Hey guys, I was wondering wat size throttle body does a stock 2000 Ford Mustang GT come with, and wat size would be recommended to change it to with out something too big that takes away power instead of adding? Thanks!!

65 millimeter is what it comes with. Get a 70mm one if your gonna say N/a, if you have plans for a blower, opt for a bigger one.

Personally, I'd go 75mm regardless of your future mods. Later model SOHC engines aren't plagued by low end torque and horsepower loss accompanied by large throttle bodies like the old 5.0L's were. Going up 10mm in throttle body diameter isn't gonna hurt anything. It's true, that you may not see any improvement over a 70mm unit right now, but if later on down the road you do decide to move some air through that mill, it'll be nice to know you don't need to upgrade that particular component again. Not to mention they’re usually had for the same or very little difference in price. 
Your choice really.

:Word: I bought my Accufab 75mm about a year ago. No power loss, maybe a bit of a gain. In February I'll be putting in my KB 1.7l 9psi twin screw... :SNSign:
