Mishimoto R&D: Ranger 2.3L Performance Air Intake

[Mishimoto]

Do you have a Canadian distributor set up? Or can we buy direct and have it shipped to Canada?

Hey Mike,

You can buy directly from us and have it shipped to Canada. I would recommend giving our customer service team a call to order (1-877-466-4744). In the past, we've been able to ship via USPS to lessen the customs charges.

Thanks!

Right now i have a 3in turbo back exhaust, afe intercooler pipe with bov upgrade from turbosmart, tune from 5star with 2step cooler spark plugs, oil cooler and now mishimoto cold air intake. The last 2 things I have on my list is an intercooler and a stage 3 turbo upgrade.

Nice, who did you go with for your exhaust?
Will 5 star update the tune now that you have the intake? Thank you for the feedback.

Not really I saw a video of palm beach dyno with the same bolt on pushing 320rwhp and 390tq. After I install my turbo upgrade I'm planning on taking it to the dyno to see what it can do. But even without a turbo upgrade the truck is an absolute beast on the road.

So I'm waiting on my 5 star 93 perf tune. Would you recommend colder plugs with just a tune? 5 star didnt really have any recommendations but I've been meaning to pick their brain. My brother just recently tuned his audi A3 and they recommend new ignition coils and colder plugs. Im curious as to whats the weakest link on this motor

Yeah I would go with colder plugs cause EcoBoost motor are know to eat up plugs when running a tune. As for a weak point of this motor definitely top end power but that can be fixed with a turbo upgrade.

I see you offer both an oiled filter and a dry one, which environments do each filter excel in?

As long as you are running premium fuel in your truck you should be ok with the standard plugs. The only time you change the heat rating on a plug is IF the tuner recommends to do so. I have a tune from Livernois and still run the stock plugs and it does just fine. I also plan to change the plugs at 60,000 miles since that is the recommended interval for severe service on EcoBoost engines.

Hi Zak,

We typically recommend the oiled filter for daily drivers and occasional off-road use, and the dry filter for somebody who off-roads very often or just doesn't want the hassle of re-oiling the filter every 6-12 months. Both filter the air very well, with the oiled filter removing more particles under 5 microns, but the trade-off is maintenance. The oiled filter flows the best, but in a dusty off-road situation, it would likely need to be cleaned after a day.

In the end, if you don't mind the maintenance, the oiled filter flows and filters the best, so we recommend it for most of our customers.

Thanks!
