Default Air intake - Ford

Hi again,
I'm just wanting to confirm a couple things on my shopping list:

K&N filter RU-3550
MAF
Throttle body with IAC & TPS
EGR setup
Upper and lower intake manifold with throttle cable bracket

Is there anything else I'm missing? Just need to know because my engine is a SN95(94-95 Mustang) and all this stuff needs to be changed out for fox style.
Also, what do you use for the tube between the MAF and the TB? And the air filter just mounts directly onto the MAF housing?

thanks,
Brad

I think that most use the Mustang's intake tube, but they mount it backwards (MAF end to T/B, T/B end to MAF). I opted to go a different route, & made a cold air set-up. I am not a fan of having an open style air filter under hood that is sucking in hot, turbulent air. I don't think that the MAF likes it either.

Yes, I'm not too fussy about the under hood heat either. That can be a project after I get it completed. Thanks for the info.
