Anyone know why this hasn't been approved by ford for a 22 GT? https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-9603-M8B

RE: carbon filterEmissions. The ā22 is subject to stricter emissions and āneedsā the carbon filter in the intake.
Yeah, itās emissions.Anyone know why this hasn't been approved by ford for a 22 GT? https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-9603-M8B
Itās not a filter for the engine itās because fuel vapors can make their way back out of the intake when the engine is shut off. Itās the same kind of methodology used on evap systems with a charcoal canister.RE: carbon filter
How that is supposed to help or do anything for emissions is beyond meā¦. Itās like what, protecting the Coyote from injesting competitive exhaust outputs? Is it to help the Coyote ābreatheā where there are allergens? Are we protecting the Coyote from other airborne pollutants that somehow affect its air intake? Cleaner air in cleaner air out??? Who got the bonus for that bogus contraption?
I mean, cāmon now - itās the most ridiculous component ever added to the Coyoteā¦. I mean why not just add carbon filters plugged into the ends of the exhaust tipsā¦. LMFAOā¦. Ugh
Wellā¦. The charcoal canister still exists on the S550, itās just not in the engine bay anymore or passenger side inner fender⦠itās under the spare tire well at the rear of the carā¦Itās not a filter for the engine itās because fuel vapors can make their way back out of the intake when the engine is shut off.

on one car itās nothing, on a whole fleet across every car the manufacturer makes it adds up enough for it to be worth it for them.
its not something that can be designed out unfortunately. Theres alwasy vapors and fumes in the cylinder even on the intake stroke. If the engine stops on the intake stroke with the intake valves open the vapors inside the cylinder will travel back out through the throttle and into the environment.Wellā¦.

And if thereās that much fuel/emissions fumes back tracking the air intake tract, through a closed throttle body blade, back out the nose of the car - then thereās other issues that the engineers should have worked out.
don't worry, the USA is leading the world in saving the planet. It's just that nobody promoting this realized that the air in china, like the rain in Spain doesn't STAY in it's locale. Weather is much too complicated for some people to comprehend.But yeah, the "emissions" out of the intake tract are the issue in the world.

This is also my problem with the "climate change" do-gooders in the West.A drop in the ocean. Meanwhile China and India pump out emisions to the point that you can't wear a white shirt without it getting sooted up by the end of the day. But yeah, the "emissions" out of the intake tract are the issue in the world.

Or the do gooders know they are safe yelling and screaming about this stuff here, as for the places you listed do you think they would be listened to or done something else to?This is also my problem with the "climate change" do-gooders in the West.
The combined 2024 populations of India, China, Indonesia, Pakistan, Brazil, Nigeria, and Bangladesh is 4.01 BILLION people, or *half* of Earth's population. These are industrialized nations where emissions and other forms of pollution are not a priority. Good luck with your carbon traps and plastic-free life choices.
Another fun topic is the environmental sustainablility of lithium mining once we assume the entire world will use electric cars and trucks.
This CAI upgrade system also includes a tune and it stinks for us ā22 GT owners because if we installed it then Ford can easily tell the ECM program has been altered. This could potentially void our Powertrain warranty. My next service for oil change I know the dealership will install a PCM program change due to a recall notice they mailed me regarding a low brake fluid warning program change, if any non OEM ātuneā program history is found in my car then my Powertrain warranty could be voided at that point. Heck, even Roush donāt offer their CAI w tune part number w 3 yr/36k warranty isnāt offered for ā22 GTs.Anyone know why this hasn't been approved by ford for a 22 GT? https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-9603-M8B

Because of this Iāve narrowed my search to only āno tune requiredā CAIās that wonāt void Ford Powertrain warranty. Roush does offer one for ā21 GT that works with OEM mass air flow meter (but does have an inner smaller diameter air tube which can be removed at any point to run the larger diameter tube that requires a different MAF meter and tune to pick up max hp increase). JLT has one also and both claim no codes will be tripped and 10-15 hp increase. Liking the Roush system better right now but having ability to tune later when my Ford warranty doesnāt matter to me any longer![]()
