Looking at an Accufab and a BBK. Any of you guys haveeither and are there any perferences one over the other?

Hope this isn't a repost I can't work the damn search on this site.

 

what about an intake spacer instead?

 

I would personally stay away from either. So many people have had high idle problems with them both (Especially BBK), however there have been a few with the accufabs that seem to be ok. Realistically you will only get about 3-5hp (thats pretty generous) from the accufab unless you have headers, cams, worked heads, and better intake- and even then they are modest gains. I would put my money elsewhere and maybe freshen up your stocker with some minor PP work and smoothing (thats what I did)...probably didnt get crap from it but it helped me sleep that night lol.

 

Thanks Machwon, does that intake spacer that draxx is talking about any good?

 

well you already have the K&N FIPK, if you add the throttle body and the intake spacer you might see a good gain, but the car might lean out a bit, I think if you were to tune that setup it would really show a good improvement.

 

I can get a good deal on a Accufab TB for just under a 100 used and i think i'm going to get me a tuner and try to play with is a bit myself. I started modding and now i'm a damned addict!

 

I would pick up the TB for that price. I would also spend the $100 on the intake spacer. If you do get a tuner, bring it to a tuner that knows what they are doing. I wouldn't start playing around with the settings.

 

yep def get an intake spacer! good for around 10 tq, and a few ponies throughout the curve. easy to install mod that actually has provided consistent gains on cars. PM roy on the registry, or order one from www.paulshp.com
