Accufab TB/Plenum Install

Zaff03GT · 02-17-2006, 07:10 AM

Im getting my Accufab TB/Plenum combo in the mail on Monday and am planning on installing it on my 03GT next week. Just wanted to know if anyone had any tips on installing it and what problems I may come across. Also, if you have one installed already let me know what you think about it. Thanks for you help.

Well I didnt install an accufab but I did install a C&L plenium and a ford racing one on my friends mustang. It was very simple I didnt have instructions either. Just look at the new plenium and see what all you need to take off on the old one and were everything unbolts.

Be prepared to get pissed at the intake tube...well, nm, you have a CAI. Get a new EGR gasket from NAPA as the old one usually is toast. Dont drop anything down the intake manifold...

Easy as hell to install.Just remember how you took the old one off.Had mine done in less than 30 minutes and then broke the negative terminal bolt while making one last turn :wallbash:

I heard that you have to use a voltmeter to check the voltage on the throttle position sensor. Is this necessary?
