Vivid Racing VR Performance Cold Air Intake Kit Ford Raptor / F-150 EcoBoost VR-RAP-110

A cold air intake kit for the Ford F-150 2.7L or 3.5L EcoBoost is one of the first upgrades you should do to your truck.  The twin turbocharged engine that powers the F-150 and the Raptor will benefit from the improved intake design giving you an overall better driving experience.  The VR Performance cold air intake kit gives your EcoBoost better throttle response, allows the turbochargers to spool up quicker, as well as increase torque along with horsepower throughout the entire RPM range.  As you go through the 10 speed transmission, you will hear the turbochargers spool up as they take in a much larger volume of air.  When the driver is not heavy on the throttle, you can even expect a slight improvement to your MPG.  As tested on a stock 2018 Ford Raptor running 91 octane while using our Mustang Dynamometer, the intake made a peak gain of 10 rear wheel horsepower (rwhp) while maintaining a midrange of 12rwhp.  Torque jumped up 20ft/lbs over stock giving you more power off the line and when you need it most!   

Vivid Racing's intake design and manufacturing is all done here in the USA.  The custom high flow cone filter has a large diameter flange taking in air from 360 degrees around. The box design has been engineered to integrate with the factory air snorkel.  The air filter is sealed off from hot engine air with a rubber gasket that is mounted to the one piece box.  Connecting the air filter to the two turbochargers is a one piece, roto molded intake tube that splits off with a clean seamless merge.  With this design, the VR intake tube flows over 100% more air than the stock intake tube.  The intake is finished off with an integrated sensor mount, Vivid Racing silicone couplers, and required hose clamps.

Why Stock Intake is Weak:

A factory intake box can have restrictions from the stock air filter and intake tubes. Looking at the stock intake of the Ford F-150 EcoBoost, you will notice the corrugated tubes that connect the hard piping to the filter box.  This design can cause turbulence to the air flow.  When the air flow is disrupted, this affects performance as the air speed is slowed down.  While air flow is very important, so is the amount of air that can be sucked into the turbochargers compressors.  The stock intake features a flat panel filter design which is common in most vehicles.  These paper air filters are non-reusable and do not have the best flow or surface area needed to gain performance.

VR Performance is, as the name suggests, the performance division of the Vivid Racing brand. Under the VR Performance line, we offer everything from blow-off valves, shift knobs, and brake lines to lowering links, springs, headers, and complete cat-back exhaust systems. Everything you could possibly need to amp the performance and riding quality of your vehicle is available through the VR Performance store. Born from a passion for going further and getting the most out of our vehicles, the VR Performance line will unleash the true potential of your ride in terms of aesthetics, power, and functionality.

VR Performance Lowering Links

VR Performance is well-known for its high-quality lowering links, which work with your vehicle's factory air suspension to seamlessly lower its ride height. The lowering links are fully adjustable and replace the stock ones which control the air ride. By changing the linkage length of the air ride sensors, this gives you a much more desired ride height in all modes. Best of all, these links snap right in place of the non-adjustable ones and fit in seamlessly for a simple installation process that is also easily reversible. These durable metal lowering links give your ride the perfect lowered look without that pesky wheel gap and delivers a smooth performance with the OEM system. Boasting a rigid construction, this product was made to withstand the elements of both daily and more spirited driving to deliver maximum performance for a long time.

VR Performance Exhausts

VR Performance's latest release of cat-back exhausts is nothing less than exceptional. We offer a series of titanium and stainless-steel variants for a wide range of makes and models. Our highly sought after Valvetronic exhausts are designed to specifically increase the sound and performance of your particular vehicle. Crafted from high-quality materials, these exhausts feature brilliant robotic TIG welding as well as smooth bends to deliver optimal flow and power gains. And, thanks to the cutting-edge Valvetronic design, your OEM valves are reused so you can change the tone of your vehicle with just the push of a button. Electronic valves are placed on the outlet of the muffler which control the sound so you can go from mild to wild in seconds. When closed, the exhaust flow goes through the single outer tip which is quieter. However, when the valve is opened, the exhaust goes straight out to deliver an exhilarating tone that demands attention.

VR Aero is a division of Vivid Racing that offers top-grade, durable aerodynamic products that elevate the look of your ride while also proving to be completely functional in improving overall performance. Whether you are looking for individual components or a complete body kit, we have you covered with quality materials that will last for years and years to come.

No matter how much horsepower you have under the hood, first impressions matter and that means how your car looks plays a big role in the way people view it. Upgrading and customizing the appearance of your car helps set it apart from the average and will turn heads everywhere you go; even the subtlest changes like a set of side skirts can sometimes make a huge difference. If you want to go all out, though, investing in a complete body kit can give your car that "fast look" at merely a standstill while also helping it zoom past the competition on the track.

VR Carbon Aero Parts

VR carbon aero parts are crafted from 2x2 3K twill weave for a construction that not only looks incredible but is also incredibly strong. What's more, pre-preg dry carbon fiber has been proven to be ultra-lightweight and extremely durable to last for the long run. VR Aero's dry carbon parts represent the highest quality version of carbon fiber products on the market. It weighs 60 percent less than the "wet" carbon method and is also significantly stronger.

VR Aero components feature a UV protective glossy clearcoat to ensure the luster does not fade from harmful rays. The UV-resistant resin and pre-preg forming prevent hazing so your carbon parts will shine for years and years to come. And, thanks to 3D scanning and CAD engineering, you can rest assured that the VR Aero parts you get deliver OEM-style manufacturing down to the fit and finish. Installation is super quick and easy without any modifications to your vehicle.
