I have a stock auto GT and already getting a MAC cold air intake...and was thinking of the intake plenum combo...which size would be best 70mm or 75mm and keep in mind i might get a blower down the road and id like to not have to change it??

If you are getting a blower later , then might as well get 75mm. You won't get as much power now though, just be warned.

Unless you're leaving your car mostly stock forver, go 75. There's almost no difference on a mostly stock car, between the two and the 75 will make more power as you add more mods.

Here's our test with a stock GT with only a (worthless) drop-in k&n.

so with an accufab just get the 75mm combo and it will fit fine with a MAC cai...because im getting one for 65m from a guy on stangnet trader...and also a timing adjuster...

A 70mm is just fine for my blower car, i might be losing like 1 or 2 hp, but the money i saved by doing that allowed me to make up that hp.

I'll be getting a SC hopefully this year. I bought the 75mm and put it on my now N/A engine and I could still feel a gain with it on. Definitely worth it.

if you go with CAI, 75mm tb and 75mm plenum, you'll feel an increase in power gaurenteed

even just the CAI, and TB will give to a nice boost,

Read both articles, 70mm vs 75mm. If you think you are going to mod past the car featured in the article (I believe its most if not all bolt ons) then 70 mm is the better choice.

from the numbers given on Stangpros website it looks pretty damn good.

from stangpros site using the dragon 75mm TB, plenium and Demolet intake.
"With the improved breathing of the DeMolet Tunable Induction, we picked up another 12.7hp and…make sure you're sitting down for this…29.3 ft-lbs of torque."

if you get all three i think those numbers are pretty good compared to others that i have seen. it is the top runner for a TB and plenium when i get one.

the Accufab is to blingy for the likes of me.

almost 30lbs of torque for around $500 that is pretty good.

not really they are all within a couple hp and torque numbers of each other.
