Did you put another bigger piece onto the airbox that goes back into the fenderwell? If not you are drawing in hot air from the engine bay rather than the much cooler air from inside the fender
Hey everyone FYI I was talking to Bill who wrote the program for edge on the F150's and he said that on the dyno they saw about a 8 hp increase just by removing the piece that goes in the fender
I did same thing with less work, i took that rubber ring that was around the stock snorkel off, and glued it to my 3" rubber coupler.

I was originally trying to do something similar to this but with the pvc inside the rubber ring to try and seal it in there until I realized there are holes all over the inner fender and just scrapped the idea

Hey GOTTS2BME:
Tried your intake mod, this time i reset the computer. seems to be working much better, and the engine really growls when ya give it the gas. also, gas mileage may have increased, and definitely increased torque! wheels seem to bark a little longer on the 1-2 shifts.
Thanks for the intake mod and reminding me to reset the computer
These are the only people that have posted that they have done it. If you would like you can add yourself to the list, just copy and paste it, add in the next digit and put in your name.
I couldn't get the 3" schedule 40 through the freakin fender at first - I think I cracked a molar trying to hang on to 3" hole-saw in the Milwaukee when I reamed her
Guess I could have just sanded the PVC - Oh well, She fits like glove now, great mod..
