Poll: Have you modified your BOSS?

[Boss1601]

May have been similar polls but the thought jumped into my head that I am dead set to keep my BOSS totally stock. It's personal preference and I will suffer at the auto cross. How about everyone else? Where do you fall?

Mine has been...modified a little. See the link in my signature for details.

 

[VoodooBoss]

Mine was modified from stock minutes after I had it home in my garage. I had new wheels installed within the first 24 hours of ownership.

 

[LikeABauce302]

I installed a cold air intake, tune, and exhaust. The car drives so nicely stock, that I have no desire to modify it much more. I learned my lesson from modifying my fox body lol. My fox body is a handful to drive on the street and it's finicky about changes in weather. I bought the Boss because I wanted a reliable cruiser that I can drive anywhere and will start every time I turn the key.

Started upgrades to mine after my first track experience with it. It's personal preference...like it was pointed out. After the suspension and braking were improved....a bit more power was added. Now the whole package suits me fine......both on the track and on the street. It's amazing how well these cars can perform......for just being a heavy pony car !

I have not modified mine, like what they did with this car right from Ford and don't take it to the track.
I joke that the license plate frame that I've added is what I've done to trick it out.

Only changed my wheels and tires to a set from a 2014 GT500. I want to keep the original wheels and tires in perfect condition to show the car in the future in stock condition.

My car was basically stock from Jan 2013 when I bought it to Aug 2013, thats when I attended track attack. Since then its become a track only car with a new suspension, shifter, AED tune, cat deletes, Watson roll bar, PJ CAI, and more that I can't remember right now And of course more to come!

Mine is stock. So is Gary's (Cloud9). :

 

[Propilot]

Just my opinion...A car is only original one time. There will come a time when the original vehicle will be the rare one, not the modified one.

To each his own...

Cooling mods and DOT4 fluid for the track only on the Boss. Trans scoop, brake ducts, 302S grille, dust shields removed from the rears.

Brembo GT/fake Boss is nearly a Boss clone except for the stripes, torsen, clutch, and the engine.
LS struts, LS spoiler, Boss shocks, side pipes, facia, splitter, grille, Boss+925 Setrab oil coolers, trans scoop, brake ducts, P springs, MM plates, GT500 diff cover, GT500 ABs, Roush side splitters, ProCal, intake insulation.

Define "a few" versus "a lot"... ???

Well except for the stickers, but they'll peel right off and no one will ever know

My car has so many mods its almost like it's not a real Boss.
Guess it won't be collectible 30 years from now, when I'm 78.

I've only done a few things and they are all easily reversible. JLT oil separator, sound tube delete, 3/4" exhaust baffles, Boss 302S wheels with Michelin PSS, homemade grill inserts and a Boss 302 sticker under the 3rd brake light.

MUBAR, Modded up beyond all recognition.

Stuff is missing, several holes here and there, so low it scrapes, loud as balls, etc.

I am not one to modify any of my cars but I have removed the baffle plates from all of my Boss cars and I have activated the TracKey on two of my Boss cars and on that same Boss car I have removed the 45 pound 2 piece steel drive shaft from that Boss car and had it replaced with a 15 pound one piece carbon fiber drive shaft.

Obviously this is a much more improved drive train with a 1 piece carbon fiber drive train unit compared to a 2 steel drive train unit along with much improved performance by eliminating 30 pounds of rotating mass.

Acceleration in each gear is much more fluid and improved and would recommend this change to any Boss owner.
