Who calls an intake manifold a "head" ? LOL

Anyways, did 5 Star ever post up part throttle dyno graphs? They are a deal buster for me.

 

You can say good buy to the 500 miles on a tank of fuel.

 

I have not run out a tank of gas all the way yet, but I did average close to 19 mpg on a 200 mile road trip each way averaging 80 mph this past weekend.

 

how much was the boss intake?

Not cheap that's for sure

5 Star

 

About 50 cheaper at Jegs.

You can get just the intake from many sources for around 500. I went with the package deal from 5 Star with a SCT, tunes and CAI.

 

I hope you don't have any warranty service issues.

 

I installed the 93 octane tune, this thing runs like a beast! I reminds me of driving my 03 Lightning that I had, minus the blower whine! I am most impress at how hard it pulls!

 

Muddoag, that's great news! What a great setup/package, I'd be hard pressed to own a 5.0 and NOT do this, seems like a natural thing to do if you are a gear head (like me)

Take a quick vid for us, both inside and out. Love hearing those coyote's howling away!

 

Looks like a heck of a setup for a sport truck. I would be interested to see how it works towing. The 5 star dyno shows absolutely nothing below about 2300 rpm. So without some serious gears, I am afraid it would be a dog for towing.
