K&N Air Filter safe to use with the ecoboost?

[Costcocombo]

Hi has anyone ever had issues with this filter? Will I hear anything different when I step on the pedal? I have a 2016 EB Premium PP 100% stock. My car has 25k miles and I'm changing the stock filter for the first time.

Thanks!

That filter will be fine. And the EB can't sound much worse. So I wouldn't worry about the sound.

Yep, the K&N comes with the Ford Performance Tune anyway.

Just one thing when you clean it lightly oil it if you go crazy with the oil then you'll have problems.

Had one for almost 4 years, but honestly cant tell, it does sound a little healthier but dont expect much. I also have the FP tune which got rid of the horrible fake speaker sound so my experience may be different than what you get. I actually own two and then just have one ready to go when I swap since like another poster said, you want to make sure you dont over oil and give it some time to dry out after cleaning.

Just to add, got a regular k&n when first got car, fp tune came out about a year or so later, then I bought a k&n gt350 style, both times I really didnt notice much diff, a little more sound on the gt350 version of k&n since its got a bit more surface area I guess.
