Stock Throttle Body

thewayshemoves · December 2nd, 2006, 06:39 AM

how big is the stock throttle body? I just spent about 30 minutes on the search trying to get it to stop breaking up the three words, but it won't and I can't go through 7k+ topics looking for stock throttle body...so if you could just tell me right quick I'd appreciate it....and also...if I get a larger throttle body, has anyone sold their stock one? can I actually get anything out of it?

65mm I think...

SWEET2KSTANG · December 2nd, 2006, 09:48 PM

i took my throttle body and plenum off and did a p&p. i went to an aftermarket after i had nothing else to do. 65mm is stock and for an n/a car 70mm is all you need. my T/B and plenum is going up for sale along with other stuff soon.

go with accufab 70mm with plenum and i think the stock t.b. is smaller maybe 55mm

SWEET2KSTANG · December 2nd, 2006, 11:04 PM

99-04 4.6 sock T/B is 65mm. the older mustangs had smaller. MAF is 80mm 99-01 85mm 02-04 and all have the same T/B.

see I was looking for it online, and all I could find was the older 55mm throttle bodies, and I didn't think mine was that small...I got a 70 mm on the way, and I got a high flow plenum or whatever already...what is a good follow up for those?

SWEET2KSTANG · December 3rd, 2006, 03:31 AM

dont know without more info on the car. whats been done, what do you want to do with it, what kind of priorities do you have for it, etc.

thewayshemoves · December 3rd, 2006, 01:16 PM

its a stock 2003 GT convertible, not looking to make it an ungodly fast drag car, but I'd like to have nice moderate street capabilities, and run some good times too. I don't have the money to supercharge or anything like that, I was just wondering what other small things I could do to make a little difference in power. I got flowmaster exhaust with super 40 mufflers, I got high flow plenum, and 70 mm throttle body. Ordering underdrive pulleys soon. what else is there? my priorities are simple, just to make the car a bit faster, a bit quicker, and a bit more fun, nothing too serious...and I'm going to do gears too, so is there anything else besides those that I'm missing that might be good?

SWEET2KSTANG · December 4th, 2006, 03:49 AM

CAI, gears,programmer,& maybe cams. depends on what you are considering a little difference in power. if thats not enough vitamin N2O.

thewayshemoves · December 4th, 2006, 04:01 AM

hahah, nah I don't think I'll ever need any of those vitamins, but if I put a 270 cam in it, that won't hurt the stock internals will it? can I go any bigger safely?

SWEET2KSTANG · December 4th, 2006, 05:35 AM

272 is about the limit on stock setup. after that, springs, bottom end and headwork(optional) will need to be done. a dyno tune will make the cam show its real potential.

thanks man, I'll look into all that
