Default throttle body

yea that is a good street/strip setup. i could see if you were building a true track only monster than bigger is better. but not for your typical street motor

with some mods you might gain a little hp but you will lose a good bit of torque, this is one of those i think. you will be stuffing too much air into too little ofa space. if you had heads, bigger fuel pump and injectors, etc. you could run a 70, maybe 75 mm but you dont so go with the 65. </P>

I should have a nice lil TB for sale that nobody sells for Mustangs.

I'll just put it like this: you know how you all say you need to upsize the MAF and get an intake to see any gains......I should be able to prove this wrong, and for $50 or less plus shipping + core exchange.

It'll give you the increased throttle response as well as a horsepower gain.....not just the first.

*edit* Spring time is when I should have them done, just need to get me one to experiment on, and get in touch with Nick to have him test it out for me.<edited><editID>jeep45238</editID><editDate>37979.7096180556</editDate></edited>
