I ordered a Roush Cold Air Intake from Late Model Restoration last week since they’ve had some solid Spring sales. I installed it on Saturday and have been happy with it so far. The installation was a breeze and it looks great in the engine bay. The components feel solid and everything fit like it was OEM. It’s a subtle change but it has a much deeper growl under acceleration. I don’t know if there has been any real increase in power but gas mileage hasn’t dropped either. Which is a surprise considering how much harder it’s been driven since the install! My only complaints are the CAI didn’t come with instructions. I had to print my own off from the Roush website. The other complaint is most of the pictures show the Roush logo embossed on the air box. Mine does not have the logo. Minor complaints but overall I would recommend the Roush CAI to anyone looking for one!

There should be a set of stickers that come with it. You put the sticker on then peel the other plastic part off.

Looks good, but just as the logo is on their exhaust tips, so should it be on the air box.

#1 I got my s550 in the last 7 months, so i guess i've had the cai for about 5 1/2 months? Mine came with a roush decal/sticker that is supposed to go on the cai.
#2 I noticed about an average of +2 mpg when my car was still stock tuned. after installing the cai with the axle backs B)

I had the Roush Stage one with tune installed before I picked up the car. Now have 1450 miles on it. I am averaging 20-24 MPG around town and on the road. I am pretty docile with not a lot of WOT.........one or two to 6500 in 2-3 gear. Impressive for an engine with this much power.

So you had the roushified EB? I should probably get about that average if i lived farther from work, i now live with in a 2-3 minute drive from my job, so now my mpg is hitting the 16's lmao, i know for sure i get around 33.5mpg doin 70 on cruise control. Dunno if you've seen but since ford plans to cut focus production the EB's are going to the RS factories and will now be making apparently 330HP crank on 93octane stock starting with the 2020 line up

Worth clarifying here that only applies to the High Performance ones, there are still going to be versions with the regular 2.3 the same as the 18-19 Ecoboost for now.

It's an option package on the base or Premium Eco, replaces the Performance Pack.

So itll be like a RS/Performance+ package? honestly think thats kinda dumb, they kill off the 6s then start bringing in different numbered EBs

Something like that, could be the long term plan to phase out the base 2.3, who knows.
