That would be a strong all motor car. Better include some tires

Since you have plenty of other fast cars do this:

See how fast you can make it down the 1/4 mile with those mods with a 17 or 18 or 19" drag radial.

What are guys going to for upgraded tires no nittos on 19s i like the factory rims, I found perelli has 305s for a 19s

I just sold my 07GT500 to also order a 2013GT500 and I'm getting very impatient. They are talking about deliveries in august now. I too am picking up a boss this week for a dd until there are 13 Shelby's on the lots. Looks like a nice build, gears seem kind of high for a car with such a high rpm motor,no?

id skip the gears, the boss has a closer ration trans and you would end up shifting all the time. as for tires, i use bridgestone potenza s-04 pole position on the road course and they are fantastic. every thing else sounds good. if you are a fan of drag racing, you should give road racing a try, the Boss 302 is an awesome track car.

I have even doing some reading anyone else do the l&m throttle body?? Worth it?? See any results??

I think you need to get me a job with you haha. Looks like a nice set of mods, I would go with AED tune over Lund on a 5.0 and either SW or dynatech LT's paired with their x-pipe.

 

[redline]

not sure if i would do the gear swap

I would agree with this an also look into the steeda boss only CAI .

 

[Fat Boss]

You've listed a bunch of things that'll make it run hotter but nothing to help cool it off. FOR SURE get the kitty litter scoop, and likely a 302S grill, and possibly a radiator.

 

[Live2Crawl]

Which rad have you guys been upgrading to??

 

[12C/OBoss]

Go with Lund all the way... I have much personal experience. I was the very first Boss with a tune back in April 2011.


...And do a Kenne Bell blower!!! It will be unstoppable! I loved my car with the blower

 

[FoofKiller]

Well, I see the war on drugs is failing... lol.

 

[12C/OBoss]

I have a C and R radiator, custom intercooler with dual spal fans and custom c and r coolant tank for supercharger and rad. Also we installed a saleen grill

 

[me32]

Off hand why would you guys buy boss just to put a blower on it..doesn't that kinda take away what the car was made for?

 

[Live2Crawl]

Does anyone have the Parnelli Jones Airraid CAI??

 

[burnin4]

Does anyone have the Parnelli Jones Airraid CAI??

I do. Looks amazing, bolted it on and had no problems without any tuning. With LT's, catback, and an Airaid I gained 37whp/40tq with no tuning.
