    Boss Intake

    Get a lot of questions about the Boss intake manifold for the 11+ GT Mustangs. Here is a customers 12 GT we dyno tuned, car had a steeda CAI, boss intake and 4.10's when it came in...car is an auto.

    The second graph is my auto 13 gt that has no bolt on parts, factory gears are 3.15's, I do have a tune.

    If I'm reading this right, the boss intake kills torque?

    From what I've personally seen with the BOSS intake, they're best left in the box they were shipped in.

    No, it shifts the power band up about 700 rpm. If you're not shifting the car and winding it out past 7500, don't put the boss intake on.

    A friend of mine put one on. The car slowed down at the track, even shifting high and with a tune. He took it back off. They do look nice, but that is all they are good for from what I have seen.
