2013 Ford F-150 STX
This manifold kit along with the 5-Star Tuning has turned my truck into something to be proud of (other than the fact its a Ford). Installation of this product would be a chore for someone new to motor work. Instructions are pretty straight forward but leave you hanging in a few areas. For example, the purge valve needs to be modified in placement (Boss purge valve can be purchased through your dealership). Without it you'll trip an engine light. That being said, if you arn't confident in doing the work yourself, this kit is still completely worth installation costs from a shop. It only took a few hours to take the old off and install the whole new kit and upload the tunes... The end product is insane. It's like driving a whole new truck, and a stupid fast one at that. Also, my Roush exhaust is louder and my MPG's have gone up... In a nut shell, if you like horsepower, burning tires and/or want something different, this is for you. The guys that work at a local Ford dealership freaked out when they saw this kit under the hood.

It truly is unbelievable how much this upgrade did to my truck. I went full-boar and added the 85mm TB from BBK into the mix and WOW! Coupled with the SCT tunes, my truck performs incredibly. I'm also noticing less fuel consumption at 70 and 75mph because the truck can breath so much better. If you can front the money, this is a worth upgrade for anyone wanting a bad-ass truck that's still naturally aspirated.

Had this boss kit installed on my 2014 f150 5.0 and was initially very pleased with the performance gains. However... Took it to local performance shop several months after installing to see whp and wtq.. Comparing my truck with (cat back) exhaust, poweraid throttle body spacer, boss kit with a 93 oct tune; and a 2011 5.0, with just a cai and tune, produced 34 more horsepower than my f150 with the boss manifold kit. Very disappointed to see these results especially after sinking $1200 into this. If you plan on supercharging with the boss kit, then this would be the only reason I would purchase again. All the NA gains mostly have to do with tuning.

This is a kick ass up grade for your 302 F150!! If you are going to do this go full bore for the best performance. Get the Boss 302 kit,BBK 85mm tb,NKG plugs,93 race tune/s, match up with 1 3/4 Stainless Works long tube headers/cats, cat back 3 Monster single exhaust. I don't recommend going catless you cant turn off rear O2s (per 5star tuning) as in older trucks ie(2006 f150) Ck engine light will stay on and as I found out remote start wont work! So I put the cats back on. This is a weekend job+...instructions and Youtube will help a lot if you get stuck. Save most of Beer till yer finished... Yes the cowl will have to beaten up (but to far up wiper linkage will drag) to make intake drop in place super tight fit going in. PUT headers on first!! Cuz ya have to jack engine up and there isn't clearance with Boss intake on fellas. Down load your tunes and hear that 302 roar!! Ohh yeah turn traction control off for bit... she's going to be shifting hard at 7,000!! Now you sound like built Mustang..not a P/U Truck and not like other trucks either. Keeps the push rod guys wondering what's under the hood. I have had this set up on for over 9 months 7000+ mi been to FL and back to OH average mi 15.1 loaded. Pulled a large boat several hundred too. I have had absolutely ZERO problems and highly recommend. Stage 3 rocks !!

It's a nice product don't get me wrong but the gen 1 coyote in the F150 has 360hp stock. Don't pay $1000+ to lose hp. Please do research before you spend money, especially on hp.

Customer Question Hi team, i have a 2011 f150 V8 5.0 with cat back and headers along with y pipe, all that i need now is this manifold and intake also a throttle 90mm body with spacer, I haven't tuned my car yet so can you tune it for me (the cat back, headers, y pipe) and the parts i mentioned before, can u give me an email to give u the information you need in order to tune, I'm not in the us. Thanks

Asked by: Abdullah - 4/3/2020
Customer Answer If you don't have a tuning device yet, you're better bet would be the 5-Star Boss 302 Manifold with SCT X4. That kit comes with a tuning device, and 5-Star can tune for long tuber headers and aftermarket Y-pipes without issues. The only information we'll need is what octane rating you'll need, since we use (R+m)/2, while most places overseas use RON. Use our International Shipping form to start your order, and one of our sales reps will get in touch wit you.

Customer Question Hello I was wondering which is the best 5 star tune for this manifold setup? My truck runs 87 octane. I would like more horsepower and better fuel economy. Which yes I know you can’t have both.

Asked by: Sam - 8/16/2018
Customer Answer You get a choice of two tunes, but if you're solely going to use 87 octane, then you really only have a the 87 octane Performance/Tow tune and the 87 octane Economy tune. The 87 octane Performance/Tow tune will give you the best fuel economy in highway and rural driving, while the Economy tune will provide you better fuel economy during city driving, though it's at the cost of drivability. Both tunes will give you more power over stock, though the Performance/Tow tune is the more powerful of the two.

Customer Question I already have a 92 tune and a air intake can I just get the intake or do I need anything else to install it?

Asked by: brad - 1/14/2018
Customer Answer This manifold requires a custom intake system and a specific custom tune for proper operation. It's very likely that your current cold air intake and tuning will not work with the Boss 302 manifold. Your best bet would be to call us directly at 623-434-5277 so we can get more specific about what you have and what you'll likely still need.

Customer Question I know you can this kit with the 85mm throttle body but can you get it the 90mm throttle body and if so how much of a difference does it make in comparison to the 85mm?

Asked by: Zachary O - 1/4/2018
Customer Answer A BBK 90mm throttle body can be used with this kit. The 90mm throttle body is much more responsive than the 85mm, and generally sees slightly higher peak horsepower at the expense of flattening out your torque curve a bit. The other issue with the 90mm is that it does have very "on/off" throttle response which is tough to totally tune out. Still, a BBK 90mm throttle body will fit with this kit, and 5-Star can tune for it. Just make sure you list the BBK 90mm throttle body on your tune sheet when you're ready to commit.

Customer Question I have a stage 2 afe dry intake along with a airaid throttle body spacer and I am already a part of the 5 star tuning program. I know there may be some mods needed to be done to the intake to make it work but I am curious if with throttle body spacer it will work also? I am looking to order just manifold and have my free tune. Curious what the price would be for just that. Thank you for the help.

Asked by: Steven - 12/6/2016
Customer Answer Your current intake will not work properly with the Boss 302 manifold, and a heavily customized aFe intake will be needed for installation. Your throttle body spacer should still work with the manifold, though what benefit it will provide will likely be minimal. For pricing of just the manifold and the intake, give us a call directly at 623-434-5277.

Asked by: Paul - 9/5/2016
Customer Answer The BBK 85mm throttle body will fit onto the Boss Intake Manifold, however, your Roush Intake WILL NOT fit with the Boss Manifold, since the Boss 302 manifold requires a custom intake system for fitment in the F150s, which is provided as part of this package.

I was also wondering if the 2 custom tunes in that come with this package, will I need a tuner as well, and can I combine the Ford Gas Vehicle Edge Evolution CTS2 Tuner & Vehicle Monitor to a package deal with the 85mm throttle body?

Asked by: Michael Embrey - 6/29/2016
Customer Answer The Edge CTS2 does not support custom tuning. You would need an SCT device in order to use the custom tunes included in this kit. 5-Star also offers a Boss Manifold Package with an X4 tuning device and a Boss Manifold Package with a Livewire tuning device. If you're looking for a package deal with a BBK 85mm throttle body, your best bet would be to call us directly at 1-877-578-2433.

Customer Question Other than the 5-star tunes and the modified AFE intake. Is that a regular boss 302 manifold or is there some special tubing included to fit in F-150 applications. So if I just bought a boss 302 manifold directly from a mustang, would I need anything else to fit it into my truck?

Asked by: Hamed - 5/24/2016
Customer Answer The aFe intake included in this kit isn't a standard aF3 F150 5.0L intake. It's one that's been customized by 5-Star to fit with the Boss 302 Manifold. You will absolutely need customized inlet tubing that also preserves the vacuum and PCV ports for use with a Boss 302 manifold on a 2011-2014 F150 5.0L.

Customer Question My question does not exactly pertain to the boss manifold but have you guys experimented with the cobra jet manifold on a f150 at all? They are more money but are supposed to provide more torque over the boss manifold when fitted on a mustang. Would your possibly know if there around the same size and fit in the f150 5.0l engine bay?

Asked by: Jesse - 4/16/2016
Customer Answer It has been done by a few folks. 5-Star even has Cobra Jet Kits for the 2015-2016 F150s, though I'm not certain if they're going to to a version for the 2011-2014 F150s as of yet. That being said, 5-Star's kits use a throttle body adpater to fit the stock throttle body, which limits overall gains. The only way I personally see a Cobra Jet Manifold being worth it is if the manifold is paired up with a Cobra Jet Throttle Body and an oversized custom intake and then dyno-tuned. To me, that's a lot of hassle for a questionable difference in gains, but some folks do want to squeeze every last horsepower and lb-ft of torque out of their motors. That all being said, it is possible to drop one into the 5.0L F150s, and I believe overall installation is similar to the Boss 302 manifolds.

Asked by: Jeremy Linkie - 4/6/2016

Your best bet would be to call us directly at 1-877-578-2433, since you do qualify for our Lifetime Tunes Program if you purchase the manifold from us, and so we can get the necessary information we need to get your current tunes revised.

Asked by: Steven - 3/25/2016
Customer Answer The Boss Manifold reuses the stock fuel rails and injectors. The part that you might want to consider getting separately is a Boss 302 purge valve from your local Ford dealer, though 5-Star's instructions do include instructions for modifying your stock purge valve to work with the Boss manifold.

Asked by: sonny - 3/11/2016
Customer Answer You will need an SCT tuning device for this system, and the two tunes will be emailed to you once we receive the information we need about your truck. If you need a tuning device, then we suggest getting either the Boss Manifold and SCT X4 Package or the Boss Manifold and SCT Livewire Package. As for which tunes you should get, that's really up to you. Frankly, I'd suggest getting a Performance/Tow and Performance tune in the highest widely-available fuel octane for your area.

Customer Question Is it recommended to buy a bigger throttle body for this kit or will I be okay with the stock one ? Also do you guys ship to Canada?

Asked by: Tyler - 2/28/2016
Customer Answer It really depends on how far you want to take the truck and whether or not you're going to add a centrifugal supercharger or a custom turbo kit down the road. Technically, a larger throttle body is not strictly required, though jumping up to a BK 85mm throttle body can help improve gains and responsiveness further than just the manifold, intake and tuning alone, and can set you up for improved gains from a supercharger or turbocharger down the road. We do ship to Canada, though you will need to call us directly at 1-877-578-2433 for a quote.

Customer Question Do I need an install kit or is it a direct bolt on into factory location, and how much for just the boss manifold? Thanks

Asked by: Andrew - 2/19/2016
Customer Answer An intake kit is not required, and the Boss Manifold features a pretty straightforward install. The only things that keep it from being a true bolt-on upgrade is that you need to roll your firewall for clearance and your truck's purge valve will need modifications to fit properly on the manifold. While we can sell the manifold on its own, we don't recommend it, due to the fact that you need a custom intake system, as well as custom tuning to get the kit to function properly. Call us directly at 1-877-578-2433 if you just want to order a manifold.

Customer Question i was wondering if you offer a package that includes the boss 302 manifold and a pro charger kit all in one?

Asked by: leroy - 12/26/2015
Customer Answer We do not, as we can't offer custom tuning for the combination. However, if you give us a call directly at 1-877-578-2433, we'd be more than happy to put a package together of everything you need, except tuning.

Customer Question Does the 87 octane economy tune perform the same with a e10 87 octane fuel in a flex fuel engine?

Asked by: los - 10/1/2015
Customer Answer These will be some performance degradation from 10% ethanol blends, but it won't be huge, and you won't hurt engine.

Customer Question Would any aftermarket cold intake fit the boss 302 intake manifold or does it have to be modified?

Asked by: Mike - 9/29/2015
Customer Answer Any intake will need to be modified to fit the Boss manifold. The aFe kit arguably needs the fewest modifications and is a bit easier to work with since its inlet tubing is aluminum instead of plastic.

Customer Question I have a 2013 F-150 with the 5.0 flex fuel engine my question is with this intake does this mean I have to run conventional fuel without the Ethanol?

Asked by: Los - 9/27/2015
Customer Answer 5-Star's tuning can handle conventional 10% ethanol blends, but if you run E85 or E30 blends, then you would need custom tuning specifically for that, which 5-Star can provide. Call us directly at 1-877-578-2433 if you do want custom tuning for E85 or E30.

Asked by: Shawn - 9/8/2015
Customer Answer This kit will fit 2011 to 2014 F150s with a 5.0L V8. As long as your truck has a 5.0L V8, the kit will fit. If you don't have a tuning device, your best bet would be to call us directly at 1-877-578-2433 so we can put a custom package together.

Customer Answer It kind of depends on what you're doing with your truck and what your future build plans are, but the manifold can fit the factory throttle body, BBK's 85mm and 90mm throttle bodies, and Ford Racing's 90mm throttle body.

Customer Question Hey guys, first off, I apologize for all the questions I've been sending your way recently. Just wanna make sure I get the right mods for my truck. My question is, I'm planning on either getting this kit (minus the custom tuning since I already have your custom 5 star tunes for life), and the 85mm throttle body for my truck, or getting the stainless works long tubes with catless midpipe. Unfortunately, I can't get both right at the moment. Which of the two options would present me the biggest hp/torque gains? I currently have Flowmaster super 10 cat back exhaust, and the 5 star custom tunes for life. Thank you in advance!

Asked by: Ross - 7/22/2015
Customer Answer Well, the issue is you'll see more peak horsepower from the Boss Manifold Package, however, you'll get more low-end torque out of the long tube header systems. Depending on what you're planning on doing with your truck, it's pretty much a toss-up. If you're towing, off-roading, or doing anything that benefits from a lot of low-end torque, then choose the headers. If you're highway driving, racing, dune running, or anything else that needs high-end horsepower, then the Boss Manifold Package is probably your better bet. Honestly, you should give us a call directly at 1-877-578-2433 so we can get more specific about the pros and cons of each.

Customer Question I already have an edge tuner in my truck would that sufficient enough ?

Asked by: Chad - 6/16/2015
Customer Answer No, it won't, as the Edge CS/CTS/CTS2 series of tuners do not support custom tuning. A custom tune is required for this system, and you'll require an SCT device or a tune on a chassis dyno.

Customer Question I have a 2011 F150 Platinum with a 5.0. I have SVT program in my truck know. I have the opportunity to make a few changes to my daily driver. I purchased an aircleaner from you the day before yesterday and would like your input on a couple things before I put it together. What kind of HP & torque guess would I be looking at? Guess what kind of milage would I be sitting in City: how about highway? WITH: My new air cleaner, Put your BOSS intake on, update my program in my handheld. (Should I) put your headers on, put on your mass air senser. Please give me some input and your edujcated guidance.

Asked by: Jeffrey Ellingson - 6/2/2015
Customer Answer All gains are going to depend on which tune you're running and what fuel octane you're using. I've heard of gains of up to 45 peak horsepower and 30lb-ft of torque at the tires when using 91 octane fuel. In general, and assuming no change in driving style once the manifold/intake/tuning is installed, you theoretically should see a slight gain in fuel economy. However, most folks tend to drive more aggressive after this kit is installed, which causes a net loss in fuel economy. Now, this kit comes with its own intake system, and you won't be able to use the kit that you already have. Headers will improve overall gains pretty significantly, but a new MAF sensor is not required.

Asked by: craig - 3/13/2015
Customer Answer The kit comes standard with two 5-Star custom tunes, but no tuner, on the assumption that this package is a "down-the-road" modification for someone that already has a tuner. A tuner can be added to the package, however. Additional tune can be added at the cost of $10 a piece, however, we don't recommend running 5-Star's economy tunes with this package as their drivability with the Boss 302 manifold is not ideal. To order extra tunes with this kit, give us a call directly at 1-877-578-2433 to place a custom order.

Customer Question Will this system work with a Roush Cold air intake? is there any other modifications I need to make besides extending one of the hoses shown in your video?

Asked by: Alex - 1/11/2015
Customer Answer Unfortunately, it won't. The issues is that the factory inlet tubing can't meet up with the throttle body on the BOSS Manifold. Your best bet would be to see if you could sell your Roush intake, and then pick up this complete kit.

Customer Question Hello team, I was wondering on the possibility of shipping the boss intake product with the 5 star tunes alone. Is the AFE CAI in the picture the same as (part no AFE-54-11962-1B) as this is the one I have on my F150? Thanks in advance.

Asked by: Abdulrahman - 12/4/2014
Customer Answer The problem is that the intake included in this kit is not the same as the one you already have. The aFe intake included in this package is modified and customized pretty significantly for use with the BOSS Manifold while still being able to fit in the MAF sensor, vacuum lines, and PCV. You may be able to modify your current intake for proper fitment, but it's not exactly an easy or simple process.

Asked by: Joselgarcia - 11/28/2014

Asked by: Harvey - 10/20/2014
Customer Answer According to 5-Star, there's provisions for the purge valve and sensor on the manifold that you just plug right in. You do have to do some minor rerouting of one of the purge valve's hoses to get it to the nipple on the manifold, but it's not overly difficult.

Customer Answer Here's the problem you're going to have: that Airaid intake that you bought will not fit with the Boss 302 manifold.

Asked by: David - 9/17/2014
Customer Answer Technically speaking, all warranty decisions are up to the dealer, but in general, this kit will be a de facto void of your warranty, due to the fact that you'll not only be swapping out your intake manifold and exposing your intake valves, but because of the custom tuning needed for the proper function of the Boss 302R manifold. We also aren't able to offer our aftermarket warranty on Boss manifolds at this time.
