I have an 75mm Accufab T/P and Im happy with it. Many people argue that no brand is better than the other, however, I forget were I seen the article, but a 75mm Accufab T/P netted more HP than the other brands when dyno'd. IDK, your choice, but I love my Accufab. Plus it looks sweet.

I think 75 is to much n/a.. 78 is down right stupid IMO.. your opening up air to much and decreasing intake velocity.

price defference is $425 accufab and bbk $245 both with TB and plenum

From the looks of your name..you look like a converted noodle car owner.. so ill treat you as such...

contrary to popular belief bigger is not better in terms of tb size. you want to match up to what your car has on it. 70mm is recommended by all manufacturers for an n/a car. These are engineer who are smarter than most ppl on the site that recommend 75mm just because the dyno gains are 2-3hp higher. intake air velocity is more important than 3peak hp..

as far as pulleys get steeda and steeda only. most other companies use piggyback pulleys which are a no go.

Accufab is going to be your best bet for looks+performance. I would also look for it used... but if you want new you can also go with trick flow or C&L

When you buy mods for your car piece them together carefully, you will maximize your gains by doing that.
