anyone upgrade their throttle body yet?

It's been a couple weeks. Has anyone compared different throttle bodies yet?

Throttle Body for 03 Cobra

:coolman: Helped a fellow 03 Cobra owner, at the Fun Ford event in Ennis yesterday, prepare to compete in his class. He had a single blade TB with a TB-to-Blower manifold from Paul's that worked very well, not to mention the 503 RWHP.

503 RWHP, :thumbsup: What does the rest of his mods consist of? What kind of times did he run?

03 Throttle Body

:coolman: ALLNTRL:

The car had the single-blade TB and runner previously mentioned, BBK full-length headers, Bassani X and cat-back system, 2.80" pulley, gutted airbox w/o filter or screen (crazy) and no chip. I put the boost bypass on it yesterday morning. Boost is about 16 psi initially, but falls off to about 11-12 psi in the upper rpms. At this HP level, the blower is probably unable to flow enough CFM to maintain the boost. The 503 RWHP was previously dynoed in Houston, 98 degrees and humid. The car has run mid 11s on some very exotic 19" wheels and street tires and, no doubt, will run a 10 in cooler weather. I was unable to see it run yesterday afternoon, so don't know how he did. I had a prior commitment and had to leave early.

yeah heres pauls full intake with big single blade ported and polished. and a different intake tube from the throttle body to supercharger the stock one is very restrictive. No dyno yet but huge noticable difference.

Is the Pauls unit a modified accufab, or a unique piece?

Anyone ever use the accufab on anything? I have one i am going to try to make work, although it has no throttle air bypass passage. It appears like there may be a way to drill one and have it meet with the top of the 'epiglottis" looking thing in the blower intake tube, although most of that will need to be removed to allow the single blade to open.

Anyone not use the TAB, and just leave the TB slightly cracked open?

[Terminator03]

[Blades]

The exotic 19 inch wheels ring a bell. That sounds like fakesnake..

Terminator, do you know what A/F ratio you are using? And do you plan on getting dynoed anytime soon?
