Default Thanks silvr stang for your input

Some how everyone got off of what I was askin to sumone else. I will go with a 75mm throttle body for my saleen twin screw series IV supercharger. I think it will make a big difference in what the car is doing now in horsepower.

Thanks Silvrstang for your help.

What kind of horsepower gain do you think I should gain bolting on a 75mm throttle body onto the arm of a saleen supercharger series IV?

Thank You all you mustang enthusiasts. I bolted on a bbk 75mm to mu saleen supercharger series IV (twin screw) and it was the biggest bang for my buck bolt on I have done. I can get the car ti peel out all the way thru first gear reaving the engine up to 2000 rpms and releasing the clutch and get it to peel out at the beginning of second gear and the grab and take off. Biggest bang for my buck bolt on ever. It was noticeable right off the start after the install.

close to 30 horsepower gain using the 75mm throttle body on a twin screw supercharger. If ur doing a cintrifegual supercharger make sure u get the 75mm with the plenum upgrade. This is the first bolt on that I have put on this car that u can feel a difference. It is worth every bang for your buck trust me. Been at this for 15 years betwen camaro's and mustangs and its worth the money. I have a 2003 mustang GT with a saleen series IV supercharger with intercooler SLP loudmouth I catback exhaust, 30Lb fuel injectors, PCM programmed to saleen specs. by saleen, cold air intack with 30Lb maf sensor program and thats it and out of all this the throttle body at 75mm was the biggest impact for my dollars.

Go with a 75mm if you are running a twin screw supercharger the hole opening on the arm of the supercharger on a twin screw is big enough for a 80mm but I didn't want overkill so I went with 75mm throttle body and it was an impact on the car.
