Is it worth getting A 75mm TB/plenum kit with my set up?

[babeabe19]

I was looking at getting Professional Products 75mm TB/plenum kit on ebay for $240 bucks. I was wondering if its worth getting with my setup. I have seen many of the posts about TBs and plenums and most people say to get LTs, intake, exhaust, or 4.10s. But i already have all of those and i just got a set of subframe connectors. If i do get, will i see more gains with all of the other things ive done to my car? im looking to get my car to do mid 13s, will i see it with this. im already doin 13.8 & 13.9s.

Do it. Considering what you've spent on your car already, this is a drop in the bucket.

plenum, = maybe might as well.
tb = I've read mixed reviews on th professional products tb.

im really kinda scared of the tb they make... ive read to much abuot them being total crap... id get a mac or BBK since they are fairily cheap and have better reviews.... im going to get the BBK plenum too because it looks cooler

Don't get a mac HUGE POS. Also they have no idea what customer support is.
BBk, Frrp, accufab, dragon, are all ones I would trust.

Ive heard several people say great things about the Professional Products plenum and throttle body. I plan on buying one myself, and am not worried about it.

Heres a link for a better price, and they come polished...

does anyone think that it will get me into mid 13s? as far as power gains go.

double post... sorry.

You should be close to that now...



Edit: Just noticed you had a vert. A coupe with your mods should be able to pull a mid-13 or around there, verts are a little heavier so it looks like your on par.

Try out Holley's new TB for our cars. It comes with a new TPS

Stay away from PP. Go with Accufab, C&L or Dragon; even Trick Flow.

Slicks or drag radials will get you close to 12's and undo your front sway bar. What's your trap speed?
T-bodies and upper plenums, are over-rated in my opinion. Good for maybe a tenth. I've seen 99 gt with x-pipe, catback, and stock gears go from 13.9, to 13.3 by just throwing on slicks.

Why? Because they are more affordable? Professional Products makes top quality knock-offs!!! Their throttle body is a really great peice, and $100 for a 75mm unit, you can't beat it!

Last night, the same guy, had installed a C&L plenum, and was running his street tires, at the track, and went home after just 2 runs, pissed, saying his car had no power and surged.
