Quick question before I order

slikirish · November 21st, 2009, 04:08 PM

I was gonna go 75mm b/c I plan on doing full bolt ons and cams in the future

MustangBryan03 · November 21st, 2009, 05:39 PM

if ur gonna get one the first time just go with the 75mm TB

Smoothgrandmama · November 21st, 2009, 06:40 PM

It's really kind of pointless to debate.

it's only a 3hp swing anyways if you want the BBK 78mm then get it if you want 75mm then get it if you want 70 then get it. you wouldn't notice a difference between the 3 unless you were running a power adder anyways.

slikirish · November 21st, 2009, 11:24 PM

well it seems like for the money the best bet is the 78mm BBK combo unit but I may go 75mm. Shit i had this figured out and now i'm second guessing...

mrbigjeep · November 22nd, 2009, 12:25 AM

if your gonna run the jlt intake then you can't run the 78mm combo anyway because the intake only fits up to 75mm...

bbk isn't a cheap brand that makes cheap parts. most are pretty proven and quality although most all company's can have their downfalls

i run the bbk 75mm tb and trickflow plenum and like...the trickflow combo looks nice and i would chose that over PP. JMO. and you will be fine with 75mm. i don't buy into that whole too big thing

the only thing I noticed with a BBK 78mm n/a(for now) was throttle responce and thw whistle

Their fuel rails I bought leaked at every fitting, and I have talk to many others with the same problem..

I have heard more cons than pros with their typhoon intake. I 've seen people lose hp with them, and a couple leak water at the crossover where the casting seam was. Just a metal copy of the orginal unless it's ported and it gets heat soaked. Unless a metal intake is a lot better design than the stock one to make up for the heat soak the plastic one performs better after the motor is hot. The typhoon intake is not.

I did own their plenum and TB and they worked fine.

the website says it works with tb's up to 75mm. i suppose you could squeeze it on there but i didn't want to deal with that so i just listened to that and didn't go bigger than 75.

its not bad at all. Soak and water. real easy.

JoshC! · November 22nd, 2009, 09:43 PM

i have a professional products tb and plenum and have no complaints at all. it stuck a little when i first put it on but it doesnt anymore. worth the money for sure. if you get the bbk 78mm the jlt intake will still work itll just be fun gettin it on there lol it was fun with my 75mm tb haha the cheapest i found the pp tb and plenum was on latemodelresto.com

Scott2001GT · November 23rd, 2009, 12:04 AM

its not that hard to get the JLT on the 78mm really.

JoshC! · November 23rd, 2009, 07:00 PM

thank you mylilboostedpony for the help
