I have had one sitting around for months and just got it installed yesterday. I'll be happy to report on my results, but they won't be very scientific, hard to do a before and after comparison since my driving has been greatly limited (and no freeways at all) since the pandemic and working from home....
Actually one popped up on this forum. Got it for a 100 bucks. Should arrive today or early next week. I’ll pop it in and see what it gives me for improvement’s

Works great with the stock airbox and aFe filter, no issues with water intrusion even when driving in heavy rain storms. I didn't like how to drove with the roush airbox feels like less torque on the low end, maybe too much air and I lost 4 MPG so I took the roush box off

I'm looking at the AFE filter....how do you like it? I wouldn't mind bette flow but I don't want dirt getting by because of it.

Its been good I got the dry flow version for easier cleaning; I checked it after 10,000 miles and no dirt or anything past the filter on the top of the box or anything. the frame and pleats are about the same depth as the stock filter vs the K&N which is about half the size.

I got to install my big mouth yesterday, fairly straight forward installation. The longest 40mm bolt was a slight hassle but really not bad. I have noticed an MPG improvement over my first couple highway drives with it installed, but I also installed my tonneau cover at the same time.

I got mine installed the day before yesterday but have not done any driving with it yet. I am really excited about this and hoping to get my MPG back above 20, where it was before all my other mods kicked in (leveling, heavier tires, etc.). I have to admit I also kind of like the looks of the "lightening blue" Big Mouth installed on my "Lightening Blue" Ranger, although you would have to look for it to notice!

Looks excellent! I went with black so it isn't very noticeable and it's obscured a little by the grill light Still seeing mpg improvements even with winter gas.

Can you install this with a AFE Magnum Force Cold Air Intake System Scoop and possibly a cold air intake without a tune?


Improved MPGs would be nice.
I did. I can't say the Magnum provides any tangible benefit, but comparing the stock Ford 'horn' to the AFE piece side by side I can only speculate it makes for a broader more consistent benefit when combined with the Big Mouth - which did gain better highway MPG's by itself. I'm using stock Ford filters and a tune.

At this point I've modified the air intake system on my truck with the Velossa Tech and aFe parts along with the Mishimoto intercooler charge pipes. Whether the catch can and GFB DV+ contributes much to this I can't guess - I haven't fully rationalized what the tune and exhaust contributes to overall performance.

Did you have to modify yours to get it to fit behind the lights? Looks promising!

Not at all. They went in on the same day. Nowhere close to interfering with each other, just that the bracket for the lights blocks a tiny bit of the mouth.

I’m thinking I will just do the big mouth, the AFE and possibly an AFE filter.

Don’t have much of an interest in a tune at the moment.

True, it is pretty hard to find on the set-up you have. But hey, at the end of the day, it is all about MPG!

Is everyone who installed this seeing MPG increases??
Well, by now there's plenty of them out there.

What say you?
