Overview

This intake system replaces the original air filter location with a large, open-element air inlet protected by Cold Air Dam panels. These panels utilize factory cold air inlet ducts and add new passages to the filter, while also isolating it from hot engine bay air using weather stripping. It includes a replacement low-restriction intake tube and a 360-degree conical, washable, and reusable AIRAID premium air filter that offers superior filtration over traditional paper filters.

Show original supplier description

This system goes beyond a simple filter replacement by incorporating Cold Air Dam panels that utilize existing factory cold air ducts while adding new ones, ensuring a steady, free-flowing supply of cooler outside air. These panels effectively seal against the underside of the hood with blade-style weather stripping, isolating the filter from the heat of the engine compartment. The intake features a low-restriction intake tube and a 360-degree conical AIRAID premium air filter. This filter is washable and reusable, offering less restriction and superior filtration compared to standard paper filters. It is constructed with a plastic intake tube and an oiled filter element. This AIRAID intake system is designed to fit a range of Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles, including the 2010-2019 Ford Flex (Limited, SEL, Titanium), 2010-2017 Ford Taurus SHO, 2010-2016 Lincoln MKS EcoBoost, and various Lincoln MKT models from 2010-2019. It's important to verify the specific submodel and year for exact compatibility. Note: Some AIRAID air intakes may not be legal for sale or use in California and other states adopting California emission standards. It is recommended to check the product's vehicle applications and legal status for your specific region.
