Rough Country Cold Air Intake for 5.0L Engines — Black Large-Diameter Tube, High-Flow Washable Filter

Rough Country Cold Air Intake is a bolt-on performance intake engineered for 5.0L engines to deliver cooler, denser air for improved horsepower, throttle response, and overall engine efficiency. This high-flow intake system replaces the restrictive factory airbox with a free-flowing design and a large-diameter intake tube, relocating the filter away from hot engine bay air to draw cooler outside air. The kit includes a washable, reusable cylindrical filter engineered for strong filtration without choking airflow, and it installs using factory mounting points—no cutting or permanent modifications required. Built from premium materials and backed by Rough Country's Limited Lifetime Replacement Warranty, this intake is intended to provide reliable daily driving and off-road durability.

How will this intake affect everyday driving and towing?

Installing the Rough Country Cold Air Intake helps the engine breathe more freely, which can translate to smoother throttle response and improved acceleration under load, such as when merging, towing, or passing. The cooler, denser air charge helps combustion efficiency without altering factory engine controls.

• Improved throttle responsiveness for quicker acceleration.
• More consistent power delivery while towing or hauling.
• Washable filter reduces recurring filter replacement costs.

What does the kit include and how difficult is installation?
