$450 for a filter and housing...ouch! Are you looking for performance gains? Better filtration? More Turbo sound?

I am not sure it holds up to all Ford vehicles, but I have heard Ford actually does a really good job with their intakes and there is not a lot to gain by adding anything other than a drop-in performance filter.

I'll bet the open filter sounds incredible though. Intakes on turbo cars always sound rad.

Yep, $450 is a bit steep but I do like the enclosed design and the Roush name I trust. Certainly interested in any simple bolt-on performance gains including optimizing airflow and filtration...could care less about the turbo sound. Roush claims 19hp gain on the Mustang 2.3 version, not sure if the same applies to the Bronco version.

I've got a @mountune intake duct (from turbo to filter) installed on my RS and I love it. Maybe Mountune could be convinced to make these with a pop of color that matches the different trim accent colors 👀

I agree. Roush is a trusted name and I also like the design. I won't hate on anyone buying this, and If I had an extra $450, I would probably buy it, maybe 1 day I will.
I don't think its necessary and I am waiting for AEM to come out with a replacement filter for the Bronco. That is what I run in my F-150 and it has served me well for 10 years. Washable dry filter.

I'm already in on the $900 mudflaps, figure I should gain an extra 30HP there, waiting on reviews on this $460 gismo before taking a third mortgage out on the house.

I might be naive, but I have not seen significant gains with intakes in various street cars (key word, street cars). High flow filters have shown similar gains as a full on SRI or CAI.

Factory air box’s are really good these days, unless you get a tune with it I bet it doesn’t do much besides you’ll hear a little more turbo whistle.

I'd consider this but I want to know the real HP gains first
