Default Boss 302 intake

Is it worth the 450 bucks to buy the Boss 302 intake for my 2011? Is it worth the extra horsepower in the higher RPM's?

I think this is one of those things that only you can really answer hah. There have been some posts on other forums at least that I've seen people gaining quite a bit of high RPM HP, and if you end up in the high RPMs much, then it's probably worth it, if you drive aggressively but don't race it or strip it, then I doubt it would be worth it at all. If I remember correctly it only really matters above 5500rpm or so

If you race once in awhile or play around at the higher rpms and/also plan on gears and other mods....why not? I would go for it.
