Okay there's been a lot of talk about the K&N 77-2583KS Cold Air Intake used for the Ford Edge Sport 3.7. I'm not here to debate the effectiveness of a Cold Air Intake. I like them, I believe in them, I installed one, I wish I could return one. I've installed them on my last two vehicles without a problem.
Long story short, with only 8k on the odometer I can't justify resetting the ECU every time the check engine light comes on, or tuning the ECU as I do not want to void my warranty. A few minor modification were needed but otherwise this is a good fit. Photos are below.

The first one shows the aftermarket intake hose I had to install to get the K&N rubber fitting to hit the correct angle to the throttle body.
Second one is just an overall shot. Notice I had to use the same Fresh air Intake scoop as OEM. I needed to cut it to fit.
Everything else fit well, it looks good, it sounds good, but it will trigger the check engine light. Given I only have 8k on the odometer I'll be putting OEM back together.
I'll post a separate thread on this so anyone searching can find it easy enough. Live and learn.
