07 Gt MODS

[Silversky]

I have an 07 Mustang GT
5 speed
JLT cai
SCT SF3 tunner (with 93 octane race tune)
UPR o/x pipe
stupid American Thunder cat-back
stock 3:55 gears

my question is this.... ive read several different opinions on Throttle bodies... I have a BBK 62mm Twin throttle body sitting in the garage.... does the TB making good power over stock with tune??

[matts5.0]

it should making more power than stock.

[Silversky]

I was told the stock tb can handle little over 500hp so there is no point in a bigger tb until you have more than that....

[sickpony]

throttle response?

[Silversky]

throttle response?

can you expand upon that??

[sickpony]

True you probably won't pick up any extra hp but another throttle body might get the fire burning a little quicker. Crank it up (your car) and give the throttle one quick hit. Are you happy with how quickly it revs? Turn the bwaaaa to a ra!

[Silversky]

Ahh i see... I'm buying it off a guy for $200 ( paying him in payments) making sure it's worth $200

An aftermarket TB will not give you better throttle response or give you any more hp.

If you want to go faster, get a custom tune and higher gears. A TB will do shit.

i have the SCT as stated above and the guys over at american muscle have already sent me a custom tune with the TB .... i Just have not put it on...

It's a waste of money.

[Silversky]

yea thats what im starting to think as well... I have not purchased it yet so thats good at least

[sickpony]

is the car stock? then it wont make much difference. Remember you engine is an air pump, more in and more out more efficient. My last pushrod setup picked up half a sec. in the eighth with a bigger tb. But it will only flow as good as your intake will allow.

Go with 410 gears. Then longtubes. Those throttlebody arent worth it.

My old 06 GT had,
Jlt cold air
headers
offroad
flowmaster axle back
bbk throttlebody--was on there when i bought it
410 gears

Car ran hard! I've installed those throttlebody and seen no gains.

Get long tubes for it.

cmdp's, udp's, and lt headers should be next. TB's are paper weights at this point in your build. I wouldn't look into a new tb or intake manifold until after 500rwhp.
