Quick question.... Is it a direct bold on if I get a boss 302 intake manifold for my 5.0?

 

Yes other then I believe you can't use stock air box and you'll need a tune... Someone correct me if I'm wrong on the air box I'm sure there's probably a way to get it to work

 

There is a kit out there for what you wanna do.

I'm not saying "buy this" or "this is the one" Just that if you look, I'm sure you will find that someone makes a kit for it or has the answer to your question.
Hope this helps.

 

I think the Boss 302 intake manifold looks sweet. Does it really make that much difference vs a tune alone?

 

Thanks guys. I'm just curious if it will work. It's tempting.

 

I am using stock airbox and tube with my boss intak. Originally bought 5star kit But I live in very dusty environment and prefer stock filter.

 

Yes the boss plus a tune beats just the tune hands down 5star has some dyno graphs to compare.. It gains a lil torque down low and more torque and horsepower up top... If I remember correctly it makes more torque all the way across the rpm range now of course it's not a monster amount all the way across but still a gain nonetheless all the way across

 

Had one on my mustang and it definaty pulled harder with it

 

I have the boss 302 intake from Mike at 5 star, on my '11 fx4. I'm taking it off this weekend, cause the dealer, where I'm trading it wants it stock. When they test drove the truck, he ask me what I had done to it? I showed him, and he was very impressed with the performance. I ran the 93 tune most of the time. We also put a Flowmaster super 44. The truck ran awesome. Mike at 5 star is awesome. Very satisfied.

 

Man I like this...gotta read up more on it...
