JLT CAI meets the BOSS and it fits

[Tucker]

We got ahold of a BOSS manifold for test fitting of our CAI.

Many people have reported it fits, it doesn't, it will if you do this... and so on, so we wanted to see for ourself.

Well, it fits as is, but may benifit from a silicone hump coupler for a perfect fit.

Using the coupler that comes with the kit we pushed it on the TB as far as it would go, going a little past the back stop on the top side.

The clamp fits just fine and grabs the TB lip.

Then on the tube side we push it in fully, adjust the tube so the filter is at it normal position and tighten the clamp.

It has enough room for the entire clamp to be on the silicone and behing the lip on the tube.

Actually very simple install, but I will be looking for something even better.

I will be overnighting a hump hose to see if it works better and if so, will offer it to our customers.


Just thought I'd pass on this bit of info seeing as how so many are buying the BOSS manifold and are wanting to know what will fit.

Thanks
Jay

Off topic, but 127mm GT500 kit is ready to be released. With Bradenton next week we may not have the time to get it on the web site.
Call me if you want one

BTW, thanks for all the comments!

Someone on another forum asked about fitment of the JLT Oil Separators.

Yup, with a little twist of the hoses they fit like a glove!

Thanks

Jay, now we need to see a package cost for the Boss intake, CAI, and tuner/tunes.

A package that also includes a strut tower brace that fits would be gravy.

Sorry, we don't sell the BOSS manifolds

Hi Tucker, Just wondering, for the 5.0 with FRPP blower, will the GT500 catch can works on this combo?

 

[Tucker]

No, you would need to get a base kit and then plumb it yourself. Many have done it.

JLT meets Boss intake and Nitrous Outlet plate and fits!

And the JLT oil seperator looks pretty sweet too!

 

[Tucker]

OK, we did a full install today and have confirmed that a 3.5" ID X 3" long coupler makes fit perfect!

Now, it fits with the 2" coupler in the kit as many have shown, but the 3" fits even better.

We have some on order and will be offering them for sale, but you can also get them from Racepartsolutions.com



Thanks

Jay

That PCV splice looks like crap.

Nice post dude.:bored:

I installed the Boss intake last week JLT Cai and Oil catch can fit perfect.

Nice post dude.:bored:

If you are going to keep the stock connections, why splice it? That kind of defeats the purpose of the locking connector doesn't it? :bored:

I don't undertand your post at all, but that's beside the point. Your first post was rude and not needed.
No need to hit the keys to respond here either, just move on
Thanks

It wasn't directed at you in the first place, but you responded. What I was referring to is the splice into the stock pcv valve tubing that goes from the valve cover into the intake tube in this picture below....
