Any mod plans for the boss?

nah. I am going to try and leave it stock and keep the miles low...in hopes one day it might be a collectors car rolling on the Barrett Jackson block going for $80k. haha.

I was thinking about cat-back exhaust....rims...etc. But, when it comes to a Boss, there really isn't a whole lot you need to do with it because it comes pretty stout from the factory.

As time goes by, I might do a few cosmetic things....who knows. The boss 302's will be just like the 03/04 mach1s I bet. (badass cars....but in a couple years there will be a new model out, and you'll need to pep it up a bit to make it stand out).

cliff notes: for the time being...no planned mods.

If money allows, you should at least ditch the dumb (IMO) looking stock wheels and get some of the 2012 black and machined split 5 spokes. Would go better with the car, and they are still technically Boss wheels.

Also, maybe a pedestal spoiler like the Boss LS has.

Throw some boost on it.

I didnt like the stock Boss rims at first...but to be honest, they have grown on me. I am a fan of some of the SVE drift type wheels, more of a straight line spoke rim....but I am really not in the mood to buy rims for the car....because then I'd have even more car parts laying around in my garage (because I wouldn't want to sell them for the sake of still having the original rims for a "collector car". PLUS nobody likes the boss rims it seems like....so even if I wanted to sell them, I couldn't. lol).

That'd be BADASS. I would like to do that. But I have been driving my 2002 GT (approx. 290hp to the wheels) for 9 years. Instead of buying a supercharger for that car, i put it toward a down payment on the Boss. Make just as much power with the new mustang as I woulda with a supercharged 4.6 2v.

So anyways...almost needless to say, I am still enjoying the boss upgrade mod as is.

Throwing some boost on the 2V car would have been a waste of money since it still wouldn't even make what your Boss does stock.

Paxton + Boss = 800rw car all day long.

We've got a 13 PW Boss. Its stayed stock for approximately 20 miles which is how many miles it took to get it home. Lol
