well dont get larger TB to you need one. and a to large of one will hurt. a 73 mm maf is good for yoru stock 60mm tb knowign htat stock is like 45 mm maf

stock TB is like 55mm or so.... and i wouldnt bother gettin a bigger maf unless you get another tb..... with non aspirated setups a 70mm tb and a 76mm works perfect... if your going to s/c it then a 65 will be good........... just my 2cents

RE: MAF ....
Interesting thread..... I was thinking about these mods as well.
First mod will be bbk long tubes, h-pipe and catback exhaust.
Next mod will be a bbk cold air fender mount
Everything else is stock, so if I decide to go with a throttle body, what do you suggest?
Also, what kind of MAF do I need to upgrade to? What do I have in the car right now?

RE: MAF ....
wrong wrong wrong... stock tbs are 58mm and 60mm not 55mm. the stock maf maybe 55mm. a 70 TB on a stock or near stock motor will hurt performance cause of the intake that was chosen. one getttign a new MAF on a stock car is benefical to stepup to like a 73mm. go look at yoru stock maf and see how restrictive it is. that is one reason a SD will beat a same equippd MAF stock for stock.

dont go TB yet, if anything get an intake. see carefully planning your H/C/I are very important and then choosing a TB wil make or break that combo. dont get one for now. since your car is stock no need to get a new one. now get a 73,74,75 maf for now. just rule of thumb your maf should be larger then your TB by a good bit. stock they are smaller then your stock TB

what i read was that stock tb was 55, and i dont know stock size of maf...... but i SUPPOSE i could be wrong.. [sm=lol.gif]....... LOL but ya, and a 70mm tb on a near stock motor with bolt ons wont hurt... now going bigger then 70 would... my car is lighly modded, and i got 70mm tb and noticed a good gain... so i wouldnt call it a loss
