Professional Products is pretty good, just about as good as anything else, especially for the price....

I have accufab and I like it but I think it's the most expensive. Either way you can't go wrong with Accufab!

NO, but you won't gain anything either, Accufab's numbers (about 1/2 way down the page) sum it up nicely--the size of the intake manifold port is the bottleneck and going to a TB larger than 70 mm doesn't gain anything.[/align][/align]Which brings up another point,changing the TB without changing the plenum won't do much of anything; do 'em both or do the plenum first if ytou want to stagger the costs...[/align]

Accufab seems to be the highest quality, but it's also the most expensive.
The Professional Products one looks pretty good but aren't they the same people who make that POS Typhoon intake?
That alone would scare me []

I would stick with a 70mm unless you are going FI down the road.

I might go with an Accufab 70mm TB and keep the stock plenum because I like the running horse thingie [:-]
Yea I know....

I haven't made up my mind yet.
