4.02 -> Jake here for American Trucks, and today  I'm taking a look at the Ford Boss 302  
8.16 -> Intake Manifold fitting 2011 to 2017 5-liter  F-150s. If you're looking to make more power  
14.28 -> out of your Coyote-powered F-150, then  this is an easy way to make it happen.  
17.64 -> It's an easy and affordable mod that's going  to bolt right onto your stock engine block,  
21.3 -> and it's going to make a pretty big  difference in the way your truck performs.
26.58 -> Mustang owners have been using this trick  since the Boss 302 was first introduced back  
30.9 -> in 2012. Now, the Boss's intake manifold  features a larger plenum, longer runners,  
35.7 -> and slightly different routing, but it bolts  directly onto the top of any 5-liter Coyote  
40.26 -> V8 because it's a Ford factory part. It's like  doing a cold air intake, but this is going to  
45.36 -> make an even bigger difference over stock when it  comes to airflow. Better airflow means more power,  
50.22 -> and really, who doesn't like that? Now, we're  not going to be throwing the truck on our dyno,  
54.12 -> but we've heard claims of up to  40 more horsepower over stock,  
57.42 -> which makes sense. The Boss 302 made about 444  horsepower versus the stock Mustang 500's 400,  
64.32 -> so you can kind of extrapolate from there,  but remember, your results may vary.
68.22 -> This is also going to bring you more torque  and a slightly different power curve,  
71.94 -> so it makes more power higher up in the rev range  because of the way this is designed. As opposed to  
77.04 -> your stock intake manifold, which collects the air  down on the bottom, and then loops it up through  
81.6 -> the runners and down into the heads, this is  going to collect everything at the large box here  
86.16 -> at the top. It's going to get pulled down to the  individual cylinders through these longer runners  
90.96 -> on the side. The longer runners and that more  natural flow of air means higher air velocity,  
95.76 -> better flow, and again, that means more power.  It really lends itself well to the Coyote V8's  
100.86 -> high-strung, rev-happy nature. You're going  to find yourself matting the throttle all of  
105.24 -> the time because you're just going to want to  hear it and enjoy the sound and extra power.
108.78 -> Now, it is worth noting here that while this does  bolt right onto the engine, you are going to have  
113.52 -> to do a few other things to get this setup fully  functional. For example, you are going to need an  
118.14 -> aftermarket intake. You're also going to need  a MAP sensor extension. The intake is because,  
123 -> again, your stock one routes down here as  opposed to up top like this one does. You're  
128.88 -> going to have to finagle that a little bit.  However, these are minor things. Let's face it,  
132.84 -> if you're shopping for this intake manifold,  you've probably already got yourself a cold  
136.92 -> air intake. Now, if you don't, just throw it  in the cart, grab that while you're at it.
142.2 -> Much like your stock manifold, this is made from a  high-strength, heat-resistant composite material.  
147.54 -> It's going to hold up just like your factory  unit, again, because it is a factory Ford part.  
152.1 -> It also includes new intake gaskets here for the  throttle body, and for the manifold itself down on  
157.8 -> the bottom. Everything is just as good of quality  as you'd expect from an OEM part. Plus, you've got  
163.5 -> this cool Boss 302 logo and the streaks up top  to make a nice impression when you pop the hood.
171.12 -> One thing you might not be expecting though is  that this doesn't actually carry a huge price  
175.26 -> tag. Coming in at about $325, this is a pretty  affordable modification for a more specialty part,  
181.14 -> especially considering the benefits that  you're going to get out of it. However,  
184.26 -> like I mentioned earlier, this is going  to require you to do a few other things  
187.74 -> to get the setup working properly.  Nothing too over the top though.
192.78 -> Speaking of that installation process,  we're going to give it a two out of three  
196.14 -> on our difficulty meter, and it should take you  around two hours to get the job completed. Now,  
200.46 -> like I mentioned, the manifold itself is  going to bolt right into place on top of  
204 -> your engine. You've even got the bolts already  in it ready to go. However, you are going to  
208.02 -> have to get a few additional pieces moving on  the truck to have everything fully functional.
211.74 -> That's going to wrap it up here for  our review of the Boss 302 Intake  
215.34 -> Manifold fitting 2011 to 2017 5-liter F-150s.  Thanks so much for watching. And as always,  
222 -> for all things F-150, be sure to keep  it right here at americantrucks.com.
