Ok so i have a Magnus street intake manifold that is setup for a 75m mustang throttle body, but is there any other throttle body choices anyone recommends, or had experience with?

If your car is just a mild street car then why do you need a larger than stock throttle body?

you may consider the 1g non turbo tb. It's a little bit bigger than stock and eliminates the need for the TB elbow.

*edit: the butterflys are the same size (60mm) but the non turbo TB dosn't use the restrictive TB elbow (2g tb elbow is 55mm, 1g tb elbow is much smaller) /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

The butterfly on the NT and turbo are both 60mm.

and why cant you just answer my question!



Accufab, BBK, Q45, Boomba, stock Mustang, and Professional Products Agency. All of these will fit and a little searching would have yielded the answer for you.

-He doesn't want to know what throttle bodys fit he wants feedback from others about the ones they've used.

-Here is a link to the TB's the other member was talking about. DSM THrottle Bodys. Hope this helps.

Okay that's fair enough but at the same time the OP hasn't told us anything about what he actually wants us to tell him, other than wanting to hear about our experiences with other throttle bodies. Someone could come on here and say that they have gone 9's on a T66 with a Quadruple Butterfly Throttle Body setup but that's going to be useless information bearing in mind that he already told us ...

Quoting cooliomo:
I dont want to go with a 90mm Q45 Throttle Body, my car is just a mild street setup.



I can see that Tyler's comments might have been mistaken as sarcastic but ironically I think he was the only person who actually understood your post. The link to the DSM Throttle Bodies above is great, I know Terry Posten has done a review on his work and is very pleased. I'm running the same S90 Throttle Body that is in THIS thread. Both the DSM rebuilt Throttle bodies and the S90 have provision for the stock ISC, FIAV, and TPS and are therefore bolt on plug and play but I don't see the benefit of either since I assume from the first post ...

... that in actual fact the OP only has a Magnus Street Intake Manifold (without a throttle body) and that the manifold is simply 'flanged' for a 75mm Mustang throttle body. Presumably then he doesn't want to go that big and is looking for a smaller alternative for street use that might fit that flange? Is this correct?

Now I really am NOT trying to be a dick here, but perhaps a better first post might have been something along the lines of: -

"I recently acquired a Magnus Street Intake Manifold that I'd like to put on my car. I'm currently running a fairly mild street setup (insert basic mods and description of turbo etc) but this intake is flanged for a 75mm Mustang Throttle Body. Is that going to be too big for my needs? I'd be interested to hear anyone's experience with different throttle bodies of different sizes that might fit this intake and any experience/advice you have regards picking the correct sized one that will work for my current setup AND give me some room to grow with future mods."

Like I said, I'm not trying to be difficult here but it is obvious NOT everyone has understood this post or they wouldn't be suggesting DSM Throttle Bodies (NT or otherwise) which clearly will NOT bolt up.
