Introducing the 04-08 Ford F-150 aFe Stage 2 Pro 5R aFe Power Cold Air Intake, the new standard in automotive intake perfection.
The "aFe" in "aFe Power" is short for Advanced Flow Engineering, and that name is no boast. They don't try to make Joe Shmoe friendly intakes like K&N, or just clone the stock intake pipe like AEM does. No. They are all about power. Pure, unrivaled, superior horsepower and torque gains that comes from intensive engineering and research.
Unlike most intake manufacturers these days, aFe Power is one of the rare few that releases their dyno numbers for horsepower gains. Why? Because they are all putting out top tier power that is the same or higher than the competition. If aFe does make an intake for your car, you can be sure it's one of the most powerful around.
This particular intake is from aFe's Pro 5R line, the Advanced FLOW Engineering Magnum FORCE Stage-2 Si P5R Cold Air Intake System (which has got to be the record for longest product name in the industry), which boasts a higher level of performance than the Stage 1, in a slick OEM looking package.

Ford F-150 Cold Air Intake System Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install my new Cold Air Intake myself?
If you have a decent amount of technical knowledge and can follow instructions, you should be able to follow the instructions and install a cold air intake onto your Ford F-150 yourself. K&N FIPK intakes by far offer the best instructions with multiple pictures, though AEM is close behind.
What kind of power can I expect to get on my Ford F-150 from an AEM, Spyder, or K&N FIPK Cold Air Intake?
Power increases vary by application, but you could expect anywhere from a 3-15hp increase under optimal conditions.
Are Cold Air Intakes safe in the rain?
NO CAR should ever be operated during flooding. Unlike short ram intakes, cold air intakes draw air from a relatively low position. Your vehicle can technically ingest water from rain puddles, streams, floods, etc if your car is lowered or the water is deep enough, and damage your engine. To prevent this, you could install the appropriate sized AEM Bypass valve onto your Ford F-150's AEM or Spyder Cold Air Intake, however, we instead recommend switching to your vehicles stock intake system if you anticipate driving through flood conditions. K&N FIPK Intakes do not require bypass valves since their design is higher than AEM and Spyder, and are relatively safe from water ingestion.
