add these to your purchase.
