damn Dragon02GT thanks alot man. i had no idea it had twin bores on the throttle body. that means i dont need to replace the plenum?
Your intake does not use a plenum like mine does. The plenum is part of the intake itself. The plenum on your car is the part from the Throttle body (TB) to the back of the intake where the air goes in. Check it out for yourself. Look at where your air filter is at, follow that back to the TB, (the TB has a cable on it you can pull to rev the motor), right after the TB your intake starts and is all one piece. The part right after the TB isthe intake track or plenum and the air flows fromt he TB straight to the back of the intake. You can follow th track yourself and see how the air flows. On our GT's the air goe in fromt he top, not the back, so the plenum is the elbow that turns the air 90* to sen it in a the top of the intake. You do not have this, this is also why your intake is better than the GT intake.

Hey no problem bud, that's why we are all here to help each other out. By the way, nice car, I had the chance to buy a Bullit right after I bought my GT. I was very upset, it has less mile and was the same price. Man was I pissed, right afetr I paid 14g's for a car, a better one came along and I already had mine. Oh well. Hey if you get the TB and need help putiing it in just pm me.

same thing goes for 96-98 cobra... not too sure about the new edge cobras.... drag i am right about this correct?

since i have one... the twin bore TB seems to be the only thing to replace, since it goes directly to the manifold instead of a plenum... course no need to replace that thing and go bigger unless im SC cuz its a waste of $$$ for me anyways.. things are like 375... F that


and i think ur good on ur TB, i think it holds its own so u should be good... spend that $$$ on something else
