My car and mods are in sig. My next mods are the C&L Maf kit and truflow inlet pipe, and a throttle body...which one would be better on my N/A car? I've been told I will loose torque with the 75mm one, but if the amount of torque lost is minimal, and the amount of horsepower gained is great, this would be better for me. Hopefully this makes sense...thanks guys.

I think C and L made their highest gains with the 75 mm throttle body. Thats what they recommend on their site i think. Accufab recommends a 70 mm with their plenum but im pretty sure the C and L takes the 75 the best. Hope this helps.

BBK 75 mm TB. Dyno shows gains of trq and hp for the entire rpm range.

Notice you ordered the 10th ani cobra wheels. Mine were installed two weeks ago. I like them (light grey). But it seems most people like the shiny wheels. Since my car is black IMO the wheels blend nicely with the color. i also have 275 Nitto ZR on all wheels. Now I have an SVT logo (on the wheels). If I can't have the SVT vehicles at least I can legitimatley have the wheels.

I have the 75mm accufab and C&L plenum. I don't have any dyno's yet but I didn't feel any loss in torque

Did it feel like you gained some nice power from this throttle body and plenum combo '96&'01stang?

70mm will work fine, and I know where you can get one cheap

But if I can squeeze out a few more ponies with a 75mm I'd rather spend a few extra bucks.

Definately it pulls alot harder through the entire rpm range. I had full exhaust done before I added the plenum/ tb combo and my intake was really choked compared to my exhaust side

:OT: I was wondering if you liked your Dr. Gas X pipe. I have the Prochmaber and I was thinking about ditching it because of leaking problems and going with the dr. gas. For our cars you can buy them alreay asembled right? And the x is farther forward than others right?

Put it this way.....I will always have a Mustang and every Mustang I have from now on will have a Dr. Gas X-pipe. It has that H-pipe deep rumble at idle, but at WOT it is insanely wicked

Nice guys thanks, I'm guessing I'm gonna go with the C&L 80mm Maf, 75mm Accufab TB and the Tru Flow inlet pipe to go with my C&L plenum. Next up Steeda LCAs...and a dr. gas x and JBA cat4ward headers

I'm going with a 75mm TB with the plenum I just ordered. Ronnie D said it would be best if I planned to get "blown" in the future.

Um, I don't know why i don't want long tubes, they kinda seem like a waste, and the JBAs are supposed to be almost the same power as long tubes.

You will make more power and alot more torque with long tubes

You think it will make that much more of a difference between the longtubes and the JBA cat4ward.
