Review: Wow. The throttle response is very much improved. ... - Wow. The throttle response is very much improved. I can't speak to any HP gain and too early to tell about any MPG change but worth it alone for the throttle response. Installation was very straight-forward with the only suggestion being that the weatherstripping that goes along the top edge of the box would be easier to install if a small channel was cut around the top and the weatherstripping could lock into that. The parts are of very high quality with the filter especially impressive.
Review: Airaid good buy - Over all it was easy to install took about 40 min. Helps with the throttle response and general turbo lag. It is less audible than I had hoped that is the only negative. But you can defenatly hear a difference with the windows down. It feels a little quicker normally and feels great in sport mode. Don't have any actual dyno numbers to support this feeling but from past experience with several other n/a cars and nitrous cars I am normally correct.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great intake
*by M***. on May 7, 2014*

Overall the intake is great . I have this Airaid on my 2011 Lincoln MKS EcoBoost. You can't really notice much power from it, but I did notice was about 1-2 mpg gain. Also, you can actually hear the turbos building boost when driving now, which sounds real mean.
