Default TB and Plenum

Is there any real difference between accufab, bbk, and professional products throttle bodies and plenums? Accufab is the most expensive but will I get any more hp from their tb and plenum than I would from professional products or bbk?

Any input is appreciated

ok. first, and this is nothing personal.... but there is a search button at the top of the screen that will bring up this same question... at least 4-5 thousand times.

but to answer the question, you are not going to get any noticeable power gains from those mods alone. they are good supporting mods to help open things up when doing more work like heads/intake man/FI. you might notice a bit better throttle response, but no huge power gains.

As far as which one to get. I have BBK plenum and TB, Accufab is no better performance wise, just looks nicer. I would get which ever you can get the best deal on price wise.

The price![sm=wootwoot.gif] They are all within 1-3 hp of each other. Save your money and get the cheapest one.

I got pro prod 75mm t-body and plenum no real power gain but more throttle response I love it and it was not that expensive on e-bay. but get whatever you want and will make you feel good about yourself. some want most expensive shat some want a budget build up to you pro prod is cheap and works great accu fab is expensive and works just as good

I have the PP tb/plenum and had no problems, but I won't deal with RPM outlet ever again. just make sure they have everything you are ordering in stock or they will tell you it could be three months before they have it in. I tried them instead of ebay thinking I had a better chance with a company than ebay but I was wrong. I got mine from blue oval on ebay. sorry for the rant I dislike rpm outlet, horrible cust. service.
