Default Which is better?

Hey I was wondering what would I see more gains from, an Accufab 75mm throttle body and plenum or getting rid of my hypertech tuner and getting an SCT X-calibrator 2? Thanks.

your going to see more gains from the SCT specialy if you already have other mods...the T/B is good, but i believe on a stock GT an SCT gives 17rwp and like 20 ft/lbs...more if you have other mods...the 75mm accufab is the best T/B you can buy for a gt in my opinon...but the SCT would be my choice..

SCT is probably the most popular

the hypertech is slowing your car down more then the stock plenum and throttle body.

Instead of going with an Accufab t/b and plenum get a Professional Products 75mm t/b and plenum. That would be almost half the price of the Accufab and it flows just about as much (nice looking piece too check my sig). With the money you save you could get rid of your hypertech tuner and have a good portion of an SCT X cal 2 paid for. Just my $.02
