Install Boss intake manifold on 5.0L

Looking for anyone that has installed the Boss Intake on a 5.0L and whether it made a significant difference in the response.

Thanks for the info. It was very informative and helped me decide that the intake it probably not the direction I want to go. Looks like I need to save my money for a Roush Supercharger.

If you're talking about throttle response, you may want to look into a tuner. The throttle response is artificially limited by the computer.

Mike at 5 star tuning is a site sponsor. I have heard great things about it. Id start there. His tunes seem to be the hot thing for ford trucks.

Contact JDM Engineering:

teamjdm.com

They are one of the premier tuners for Mustangs and F150's with the 5.0. They have years of experience and are very highly regarded in the Mustang performance community. I know they have done 100's of F150's as well. I have their custom tune in my Mustang and would go directly to them if I had the 5.0 in my F150. Give them a call and talk to Jim Jr. He he will answer all you questions and can help you if you only want a new improved performance tune or if you want to go whole hog with a CAI, supercharger and exhaust.

He actually sells a complete tuner, boss intake, cold air kit all together. Also a tuner/cold air kit. Or everything separately. Choice is your really but I have no complaints with the 5star tunes
