That is the Air filter for a M1 Abrams tank. LOL. The AFE I got has to option to seal the box. I am going to test it out for my own reason but, there is something to love about hearing the Turbo spool under boost with it open. Mine has a GFB Dv+ recirc valve and you can still hear it Blow off in...
Yeah Buddy. the B models are almost exactly the same. If not a tad bit better. You had the 4.0l which had the options to mod over the 3.0L. The 2.5l was the modded hellion though.
Yep. I have a factory oiled Afe R5. when that gets out of spec I am going to dryflow. Not that oiled filters don't work. It just needs to be done correct. A quality dry filter will get it done.
I have been poking around the forums for a month or so now. I recently Acquired a 2022 Ford Ranger Tremor XLT. Got a ok deal with only 5000 miles. I am a previous owner of a 99 Ranger XLT 4x4 3.0l 5 speed. I drove it daily since 2002 until Jan 2024. I got a great story about the 99 after I...
I thought of very similar thing but not cutting holes in the box, rather opening up the inlet in the cover and extending it through the wall you cut for the snorkel.
I drove a ranger from 200k miles on a K&N filter. probably the dirtiest of them all and it was fine. Get AEM Dry Filter. Then are pretty good. Doing a box without going to a high flow filter is not useful.
I did notice that cut out below the headlight assembly that feeds down into the bumper section. That look promising. Like you said with the temps and flow. It is none issue under that threshold. That being the case, it opens up a lot more options for me. So, thank you for that info.
Thanks, I was hoping to work within stock config. I felt my way around the intel with the hood closed and it was straight Garbage pathway. Found some Ideas on how to improve on it.
I am getting new a intercooler setup for sure. CVFab or Livernois. CVfab pipes. I will figure out the Intake and...
The stock air path is not ideal though it worked for the Ford engineers. It looks like a compromise so they could fit the rad. rather it would have been better if they ran a straight scoop to the the front to the grill. Hell, chop the front of the hood over the snorkel and run a straight COWL...
It will be a couple days for the parts. then I will post a thread and tag this page. I think it might be to restrictive until under speed, but more pressure is less work and more power to the wheels.
i built a make shift ram out of the void behind the grill. I used all weather tape and some card board. $2 LOL. I notice some improvement in response so I ordered Big Mouth from Verlossa. IDK about the Mpg's BC i am on the throttle to much.
I am thinking about cutting a bigger hole in the...
I seen the the New Broncos have good outcomes with just a Intake. some where near 20HP something about them. The Ranger seems not to have that issue. However all the test are done with the hood open and the inlet for the CAI is janky looking. idk.
Thank you. This is the kind of stuff i am looking for. I'm pushing 310whp now, but most of that is brute forced turbo which is only part of the story. I looking to get better low end and reliability. I am going to look in to this.
I am concerned about the heat from the engine bay with those...
To each their own. I come from the performance first, glitter later school. So if it fits your style? do it. Just know what you are paying for. These companies just want to sell product and they make it look like a game changer. But it is not. If your a Roush guy, eat it up! I was going to go...
Great. Something to break easier. "Hey Billy!!! For the the new Ranger. Lets give it more Ponies but Nerf the Tranny. People will love it!" JK. I'm sure it will be fine. I like the idea of having something that is X's stronger than the motor can push. Thank bro.
