98 Mountaineer V8 5.0
What's up people I'm new to this site and wanted to get a question answered.I was interested in installing an air intake in my 98 Mercury Mountaineer V8 5.0 but i wanted to know if those partial air intakes like the one in this pic do anything such as better throttle response and torque.Is the stock intake hose on the V8 5.0 a really restricted intake? Any suggestions can anyone help me out thanks!

Air intakes all pretty much work the same when it comes down to it. Don't skimp on the filter.
 






Are those eBay ones actually any good?

I think like most things in life, you get what you pay for. I scored an el-cheapo kit for my 5.0 a few years ago and all the hardware, fittings, filter were cheap, compared to the quality pieces included with a MAC kit. As before, they all pretty much work the same. As before, don't skimp on the filter.
