throttle body

[mrben420]

Hey i was wonderin how big of a performance difference will a 70mm throttle body make to my 5.0. Right now the only performance mods are bbk cold air intake and underdrive pullies. Thanks

None right now. Spend your money elsewhere.

Buy gears.

You will feel a slight difference. I did, but that was seat of the pants feel. If I were to do it again I would buy gears first though, for sure. Its better bang for the buck.

3.73's

4.10s or go home

not worth it unless you got it for like $50 bucks used. spend the money on exhuast or gears

I am extremely satisfied with my 70mm T.B I put it in my bone stock cobra this week and woke her up soo much louder and responcesive then i did my exhuast and wow I love my car shes running real strong with just a lil work go 70mm

With minimal mods it won't feel quite as different as gears will. Gears will make your car feel completely different, A throttle body
will probably feel like you put some octane booster in your car.

That's because you already have an ungraded intake.

I think a TB upgrade is mostly useless on a stock-intaked car.

Cobra engines are a lot different than the regular 5.0s

 

[mrben420]

Alright well what is the best ratio some of you are sayin 4.10??

 

[94 DropTop]

Most say 3.73 for manual, and 4.10's for auto. I have 4.10's in my auto and wish i wouldhave went to a 4.30.

 

[mrben420]

alright cool thanks alot.

 

[OnyxCobra]

It doesn't really matter what gear you go with, once you get used to it you'll wish you would have gone with more.

 

[mrben420]

well what are you guys running in yours, and what is your setup?

True, true, true...lol

I'm running 3.55s, right now i'm just running heads and a cam but the plan was always to slap a KB on there, which will be a reality quite soon. I basically just wanted the lowest RPM on the highway and still enough gear to wake it up, even coming from 3.08s it was still plenty noticeable.

 

[AaRoN]

I went from 2.73's to 4.10's. WHAT a difference that is.

 

[mrben420]

would switching to 3.73 loose alot of highway gas mileage?
