Eh... I don't see it doing anything different. It looks nice but It wouldn't change anything power related. Honestly, it probably wouldn't change anything sound related either.

People rant about how the stock air box is all you need instead of aftermarket. It sounds like Airaid took notice and said yeah! The stock air box + our new similar plastic hose.

im gonna have about 500 to spend after christmas, trying to maximize spending efficency.

looking at

LCAs
Catch cans for both PCVs
intake
hood struts

most of the money will be in american muscle gift card, getting nice discounts from alex at American Muscle too. cool guy to deal with.

It's designed for the stock GT intake and not the Boss intake

I'm sure it can be made to work, but the fitment won't be ideal

Call or write Airaid and ask if they'll make a Boss specific MIT

Supposedly stock air box not as good on the top end compared to aftermarket.
