aFe 50-30024D is a Momentum XP cold air intake for specified 2015-2020 Ford F-150 5.0L V8 trucks. One 21-91115 dual-inlet filter uses three oil-free synthetic layers and feeds two 3-inch wrinkle-black powder-coated aluminum tubes through a silicone merge elbow at the throttle body. The windowed housing is XLPE. It is not CARB exempt; exact engine, mounting and breather connections matter.
The current exact selected primary and own sixteen-page shared manual specify 2015-2020 F-150 5.0L V8. Preserve the existing 2015-2020 model-level application and add only six named groups evidenced for this selected part: King Ranch, Lariat, Platinum, XL and XLT 2015-2020, plus SSV 2016-2020. Actual 5.0L engine is mandatory; no EcoBoost, diesel, Raptor, Limited or later-generation inference. The exact selected-part retailer table corroborates these six groups; an old 2015-2018 title does not shorten current 2020 coverage.

| Brand | aFe POWER |
| Manufacturer Part Number | 50-30024D |
| Filter | One 21-91115 dual-inlet Pro DRY S; three oil-free synthetic layers |
| Filter dimensions | Two 3-inch flanges, (8-1/4 x 6-1/4)-inch base, (7-1/4 x 5)-inch top, 9-inch height |
| Selected tubes | 05-5030024B1 / B2; two wrinkle-black powder-coated 3-inch aluminum tubes |
| Housing | 05-5030024B3 XLPE |
| Coupling / clamps | 05-01493 merge elbow; one #056 and two #048 worm clamps, filter-port clamps separate operations |
| Retained hardware | Original grommet and sleeve, original housing screw, both breather lines and optional wiring harness |
| Bench flow | The shared exact report shows Pro 5R 565 CFM, Pro DRY S 550 and stock 400 at 7 inches H2O. Selected dry increase is 37.5%, rounded manufacturer 38%. |
| Dyno | The selected dry report marks approximately 5,673 rpm: 318.5 minus 303.8 = 14.7 HP and 294.9 minus 281.2 = 13.7 lb-ft. Separate maxima are 327.2 versus 313.2 HP = 14.0 HP, and 329.1 versus 315.4 lb-ft = 13.7 lb-ft. Intake September 13, 2018 at 3:54:03 PM versus baseline June 26 at 11:31:26 AM; SAE 1.04 versus 1.02. Both identify a 2018 F-150 5.0L, 35-inch tires, fourth gear in the ten-speed automatic, 25% load and a blade fan. Baseline notes say stock; intake exhaust, numeric weather and hood position are not printed, so those conditions are not assumed identical. Advertised rounded point values and separate maxima must not be interchanged. |
| Emissions | Not CARB exempt; manufacturer California purchase/registration restrictions apply |
| Torque / recheck | No numeric torque; 100-200-mile check |

ONE filter has two outlets; two tubes do not imply two filters. Only the selected two-tube finish is supplied; black, brushed and blue entries in the shared bill are alternatives. The itemized #056/#048 clamps serve the merge elbow; filter-port clamp operations are separate in the procedure. Original grommet/sleeve and housing screw are reused. No new MAF, sensor screws, crankcase hoses, engine calibration or battery hardware is itemized.

No new MAF, sensor screws, crankcase hoses, engine calibration or battery hardware is itemized.
Does the selected filter need oil?No. The selected 21-91115 Pro DRY S has three oil-free synthetic layers; do not oil it.
Which tube is installed first?Install the tube with the badge in the LOWER elbow inlet, then its filter inlet. The second tube uses the UPPER elbow inlet and the other filter outlet.
Which original mounting parts are retained?Transfer factory housing grommet and sleeve. Restore original screw inside housing, use the two new retaining clips and reconnect optional wiring harness.
Does this require a MAF sensor transfer?The exact manual prescribes no MAF/IAT transfer or sensor screws. Reconnect both original crankcase breather lines and keep coolant hose and wiring properly routed.
Do dyno point values equal separate peak gains?The selected dry report marks approximately 5,673 rpm: 318.5 minus 303.8 = 14.7 HP and 294.9 minus 281.2 = 13.7 lb-ft. Separate maxima are 327.2 versus 313.2 HP = 14.0 HP, and 329.1 versus 315.4 lb-ft = 13.7 lb-ft. Intake September 13, 2018 at 3:54:03 PM versus baseline June 26 at 11:31:26 AM; SAE 1.04 versus 1.02.

Baseline notes say stock; intake exhaust, numeric weather and hood position are not printed, so those conditions are not assumed identical. Advertised rounded point values and separate maxima must not be interchanged.
Is this suitable for every F-150 engine or CARB application?No. Require specified 5.0L V8 and exact named years. Current manufacturer states not CARB exempt; no EcoBoost, diesel or Raptor application is inferred.
What battery, torque and recheck steps apply?No battery-disconnection step or numeric torque is stated in the selected manual. Follow vehicle procedures and recheck bolts, clamps and connectors after 100-200 miles.
Verify aFe 50-30024D. Read all sixteen pages and figures A-I. Work with a cool engine. Unsnap coolant hose from original tubes, disconnect both crankcase breather lines, loosen original intake clamps and remove tube. Remove original housing screw and two plastic rivets; unclip any attached wiring harness, then remove airbox. Transfer original mounting grommet AND sleeve to new housing and fit supplied 15-1/2-inch seal trim along top edge. Press housing into original mounting grommets; restore original screw INSIDE housing. Secure using two supplied retainer clips/rivets and restore optional wiring harness to housing back. Slide ONE dual-inlet filter into housing until locked; leave its clamps loose. Fit silicone merge elbow and clamps at throttle body. Install BADGED tube into LOWER elbow inlet FIRST, then first filter inlet. Install second tube into UPPER elbow inlet, then second filter inlet. Align tubes and tighten clamps. Reconnect BOTH original crankcase breather lines; keep coolant hose and wiring correctly routed and clear per vehicle procedure. No MAF/IAT transfer, battery disconnection, numeric torque or new sensor screws is prescribed in this exact manual. Check bolts, clamps and connectors after 100-200 miles. The final caption mislabels step 29; actual final sequential step is 16.
Exact selected current primary, all sixteen pages of own manual, complete bill and all figures A-I were read and viewed. All three manuals and flow files have identical bytes. Blue and black oiled dyno files also match; dry report is distinct and was viewed separately. The shared exact report shows Pro 5R 565 CFM, Pro DRY S 550 and stock 400 at 7 inches H2O. Selected dry increase is 37.5%, rounded manufacturer 38%. The selected dry report marks approximately 5,673 rpm: 318.5 minus 303.8 = 14.7 HP and 294.9 minus 281.2 = 13.7 lb-ft. Separate maxima are 327.2 versus 313.2 HP = 14.0 HP, and 329.1 versus 315.4 lb-ft = 13.7 lb-ft. Intake September 13, 2018 at 3:54:03 PM versus baseline June 26 at 11:31:26 AM; SAE 1.04 versus 1.02.

Baseline notes say stock; intake exhaust, numeric weather and hood position are not printed, so those conditions are not assumed identical. Advertised rounded point values and separate maxima must not be interchanged. Current manufacturer states not CARB exempt and not available for California purchase or use on California-registered vehicles. Manual restricts public-road use in California and states adopting those emissions rules. No unrelated EO or filter variant is substituted. Original model-level range remains, with only six selected-part named groups added.
