Exclamation Extra Horsepower

So Im looking at either Dragon Plenum Intake - 4.6L GT - '94-'04 AND / OR Steeda Underdrive Pulleys - 4.6L - 96-04. Any thoughts?? Are the pulleys worth it? Im sure the plenum would be a plus regardless both Im not too savvy when it comes to this stuff and was needing some advice on both. Thanks

Or should I save up a little bit more and buy a BBK Performance 96-04 Mustang GT 78mm Throttle Intake?

go for bbk or accufab 70 or 75 mm t/b then plenum. Not worth it for the pulleys if you go s/c

the BBK 78mm T/B is going to be too large for a lightly modified application

bump...would that that be the best (BBK 70mm) for a stang that isn't really mod'd @ all?

Then... if I did this.... wouldn't be any problems?

its not going to matter so much with a basic bolt on car, if your going to eventually do cams or FI a bigger one would be suggested. 70mm or 75mm will be fine.

Thank you to everyone who has posted above.

Ok so theres really not difference between the 70 & 75.

last question: Goes out to people who have underdrive pulleys.... are the Steeda or BBK Underdrive Pulleys worth adding????

Arrow 70mm or 75mm??

haha I lied I do have some more questions.... I'm trying to learn fast here. So what would be better if I plan on installing a Dragon Plenum Intake in the near future. Should I go with the 70mm or 75mm?
