Personally, I plan to order a 2013 or 2014 GT + Track Pack and Recaros to compliment my '12 Boss

So far, I've seen only one CAI for 2013 Boss 302, Airaid #453-174. Larger carbon fiber intake tube, huge dry filter, and dyno'd 19 HP, 20 fp torque increase. No tune required. Runs really strong at high rpm, 6000-7500 rpm. $630.00 So far, I haven't seen a tune that works, with trackey. Three friends tried tunes, but had to uninstall, and pay $600.00 to reinstall trackey program.

So you are saying that Intake is worth 19hp and 20#ft of torque with no tune? I'd sure love to see the dyno sheets on that.

Same here. But from a real everyday Boss owner, not Airaid.

No, but you'll pick up more dates with the LONGER blade

From an owner of this product on a '12 Boss that did have it dynoed please reread their statement or search this forum for previous posts. Great looking product, still on my car. The key word here is "peak". There is an increase mid range but not peak. Very touchy subject. Love the look but no peak gains. I'd hate to see someone else get this for any other reason but looks and some mid range improvement. It definitely is a conversation piece when the hood is up.

I remember reading something about a Boss with the tk installed and the stock airbox is pretty much optimized!! Adding a CAI wouldn't make much if any of an improvement over what the Ford engineers already did?

Ya me too, I plan on buying a 13 Shelby to compliment my Boss, heck while were at it might as well buy a Limited F150 Ecoboost. And another house to compliment the one I already have.

Kidding aside, who has money like that for a? 45,000Boss and a year and half later has enough to buy another Mustang @40k?

Yeah, if I'm gonna buy another Mustang to compliment my Boss, it's going to be a 2011 base GT with an auto, in a couple of years when the prices have dropped on them to sub-$15k levels.
