Default Questionn

I am looking to buy a new throttle body for my 07 GT, I have the JLT CAI off of American muscle (http://www.americanmuscle.com/jlt-sct-0509gt-kit.html) If that matters. Is there a certain size throttle body I need so it will fit properly?

I guess my question is, why? The stock TB is more than adequate. Unless you plan to do some future internal mods that will allow the engine to make use of the additional air flow or go FI, you won't see any gains.

I personally wouldn't bother. I've heard more cons than pros about aftermarket TBs. Put that $$ towards gears

+1 on the post above! From all the threads I've read, I wouldn't bother either.
