thoughts on installing the Boss 302 intake
Has anyone installed the Boss 302 Intake on your 11 gt?
If so do you like the performance? is it noticable?
Or are you thinking of doing this?
I was thinking of getting this and a custom Tune run that for a while and later put a procharger on. Do not have the money to do the procharger right now.

Haven't done it myself, but from what I've been reading, its definitely a worthwhile mod, netting your about 40 hp. Higher flow should also net you more gains once you do install the supercharger. There are several sources to buy the intake, but check the Steeda site, I think they have a list of parts that should make the installation easier.

I haven't installed it, but I think it nets you some horsepower up top while losing a little bit of torque down low. It will not clear the stock brace, but I think either the stock V6 brace or the Ford Racing one mentioned above will work for it. From what I've read, it seems like a great mod to have. You'll definitely want to get a custom tune to get the most out of it.

You see there is very little torque loss, but the top end power is fantastic.

I run the BOSS Manifold on my ProCharged Car, and I have to say it is a night-&-day difference. By far, this has been the greatest "bolt on" I've added. I agree that the stock brace will not cover it, however the Steeda brace will (see my image below). As I've mentioned on other threads, you do lose noticeably at the low end. However, from what I understand, the addition of the L&M throttle body combats this. I haven't pulled the trigger on the L&M because they're having trouble delivering. I think I'm gonna wait for the FRPP TB. But let me tell you, get this thing above 4500rpm, when my car builds boost, and I have had my car pinned before I knew it. The car is an absolute rocket from 60-160. I didn't get the $200 "installation kit", which you can easily do with the zip ties and some 5/8 vacuum line. As for MPG, I really haven't noticed a difference, but I've had the car off the road for a little while for other mods.

Thanks for the responses I think I am definitely going to go the boss intake route along with the air raid cai and the tune from bamma To put it all together. I need to wait a which on the pro charger but that will be the next one
