This debate will go on for years. It's all preference with the Boss vs. Stock. Some love it and some hate it. IMO, it wasn't worth the torque loss, so I went back with the stock intake. If you run the Boss, you'll see your big gains at 7700-7800 RPM's which is where it really shines. I couldn't bear the thought of spinning my motor that high just for an intake. But, a lot of guys don't mind...like Brent Yager.

Ditto. This is a Mustang not a Honda. The boss was designed for high-revs and has the "hardware" to support it. Lol.

We just tuned a BOSS intake to a 5.0 (no headers) car yesterday. Picked up 7hp & lost 15tq. We're moving forward with porting the Intake to measure gains today.

How about throught the curve?

My car with the Boss IM and no headers at the time netted me 13 HP and lost 22 FT LBS

I agree with you. Spinning a stock valve train like that for extended periods is just asking for trouble.
