    I couldn't find a listing for a 2014 2.7. Can I tell from the number on the sensor?

    I installed mine today.

    A few comments about the install:

    First I thought screws that came with unit were a little on the short side. I noticed that the factory screws went further into the intake plastic.

    Second the factory MAF sat loose in the ECO-Block. The internal diameter of ECO-Block is a few mils too big and doesn't allow the O-ring to seal between the two. This could cause potential air leaks, I might try to find a larger diameter O-ring to allow for a better seal.

    Overall the install was simple, it took me 5 minutes to install and 2 hours to cut and shape the engine cover. I will follow up with mpg feedback in a few weeks.

    Ecoblock came in yesterday, installed just about an hour ago.

    I have a trd sc with some extra goodies. Had to purchase different screws to work with the afe ii intake.

    I also have an afr gauge installed and did a before and after run checking the afrs. My reflash runs very very rich. I was hoping that this eco block would lean things out a bit.

    Unfortunately, the afrs are pretty much the same. I did the same run in 3rd gear on the same patch of road and the afrs remained the same before and after the eco block. I'm out of time for testing today but I might try unplugging the battery and plugging it back in to reset the ecu.

    Should we be resetting the ECU by disconnecting battery after installing these?

    That looks exactly like mine. So should be Q3. I have a 2014 2.7l

    Installed mine on Thursday at a half tank, my mileage since I installed has gone up a 1/2 MPG (@10.9 from 10.4mpg) and truck seems a little more peppy. We'll see how it averages out over a few tanks, so far it seems to have made a bit of a difference, just not sure how much.

    I installed mine at a little less than half tank so I'm going to wait another tank to post results. My milage stayed the same as last tank, too early for any good data. I drove it like normal, not trying to save gas.

    Not to be a negative Nancy but..... I have seen no evidence of positive or negative results from this product. Still holding out for it.

    ^ Agreed. Still lots of guys posting results on both sides of the fence. I doubt we will see any real independent testing of this product. That being said, hopefully enough members will try this product and then a poll can be taken of the results. It won't be perfect but that'll be better than nothing.

    I've been following this thread for a while now and considering buying this product and just thinking about it has made my fuel economy better. ...or is it the switch from winter to summer blend gas??

    The timing is just right on the release of this because most of us would normally be seeing an improvement right around now anyway with warm weather coming. I have had it in 2 weeks with no differences noticed.

    Also wondering if we should reset our ECUs after installing. Anyone know if we should?

    So at 3/4 tank I installed the Eco boost. Then at a half a tank I installed new tires. Went from 265/75s to 255/85s. I drove the rest if the tank and filled up giving me 17.5mpg. Which is what I had been averaging. That tank had some very aggressive driving from 3/4 to half tank. I wanted to see how the Eco boost felt in the 3-4000k range. On the next tank I'll see if the Eco boost did what I wanted it too. Allowing me to keep the same millage with larger tires.
