Default Throttle body and plenum????

Is there a big difference in the accufab, proffessional products, and bbk. Professional products are a lot cheaper but do they still put out the same horsepower gains as the other and flow the same?

BBK is decent for there price but it also goes as you get what you pay for. I use to use bbk when I had a part time job and couldnt afford anything else. when I got a better job I and started buying stuff from accufab and professional products I started notice a better feel.

BBK products are fine. There's hardly a differance (if at all) between the outragously priced Accufab and BBK or Professional Products. Get the cheapest. TB's and plenums don't do much for our cars unless they're blown anyway. And even if they're FI it's still not worth that much money to get Accufab. My vote is for PP or BBK.

Then that's money wasted. A CAI (which isn't what I was talking about anyway) isn't going to add $hit to our cars anyway. A K&N and silencer removed will be just as good and $150 cheaper than JLT.

that isn't true... half of what makes you pay quality dollar is the name... the other half is transportation, the actual product, and profit... dunno how old you are but you will soon find that out in life
