I emailed Roush

Here is there reply:

Thanks for contacting ROUSH Performance.

If the off road conditions you are referring to where there is mud, sand, water etc... This is not recommended.


SVT doesn't make a CAI for the Raptor for the same reason Roush cannot recommend using theirs in water/mud/sand.



No smart company doing business in the US will recommend such use and here's the main reason why:

i run a roush cai the main reason i went with this cai is because it is a ROUSH, also u use the bottom part of the factory air box. the only ones that to me are totally safe is the ones with tops on them. then i have to say if u are going to do that just run stock box with an after market hiflow filter. i love my ROUSH. cai and exhaust. LOVE ROUSH!
SHELBY IS JUST ANAME ANYMORE SVT DESIGNED AND BUILT OUR TRUCKS AND THE GT500. FORD IS JUST PAYING SHELBY TO USE HIS NAME. I TRADED A 2010 GT5OO IN FOR MY SVT RAPTOR.

Why disappointing? Roush is the last CAI I would choose. The open top allows so much crap in

Yeah...not a wise choice if you drive your truck off road. I'm thankful mine didn't jack up my motor. Its find for street driving but that's about it.

For off road I will either be AFE or stock.

This is my intake after 200 miles on the Toys for Tots Raptor Run this weekend. Intake was cleaned earlier this week before the run.

Mount broke (3rd time), had to try and zip tie it, zip ties came off. Filter is dirt colored and not red.
