Default boss intake

so I am thinking about buying a boss intake. I already have a jlt cold air headers bbk shorties and muffles with sct 93 octane tune. will the tune I have support the intake or should I buy the latemodelrestoration set up that comes with a tune? also does anyone know if trickflow or bbk plan on make a intake for the 5.0 anytime soon?

I have boss intake. I personally like it. I make more hp but I didnt gain really any torque from it. I have almost same mods as you

I find it hard to believe no one besides ford has made a intake for the 5.0 engine

MMR makes a bad ass sheet metal intake for the 5.0. I am personally not a fan of the boss intake for a bolt on car.
