aFe 54-22642-B Current Rapid Induction intake uses two Pro 5R oiled filters and two 3-inch black aluminum tube sections for qualified F-150 2.7L EcoBoost 2015-2026 and 3.5L EcoBoost 2015-2016. Own manual ends 2.7L at 2024. The original lower airbox and IAT remain; the vent insert is expressly for 3.5L only.
Current primary identifies 2.7L F-150 2015-2026 and 3.5L 2015-2016; exact own manual ends 2.7L at 2024. The original model-level 2015-2021 row extends to current manufacturer 2026 scope while preserving all original years. Eight genuine named groups are restored from exact selected-part tables: King Ranch/Platinum 2015-2016, Lariat 2015-2023, Limited/SSV 2016, STX 2024-2026 and XL/XLT 2015-2026. Actual qualifying engine remains required; neither engine is inferred for every named trim. Older retailer secondary 2017 Raptor/luxury rows conflict with selected 3.5L endpoint and are not newly added. No later 3.5L or related-engine inference is used.

The two alternate dry filters shown in the shared bill are not additional selected filters. Filter-flange clamps are supplied with the filters and illustrated separately from the three size 044 and one size 064 loose coupling clamps. Original lower airbox, clips, original IAT sensor and original turbo inlet/vent sensor hardware remain. No replacement MAF sensor or new original lower box is itemized. The short hose bill calls its material fuel hose, but the actual crossover use is intake pressure balance, not fuel plumbing. Both exact bills print housing service number 05-12972B3, while current primaries differ in stated shield material; verify actual selected revision rather than assume one shared service number establishes identical material. The vent insert and steps E-I are FOR 3.5L ONLY and are expressly unnecessary on 2.7L. Bill short hose length is 2 inches but step 10 states 3 inches; verify the actual supplied piece and crossover engagement before assembly, without inventing a replacement cut length.

Two 24-30003 Pro 5R oiled filters with five cotton-gauze layers each; neither alternate dry pair is additional.
Which engines and years are identified?Current primary: 2.7L 2015-2026 and 3.5L 2015-2016. Own manual ends 2.7L at 2024, so later scope is qualified.
Is the vent insert used on 2.7L?No. The exact manual labels the insert and steps E-I for 3.5L only.
What is the crossover hose length?The bill says 2 inches and step 10 says 3 inches. Confirm actual supplied piece and engagement; no invented cut length is prescribed.
How do the filters and sensor install?Filters seat flush from inside the shield with retention bumps engaged; original IAT transfers into rear tube.
Does the manual require routine battery disconnection?No. The 3.5L section mentions optional code clearing by reader or battery disconnection, with preset loss.
Are advertised power gains peak-to-peak?The marked 4500-rpm differences are about 5.12 hp and 5.96 lb-ft; run-max differences are 3.82 hp and 5.07 lb-ft.
What torque and recheck apply?No numeric torque is specified. Verify all joints and connections, then recheck after 100-200 miles.
Verify aFe 54-22642-B. Read all sixteen pages and figures A-J. Work on a cool engine. Disconnect original temperature-sensor plug, loosen both original runner clamps, unclip upper original airbox and lift out original tube/top. Keep original lower airbox. Fit trim seal to supplied shield. Remove original IAT with a quarter-turn counterclockwise twist and install it into rear supplied tube. Seat shield using original clips. Install both selected filters from INSIDE the shield, fully flush with retention bumps engaged. Fit the short crossover connection and mini clamps loosely, then tube sections and both silicone elbows with correct clamp sizes. Align all parts and secure clamps; reconnect IAT harness. Reconcile the short crossover hose bill 2-inch versus step 3-inch length before assembly. For the applicable 3.5L vent-insert procedure, work with original inlet tubes still installed. Locate driver-side original turbo inlet and release only its vent connector by pressing exposed clip tail. Engine cover and valve-cover end need not be removed. Keep vent sensor and wiring intact. Install insert with slash cut facing TURBO INLET, firmly seated and unable to rotate. Snap original vent fitting back and pull upward slightly to verify retention. Those vent-insert steps are FOR 3.5L ONLY and are not required on 2.7L. The own 3.5L section mentions optional code clearing with a reader or battery disconnection, with radio presets lost; it is not a routine battery-disconnection instruction. Verify all clamps, screws and connectors. No numeric torque is given. Recheck after 100-200 miles.
Current primary advertises 71 percent more flow and 900 CFM at 7 inches H2O without a current linked selected airflow chart; the later-engine kit chart is not substituted. Actual linked dyno marks 265.22 versus 260.10 hp and 309.57 versus 303.61 lb-ft at 4500 rpm, differences 5.12 hp and 5.96 lb-ft. Run maxima differ by 3.82 hp and 5.07 lb-ft. Both January 9, 2018 runs use SAE 1.00, third gear and blade fan; baseline 11:29:34 am versus intake 2:53:09 pm has slightly different weather. Run filename does not independently establish every selected engine/year or shield revision. Current primary 2.7L 2026 endpoint exceeds manual 2024 and is explicitly qualified. Current primary/manual California restriction applies. Turn14 authenticated access is unavailable and prices remain unchanged.
