I have a 2013 F150 5.0 with a KN&N CAI installed. I'm wanting to know if this specific product will not only work but what an average mpg increase is?

I would estimate it to be about 1-2 mpg increase depending on driving styles.

I have a 2004 F250 V10 the gas mileage went from 11-13 MPG to 13-15 but the power is must more noticeable with regular gas and even more with premium

First, the Superchips Vivid Linq does work with your 2013 F150 5.0L. As for mileage increases, results will vary depending on the vehicle and driver. I tell my customers that normally you will see about a 10% increase in mileage along with the increase in HP and torque. Some customers see more than that, and some claim they don't get that much.RobVehicle Programmers

MPG increase is relative. It all depends on how you drive, what you are hauling, tire pressure.... The only thing that is definitive in the Superchips spec sheet is a Max HP gain of 24 HP and 24 Ft/lb of torque for a 2013 5.0 F-150.

Yes, works wonderfully. My truck had 156,000 before I purchased this programmer. After install I was getting an extra 4 miles to a gallon and could feel the upgraded power and response. Give it a try, you WON'T be disappointed.

In the post that I have read (and I do not have the ECOBOOST) when I trolled the internet is that this item is in no way any harm to the equipped ECOBOOST engine. It in no way blocks anything because the air flow rate is not slowed down that much. This came from a few people that have the same thing as you and bought this grille. From what I got from the parts manager where I bought the truck, Ford was in the process of having these inserts made and were going to sell them, but then they changed their mind and left it to the after market. I only have the 5.0 engine and I have not had any problems since I installed it. It really completes the looks of the truck.

I have been installing air intake systems and exhaust systems to all of my vehicles for 20 plus years. The combination of the two does increase hp and torque as well as fuel mileage. The fuel mileage can only be realized if you keep your got out of the new hp. Lol. Yes this system does add hp. Simple to install s well. I hope this helps.

Does not make a noticeable difference in noise but will help with MPG and some HP increase. I use K&N in all my vehicles:)

I put one on my 2013 JGC about a year ago. I have noticed a small increase in gas mileage. I drive 50/50 highway and city. I get about 18 mpg. When I get a BG Fuel treatment with my oil change it bumps it another mpg to about 19 mpg. I drive about 30 -50 miles a day on the interstate (4 days a week) and 15 miles a day in the city (7 days a week).

I have a 2012 F-150 Ecoboost with an AFE intake on it. I managed to pick up about 2 mpg on the highway with the SCT tune. That's the performance tune, not the economy one. In town, I haven't noticed much but I also have a heavy foot so I'm not surprised.I'd gauge your potential mileage based on your driving style. If you're in town and heavy on the pedal, it might actually get worse or just not improve. If you're doing more highway and you know how Cruise Control works, you will probably pick up a few MPG. A recent trip from Chicago to Michigan had me doing 22mpg, better than my truck has ever gotten before. That was with the cruise locked in at 75 most of the way, running 93 octane and the performance tune. I have a 2012 F-150 Ecoboost with an AFE intake on it.

Thank you for you interest in doing business with us!It would depend on what K&N; you are talking about. This particular product has the enclosed heat shield which will allow you to draw the colder air from outside rather than from the engine bay. If the K&N; you are referring to does not have the heat shield then yes, this would be a better intake. We hope we can earn your business on this product and many more in the future. Thanks again!

On the economy setting expect 1-2 mpg gain. I run the tow setting and get the same fuel economy as stock with much more throttle response. Take into account I have an 07 3500, 5.9, 6 speed manual

hi tammy......you would see an increase in fuel mileage but in the range of like 3-5mpg. that, along with a clean air fulter or cold air 8ntake, and making sure your tire psi is correct according to the placard on the l/f door, you should notice a decent amount

Maybe a minor MPG increase but not enought to brag about. I think it depends on your cruising speeds. Most roads I travel are 60-70mph and get between 16-17.5 MPG. I receive 18-19MPG when traveling 45-55. I noticed a slightly improved response after installation but don't expect a race truck. The sound slightly improved...mostly from Borla Exhaust.

It will fit very easily and nicely. It's difficult to gauge the MPG since I did a few mods (K&N; intake, Edge programmer, BBK throttle body, Accel COPs), but altogether on a trip from Alaska to Texas I averaged 19 MPG when I finished. Now I tow a lot on short distances and I get an average of 16-17 MPG.

You may get 1 or 2 mpg better but its not a guarantee. Mostly depends on how you drive, how long and often you idle the truck and also fuel quality.

Check the superchips website to see which model fits your truck. I use it on my 2006 V8 5.7 SLT Hemi, and I get up to 22 mpg on the highway with 285 A/T tires. City I get around 17. Cold air intake system helps too. I have a K&N.;

I put this tuner on a 2007.5 Silverado with the 5.3. Already had a K&N; cold air on it. Put a lift on truck with bigger tires and was getting 11-12 mpg. After the install of Bully dog, I am getting 14-15 mpg. Really just wanted tuner to help adjust trans after bigger tire install but gas mileage is a definite win. Also reads codes on engine.

K&N says no but it is highly recommended. It wont damage anything without a tune but youll get the most out of it with one. If you just have this intake and the rest of the car is stock, the computer will try and re-learn the Air/fuel ratio and adjust automatically. But again, its always HIGHLY recommended to get a tune in search of power.

if there is a better chip, I'm not aware of it . I have a 2500hd with a 6.0 L gas motor, K&N air box and filter. I programmed the chip for Towing. It definitely added Throttle response. But I can't say Ive noticed any mileage improvements. With the performance enhancements I think I drive the Truck a little harder. Also the chip requires premium fuel. Bottom Line if your trying to save money on fuel you'll probably be disappointed.
