2011 to 2014 Ford F-150 Pickup with 5.0L Engine Gets Power from K&N Air Intake
- Nov 8, 2011
An easy way to gain power and performance is to bolt on a K&N air intake system custom designed to fit your 2011 and 2012 Ford F-150 pickup with 5.0L engine. If you have a different F-150 use K&N's vehicle search. Part number 57-2581 fits the 5.0 liter model. It includes a low restriction K&N air filter and free-flowing roto-molded intake tube. Dyno testing was performed on the 57-2581, and revealed an estimated gain just under 12 horsepower at 5304 rpm when installed on 2011 Ford F-150 models with the 5.0 liter engine. The 57-2581 is equipped with air filter part RC-5173, which is washable and reusable. This over-sized performance air filter can go for up to 100,000 miles before it needs servicing depending on driving conditions. It allows high air flow while providing outstanding filtration. In order to provide cooler air to the engine the RC-5173 is isolated from much of the engine heat by a custom designed heat shield. It is placed on top of the OE inlet in the lower airbox assembly so it can direct cooler outside air toward the air filter. Owners of a 2011 to 2014 Ford F-150 5.0L can feel confident with K&N's 57-2581 performance air intake, because it is backed by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty®. The 57-2581 comes with simple installation instructions and can be installed in 90 minutes or less. Check out the 2011 and 2012 Ford F-150 5.0L Non-Metallic Air Intake Installation Video.
