So from begining dyno charts i have seen 30/30 gains across the board from the CJ intake swap on the boss 302. People are just starting to get them in their hands and trying to get them onto their cars. Would anyone be interested on a full 4 inch tubing cold air intake set up for this swap? Thinking about making one but i dont want to waste my time if no one has any interest.
Cobra Jet Intake manifold CAI Set up interest??
- Thread starter Bloodykisses
- Start date
Well, in short. People are putting cobra jet drag manifolds on in place of the Boss 302 manifold. They have shown some serious increase in power and torque across the board. The few that have their manifolds already are having trouble getting a cold air intake system for it.
Thanks, you learn something new everyday.
Does the stock intake fit?
No it does not, a custom cold air kit is required for the Cobra Jet manifold.
I am definitely interested! Been monitoring AmericanMuscle's website for the last few months for an update, but nothing yet.
I'd like to see one on a Paxton car.
I got tired of waiting for someone to make the CAI tube to fit the Cobra Jet Intake. The issue is, the Cobra Jet uses the GT500's throttle body. Because the GT500's TB is mounted in the rear of the supercharger, the CAI tube won't work. What is needed is a CAI tube that fits the dual 65mm TB or Mono-blade TB and the CAI tube, box and filter all rest in the Boss 302 intakes location.
(Only have a GT) I got tired of waiting for a mere 40hp for nearly $3000 and ordered a Kenne Belle 2.8.

Its not difficult for me to make it. Its a pricey set up for sure. There are those guys though especially road racers that want that extra power (20-40/trq) without going to FI or camming the cars. Especially with what it shows for power and trq increase down low, it seems worth it. But, once you start getting into it manifold 800$, maf 700$, TB $550, then my intake which will be carbon fiber most likely, its a pricey swap for sure.
My idea was to sell the whole thing as a bolt in it. Or everything minus manifold. You just specify if you want a 123 or 140 maf.
Bloodykisses - Count me in! keep me posted on this by pm if you wish
Hmmm.... Intriguing.... I have the intake mani already and the tb... I have a 13 boss.... How would I verify ur skills before I allow u to begin.... I'm beyond a perfectionist... Text me and we'll chat... 401-486-6831

Did a little digging around the available PDF's and found that Ford will be releasing a CAI through Ford Racing to support the new intake manifold. Here are the details. Hope this isnt old information.

When it says "calibration is required", does that mean a tune? or is that something you have to have completed from Ford?
Custom tune.
Intake is also recalled for another 2 months anyway.
Shipping pushed back to late May on AmericanMuscle.com.

Revisiting this old thread since the re-release of the CJ intake is near.
How is the intake for it coming along? When is it available?
