You can get the tb/plenum combo for about 440. I am still using my K&N drop in filter until i have enough to upgrade to a densecharger. I am not sure if you can use the same inlet tubing if you use the 75mm tb, it was a tight fit (PITA) on my 70mm.

The inlet tubing fits the 75mm if you shave the inner lip as I did. Worked out fine.

Though a week later I got a new C&L trueflow fit perfect for 106 shipped.

parkway ford on ebay.

The 75mm will fit as well, as this is the setup that I have..but you're right.. it's a BIG PITA...very tight fit...I used a little soapy water and opened the screw in clamp as far as it would go... eventually it slipped on...

so if you are going to stay n/a then it is better to get a 70mm TB than a 75mm TB??

6 in one hand or 1/2 dozen in the other.. I don't think it makes much difference.

I stayed with the 75mm after the testing becuase the car made more total HP with it on. I may go Vortech someday, and that was another reason to keep the 75mm TB.

Yes this is what I have heard. Mildly modded= 70, More modded 75. Some choose to go with the 75 anyway mildly modded and suffer some low end torque loss compared to a 70mm until they get more mods. Check out Matt's plenum test on modulardepot and you can see the dynos for each combo. Keep in mind that Matt has a 2003 Mustang GT and has BBK Long Tube Headers, BBK X Pipe, Magnaflow Catback. Where as I only have a borla cat back and a 98 mustang gt. So my numbers would most likely not be as good with a 75mm as his. If I had LT's and an Xpipe I might have gone with the 75.
If I supercharge I will definately go 75,

I'm perfectly aware. I was just refuting his statement that 75mm t/b's make you loose low end torque with aftermarket plenums. If i were to buy the accufab plenum I'd probably get the 70mm t/b too.
