Will the new intake replace the accordion intake piping?

Absolutely. Unless you want to keep accordion sections. We will use high grade aluminum and powder coat a color or leave raw aluminum look. Will include silicone couplers, band clamps, and air filter. I called all the vendors today including Roush, Steeda, K&N, and Airraid. None have plans for the Edge.

The issue I would have with that is that those metal intakes can really absorb and hold a lot of heat. It would look nice though. On a hot day driving in rush hour traffic, the intake could get seriously hot.

if you can replace all the piping for $400. I'm sold. though from my own knowledge of removing the turbo silencers, replacing all the piping is a fvcking nightmare!

Just bought Edge Sport. I have a race shop where we custom fab intakes and exhaust. Would any of you be interested in a kit? I will get the shop to make one and post some pics. Estimate labor and material to be around $400? I have done the same with Hyundai Rspec vehicles. I can powder coat our kits to any color you want. Email if you want. EMP@enhancedmotorsports.com

 

I'd be game!

I'm interested.

Send an e-mail to the address he put in the post, I did. The more of us that do, the greater likely hood they will put the development in.

Spot on. Heat soak on this engine is a bad deal. I'm also a bit reluctant to use the KN ultra low protection paper and oil filters. Going hotter and with less protection is a frag waiting to happen.

Flipside being, metal intakes will dissipate heat quicker and plastic intakes will hold in heat longer. What value that has to you depends on the driving conditions you are addressing. If trying to address the engine bay heat issue through CAI, you can try lining the inside of the box with insulation. Hard to do with the tube tho, so the insulation would have to be on the outside. You CAN choose materials with far better heat rejection than the typical thermoplastic, but you have to have $$$ or access to said materials as part of a shop operation.

Can someone please tell me which AFE filter, or other air filter, fits the 2.7L Ecoboost?

 

There's a lot of conflicting info out there and none of the sites seem to recognize fitment for the Edge Sport.

I've got this one : aFe Power 31-10260 Magnum FLOW Performance Air Filter (Dry, 3-Layer) non-oiled, also fits the fusion sport i believe
