Boss 302 Intake has arrived. Fitment and dyno coming!!!!

[tagle281]

Its like your modern day LX 5.0. It is the base model GT Aka the stripper model...lol.

 

[drewzx3]

Wtf is 300a?

Base gt

 

[KonaGT]

Man my car weighs 3,800 lbs race weight and I don't even have a blower or anything.

 

[Bullett]

Like the cloth seats one?

 

[tagle281]

Yes cloth seats, no shaker radio, rubber steering wheel...etc. Center gauges are fuel and eng. temp only. This car will one day have Corbeaus, and probably get a rear seat delete and boss 302 gauges.

 

[Kingcrabb]

I'll take a 1/10 or 2 for heated leather any day...

 

[tagle281]

It is the base model. The only option I have is 3:73's

I live in South Texas. No need for heated seats...lol.

 

[AndrewG27]

I have the 300A also!!!!!
edit: with the brembos only! wish i would have gotten the 3.73s too though

 

[tagle281]

I should have waited for one with Brembos but my ass is too impatient.

 

[Bullett]

Then I got a 300a too lol. Mine weighed 3450 with me.. Strange

 

[tagle281]

Do you still have ur window sticker? It will say on the option list rapid spec 300a.

Thanks JJ,

What where the final gains with the Boss Intake?

Pretty much none below 5k rpms and some tq loss below 4k but the gains up top were amazing. 42hp at 7000rpms mostly because the stocker was falling off power and it keeps making power. I shift at 7800 and its pulling hard. Its never below 5k in between shifts. Tq gains up top were also good and we have been very happy with how its running.

do you think one can shift that high with a stock shortblock? (7800 rpm). or would it be safer to keep the shift point at 7500?

Both tunes I have had now, both Lund and Bama have had the rev limiter set at 7300. What tuners allow for higher revs? Or is it not safe to run higher without it being a dyno tune?

Unless you have a boss manifold there is no point in revving past 7.
