Got a used one from DoctorGeek about 3 months ago.
Last night it exploded dumping every once of coolant over the engine.. i was a steam cloud going down the highway..

FORD should die for putting out cheap useless parts like that.

Dude that SUCKS. And it only had like 30K on it (you saw it -- like freaking new). It's clear now that you need to go with a PI intake -- more reliable and it's supposed to buy you more HP anyways. Or like me, go ford roots -- replaces the entire intake.
