Intake - Will It Work?

[rebelstang01]

I have an 01 GT w/ a K&N FIPK II and was wondering if a 75mm TB would work w/ the K&N CAI. If not what could I do to make it work?

 

[Go HoTO!]

It should fit fine as I believe all the TB's are at 80 mm where the pipe joins up. I would caution against using a 75 mm TB unless though you have an after-market intake plenum to go with it. Expect to see a hp loss if you use the 75 mm TB withe stock plenum.

yea there is no need for a 75mm IMO unless you are using a power adder, or have a high compression motor that you need to feed that air to.

I was planning on buying the accufab 75mm TB/Plenum combo. Is this not a good idea right now? I eventually will add cams and nitrous, but it won't be till next spring. If I add the TB/Plenum will it hurt me right now?

should work.. I have the KNN Air Charger kit with the BBK 75mm tb and it fits fine

 

[rebelstang01]

My main concern is whether or not the silicone hose will fit over the larger throttle body.

that TB is too big for your application, you are almost into the racing TB's!

It'll fit just fine, I had an FIPK and a 75mm TB on my car for 2 years.

Also, its a proven fact (by our good friend the dyno) that a 75mm TB and an aftermarket plenum (especially the Accufab) are good for a couple ponies to the rear wheels. Even on a setup as mild as this

So will the K&N supplied silicone hose fit over the 75mm throttle body or do I need to get a new one?

my stock intake hose fit over the Accufab 75mm. Also if your going to go with cams then go with the 75mm. You wont out grow it and have to buy one latter. The HP is noticable and the only other thing I have are UD pulleys. I think it was a great mod.

 

[TARZAN]

Agreed.

And yes, the hose should fit fine. May take a lil elbow grease, but yes.
