thats too much, choose either a 70 or 75..and if you want some better gains, get a plenum to go with it

MT offers a tb and plenum combo doesn't it?

yup..accufab

Yes, stick with one of those, the only need for one that big is like a huge drag only, turbo set up. The accufab 75mm combo makes a nice improvement

Yes, they offer both a 70 and a 75mm combo. I would suggest the 75 over the 70 for the few extra bucks that it is.

Even if you are basically stock?

if you are staying around stock (No power adder (NOS, S/C, Turbo)) than get 70mm. If adding the power adder go 75mm.

Yes, id go for it even without a power adder.

You arent going to notice a loss either way. If you actually lost hp between the 75 and 70, youd never know.

dsg_gt2004 06-21-2005 01:00 PM

im keeping my 70mm even when i get supercharged...i keep hearing 70mm provides more torque down low but the 75mm provides more hp up top..i wish i could quote the person who said this

MattJ 06-21-2005 08:19 PM

I didnt notice anything untill 3 grand on my TB/Plenum combo and ive got the 70mm.

Is a throttle body and plenum actually worth it?

MattJ 06-21-2005 08:26 PM

If you have to save for it, no.
If youve got some extra cash to blow, sure.

Badfish 06-21-2005 08:31 PM

thats what I thought...

if u ask me ..yea its worth it....
This mod works best once you pass 3000 Rpms at WOT. I can feel the car accel a bit faster than it did before, after 3000 rpms..

madmatt 06-22-2005 06:32 AM

Yes, but I wouldnt have paid full price for it if I didnt find the deal I did. There is just way more important stuff to use 415 bucks for, like suspension.

I recommend a 75 mm t/b!

MachGT 06-22-2005 02:37 PM

I got a ford racing TB barely used for $80 and ported my own plenum for free ;)
