Boss Intake - Dyno & Track results
- Thread starter SCalla1384

Like said though, to use it effectively, you need the right gearing, and can't be afraid to shift it high.
It would be similar to putting 3.08's and shifting at 6200 on a stock intake.

Just like it was said its moving the power band higher. I personally had good experiences with the boss manifold. But to each there own.
which is exactly why its cams and full boltons for me. minus intake manifold. i want all of the torque. i can sacrifice 20hp for 20 lb-ft.
been 11.64 119
stock manifold (for life or until i get cams)
revolution dyno tune
jlt carbon
big and littles
3.31 car

^ track?
And yes, stock intake and 3.31's is a much better combo then 3.31's and boss intake. I'm not saying the stock intake isn't good.. Didn't Casper/JPC do 10.7 @ 124mph on it?
Like EJR said, it's not rocket science. You gain ~20rwhp and move the powerband up. If your not shifting at the right spot or the right gears, obviously it's not going to do a great job.
As far as tq #'s there overrated in these cars. The gearing in the trans is keeping you at 5500+ rpm every shift. Which is where the boss shines over the stock intake. Especially if your on slicks launching at 6000+ rpm, then what does the torque loss mean? Nothing!
The only time you'd notice it, is around town lugging in 4th gear. So the low end loss really has no affect, I don't miss it because I haven't felt a difference.

cecil with terrible prep 1.69 60' was the best of the day
Yeah, whatever you run at Cecil, add 2 tenths to it, and drop 2mph 
lmao here we go D/A dont lie and obviously track prep wasent great ..... cecil is only faster in the winter when are D/A drops bellow -2000
Any track at -2000' is fast. Cecil is downhill at a slight angle.
Cecil ruins all timeslips lol.
iv gone within a hundredth of a second within that at mir and CRAPITOL
Lol seriously...
Depends on DA difference to. Cecil is if not the fastest, one of the fastest tracks in the country. Low sea level, slightly downhill, and from what people have said, jack Cecil preps the shit out of that track.
Aren't most of the NHRA records held at Cecil? It isn't coinsidence...
And the people knocking the boss intake without ever driving with one, shouldn't comment. Just because they see dyno sheets they think it sucks. Or track times on set ups that aren't good for the intake (like mine) But, it's still more fun then the stock intake. Can't wait to put 3.73's in
I have 4.10's with my Boss Intake/Dyno Tune going on next. I'm pretty stoked!
problem is >with the 7600+ rpm shifts the mt-82 is going to break! been there done that 4 times!
LOL
Yeah, those northern guys get real bitchy when it's their time of the month. Doesn't help that they don't fully comprehend statements before responding with their girly insults.
No one is getting bitchy about anything, your test had no value or weight to the boss intake manifold discussion.
Don't get your panties in a knot, I'll post up results on Thurs. after I get my re-tune done. You girls seem a bit sensitive. :banana:
