i honestly cant speak for the 5.0s, because ive never driven one with a CAI unit...but hes right...theyre for flash more or less..the only time i get a noticable difference from my 4.6 w/ the FIPK is when its cold out...i drove my car before i had the kit for about 12k miles and itd been in cold before, but now when its cold i squeakl from 1st-2nd w/ traction control on...and my tires havent been wore down much...i can feel the extra then and only then...i think any other time i "feel" it, its because my tranny downshifted nicely or something, so i feel the extra boost...its hard to distinguish when you drive in OD...

so youre prolly better off just paying the $45 for the filter...unless you want perdy chrome under the hood..hehe
