I have a 2025 ST. I am looking to upgrade the intake to an AFE Momentum with oiled filters. I like the enclosed option. My question is, if I wanted to add a BOV down the road would one work with this? Has anyone had experience with this?

S&B is a better closed option and yes you can add a BOV as long as you get a cold side pipe for it. There was a change at the IC…I can’t remember exactly what but make sure you look into that when selecting a cold side charge pipe for the BOV. I’d recommend contacting Brett at FenFab for that.

Why do you recommend the S & B over the AFE? What are the benefits to using it instead?

From an aesthetic point of view…it’s a better looking part.
From a functional point of view…it’s been tested independently to flow more air.

Yeah, S&B is the way to go.
