I use the Super Chips and reload the performance program. It erases the on board computer. I ran my truck to work several days ago and now, back home, today. I had trouble getting my expedition up to 100 mph before the Mod. Today, after the Gotts Mod to the air intake, we went over 100 mph. I had to slow as my exit was rapidly approaching. Definitely, a big difference on WOT. I think that is where you will notice it most. I have no idle problems at all. I think disconnecting the battery for those who don't have Super Chips or something to erase the computer is the way to go. Your computer has to relearn your driving, etc. but should except the changes to the air coming in. By the way, those of you doing this or considering, look at your vacuum lines and elbows. My truck is a 1999. Most of the elbows were dry rotted and flattened. Please take a moment to replace the set up. I had to remove and replace with 3/8" line. I used Transmission hose. It is strong, won't collapse under the vacuum, will take the heat and won't be effected by oil residue. I definitely recommend the Gott's mod on the air intake. I am going up on Thursday to haul a 6500 lb camper trailer back. 265 miles. I was looking for a little more power. I will let you know the highway mileage up without a load and back with the trailer. Peace out. Thank you to those who contributed to photos and experimentation and posting your results.
