What did u do to your raptor today?

Call Corey @RPG

Much appreciated. I'd much rather deal with insurance, no matter how annoying, over having to make a call to a friends parents...

I have a buddy who owns collision shops and he says Geico is the worst when it comes to claims. Glad to hear everyone is safe!

Aww hell, knew this would happen. Okay, let me put something together

After having my stock filter get very filthy very quickly at Havoc, I've been researching different intakes and whether it is worthwhile or the risk of them breaking or falling off is too much (like the AFE), or if the filtering is insufficient for dusty conditions, and have considered the UMP because of how well it filters, but I saw this thread:

It seems like people are concerned about it restricting air flow and reducing power. You happen to see any flow data comparing the UMP version you got (I'm not sure which UMP version RPG supplies) to the stock system?

Had the new wheels put on (Method Hole Magnesium), put on the new bumper (Lex Baja Brute) and had an inside/outside detail done on it (got rid of the last of the SDRR badlands dust)

My dad sent me this video asking me if this is the type of Raptor I had.



Also, on the way home my track selector on the steering switch stopped working but only for when I'm using spotify on bluetooth. CD works fine, using my ipad via bluetooth works fine as well.

At least I had a good playlist going....

my information is anecdotal to some degree. My Kenwood stereo system with Maestro gives me full gauge readings from my OBD sensor so I can see the MAF sensor data realtime. I also have a Solo DL so I can get accurate performance measurements.

So far (early data), I'm not losing any flow that I can see, and performance is same as before (stock & Airraid CAI - airraid provided some better airflow, UMP seems to fall between stock and Airraid).

Acceleration hasn't changed one bit, and the engine doesn't feel likes its starving.

Where the real test comes is the Raptor runs
1. it cannot fall off, so right away it beats every other CAI (with exception of a couple)
2. It's sealed - no threat of over the hood water intake
3. Much bigger air filter element, so it won't get clogged as easy as stock.


I can't see any downsides, was worried about starvation, but from my data so far it's not happening.
