Not based on the mods listed in your sig. You might even lose a little due to the restriction of the MAF.

Use the money you have set aside for a mass air swap on an Explorer intake OR port the stock HO intake.  Not worth the swap to mass air with your cam.  With your 3.73's and 1.7 ratio rockers I'm sure your motor could use a little more breathing room as the RPM's climb.

He already has a Cobra intake;)

Really with the mods you have you really won't see any improvement.
