One fast 2011 5.0

I found this on youtube, the guy calls it a boss intake but there is no description, but I had to post it. All I can say is wow!

That's the boss intake, they also have a kit with intake, CAI tube and box, and tune. Its a little pricey though.

Or you could save some money and just buy the EcoBoost

I will admit, that 5.0 does sound sexy.

Now that I know the 'Boss' intake is available for the F150 5.0, there is no chance I will ever buy the EcoBoost. I have nothing but good things to say about that little motor, but my personal preference is the 5.0, it has been since it was first introduced. I am going to continue to research and see if I can find out how much more power that intake and tuning adds as well as try and find 1/4 times for it.

Depending on when you bought and where you are located there has been a $500 5.0 rebate. So that pays for the whole kit right there.

I did not know about that. I am very pleased with my 5.0 choice.

It was right when the eb started selling. No longer avaliable. I am also extremely happy with my 5.0. Now I can buy that kit and should be able to beat an eb at the dragstrip.

Key word "should", but more like you will just be able to keep up with an Ecoboost hahahah. Eco's are running mid 14's stock, a simple tune, exhaust and CAI and we will be in the 13's and if that isnt fast enough add methanol injection.
