    Hey guys 70 or 65 mm tb?

    I've noticed that some people on this site have a serious reading comprehension problem. :chair: As I said before, the throttle body shouldn't be larger than the intake inlet (75mm for TFS). So, your 105mm comment is meaningless. The tb should match the intake. It can't hurt to run a...

    Hey guys 70 or 65 mm tb?

    Wow, you totally missed my point. Obviously you didn't actually read the rest of this thread where I told him to get a 75. My point was that a larger tb (up to the intake size, 75mm in this case) won't hurt. The air won't "stall and you loose all your torque."

    Hmm, I like them too. :D I converted mine from an AOD to 5-speed. And then I did a few more minor modifications. :jester:

    Hey guys 70 or 65 mm tb?

    :bang: :bang: Sigh. Ok, I'll explain this one more time. The tb is a VERY small portion of the intake tract. Your whole pipe and hose analogy is totally meaningless in this case. You have a long (compared to the tb) intake track before the tb, then the intake itself after the tb. Any...

    Hey guys 70 or 65 mm tb?

    Definitely the 70 over the 65. I'd actually run a 75 because that's what the intake was designed for, but that's just me. :crazy: I'm sure all the experienced guys with 14 second monsters will chime in and tell you to get the 65. You get to pick who to believe. :flag:

    Painless Wiring .... Quick Question.

    Yes, but it's located near the EEC, not at the distributor.

    I agree with Rick.

    4.10's with a manual

    With 550+ rwhp, he should trap at least 125 mph, probably more like 130. With 4.10s and a 26" tire, that's 6500-7000 rpm through the traps. Probably more than he wants to turn.

    how to hit 400hp on a fox stang

    You guys need to remember that this is totally stripped down on an engine dyno. That motor would put down around 280-290 rwhp in a Mustang through a 5 speed.

    4.10's with a manual

    Some of you guys have serious reading comprehension problems. This what he said: In other words, he doesn't give a crap about highway mileage. For the best ETs with his setup, he needs 4.10s or even 4.30s with a 26" tire or 4.56s with a 28" tire. Anybody recommending 3.73s for his setup...

    Why does the car run hotter when the air is on?

    That's not entirely correct. The a/c needs airflow through the condensor in front of the radiator in order to work properly. So, stock electric fans turn on with the a/c to provide this airflow.

    Cold air vs open filter data

    No, I need to use a thermometer and measure the ambient temp difference at some point. I imagine my results are a combination of having a well ventilated engine bay to reduce the ambient temp differences and the manifold heat soak equalizing the air temps by the time the air reaches the act.

    Cold air vs open filter data

    I'm in the process of swapping over to an 80mm Pro-M and custom 4" intake tubing. I wanted to figure out if there was actual anything to gain from shoving the filter through the fender to get to "cold air." It occured to me that since I can data log ACT with my Tweecer I can answer the...

    24 or even 30# injectors possible?

    Why do you think your injectors are bad? More than likely just dirty. You can usually pick up used 19s really cheap.

    Can I Keep my 30's and lower the fuel pressure?

    Meters are calibrated for injector size, EEC, and induction system. Many possible ways for it to be wrong. The only 70mm meter for a Mustang I'm aware of is the 93 Cobra meter which is calibrated for the 93 Cobra EEC using 24 lb injectors.

    Can I Keep my 30's and lower the fuel pressure?

    What mass air meter are you running? Are you sure it's calibrated for your application?

    dyno numbers for Trick Flow combo

    Nice numbers! Really impressive torque output! :flag: The 75mm tb is exactly what you want. It matches your intake and anything smaller is a waste of time and money. Somehow I manage to make 367 rwhp with a 306 and a 75mm tb. Don't know how though since Stangnet says it's too big...

    MAF Conversion compatibilty Question!

    Any A9L, A3M, or A9P will work. 89-93 5.0s came with these EECs.
