Gears will always win out as the biggest bang for the buck item you can install. They will take some off your top end (which is basically useless at 140-150 mph) but give you in return a Mustang that is a whole hell of alot more fun to drive and much faster between street lights. Your power curve will be much more accessable as you will be able to get your rpm's higher much faster. Kind of makes your engine & tranny feel as though they are always in the "sweet spot". Gears are simply the best!

ORIGINAL: Deannostang

I went with the Ford Racing 70mm throttle body for two reasons: 1) Accufab says the 70mm works best with their plenum unless you are making a host of other mods (almost no change in performance with the 75mm they tested over the 70mm), and 2) the Ford Racing throttle body, unlike any other sold on the market, comes with all new sensors already attached for immediate install.
Im thinking of getting the same set-up. Did the gaskets come with the TB and/or Plenum, or did you have to buy them separate?

I have tha Mac CAI. I've been looking at the Accufab TB&P. I 've been curious as that is a good kit to get or as deanno suggested gettin the FRPP TB and then the Accufab plenum. I'm not much for mixing and matching parts on the engine but if it works it works. Also what kind of HP and torque gains there are for a slightly modded engine.
