Ford Racing M-9424-M50BR - Ford Racing Boss 302R 5.0L Modular Intake Manifolds - Overview - SummitRacing.com

Incase anyone is looking at the BOSS MANIFOLD on sale 319.99

FromG2Z 10-24-2011 11:26 AM

^ Thanks GZ3... can you tell me how much this improves our stock 5.0 setup?

GZ3 10-24-2011 11:38 AM

its mainly intended for the higher RPMS where the stock falls flat....at about 6600 or so the HP gains SKYROCKET! But through tunning they have adjusted and made gains every where..not much, but gains are gains. The loss of tq down low has been addressed through tunning.... but like i said when you hit 6600 or so and with a 7500redline like i have set, its all benefit...i mean the gains are like some in the range of 50-70rwhp!

Its not mustangforums.com for sure.

There is no 'one' forum for info for the Mustang.
This is a good tech forum, they do not tolerate stupid sh*t: WWW.S197FORUM.COM - Powered by vBulletin
Mustangsource/forum/etc. are good for general info on the car or gather ideas for the car.

That site is like the nismo vs sport package debate in every thread.

i'd leave the Boss mani alone for now, i've read about many cases where guys have actually had a slower trap and worse ET after installing one.

Interesting. I haven't heard that at all. Local guy here picked up 3 mph following the Boss install.

The only way I'd see it slowing you down is if there is a leak somewhere.

Red__Zed 10-24-2011 01:38 PM

Or if you're short shifting every gear....

justintime 10-24-2011 07:02 PM

Has anyone been looking at wheels and tires for their 5.0 yet?

m4a1mustang 10-24-2011 07:06 PM

I have looked around a bit. At some point I might get Forgestar F14s with RE11s or Pilot Super Sports. I will probably still be rocking the OEM Brembo wheels next spring, only with Pilot Super Sports in 275/35 replacing the PZeros.

i may not:icon17:


price on the roush went back up...may just wait things out....

I guess I will probably keep the mustang if I stay down here since I won't need the subie...maybe build an s2k for BSP.

FromG2Z 10-24-2011 09:30 PM

He just knows the longer he takes to decide the more I'll get pissed off. Eventually I will buy new FRPP Sports just to shut him up.

m4a1mustang 10-24-2011 09:47 PM

I am really annoyed with my X pipe leak, but I don't want to spend $400 right now on one that fits. I am trying to think of some ways to fix it that aren't expensive. :icon17:

borla ATAK + sell me your setup

m4a1mustang 10-24-2011 09:54 PM

Nah, I was going to but realized the C clamps were rusted pretty badly and I'd likely break the bolts if I tried to loosen them to do a temporary fix with silicon gasket maker, so I need to order some new clamps.

I may just order new clamps and stick the H pipe back on for a change up in the sound, then buy a new X pipe after the winter. I love the way the X sounds, though.

m4a1mustang 10-24-2011 09:58 PM

I can't remember if our mid pipes are 2.5" or 3" diameter.

i wonder how resonator delete would sound with stock mufflers

m4a1mustang 10-24-2011 10:01 PM

Hmmm 2.75"

Would probably sound pretty good I'm sure.

Red__Zed 10-24-2011 10:03 PM

I think I actually prefer the stock tone to the gt500...and definitely like the rolled tip.

wtf happened to roush pricing though? went from like $370 to $500

They finally adjusted the prices to reflect your transition from the 370Z to the 5.00x10^2 :rofl2:

Red__Zed 10-24-2011 10:12 PM

damn, if you wanna keep rocking pzeros this is a pretty solid deal

Mustang OEM Wheel and Tire, for 19-inch Brembo Brake GT (Take Off)

m4a1mustang 10-24-2011 10:14 PM

That is a great deal.

Red__Zed 10-24-2011 10:17 PM

if you can sell your stock rims for anything or need winter rims, hard to argue with.
