Sorry I didnt search it guys, Im at school and they are keepin me runnin like a wild man lol But anyway, I was looking at an accufab 70mm throttle body and plenum. Its an '02 2v with nothing done to it yet, in the future I plan on doin a jlt CAI, underdrive pullies, and a catback, maybe headers way down the road. Is the accufab a pretty good piece as far as quality and power gains or do you think I can do better elsewhere?

accufab makes super nice stuff although 70mm may be a little big for a stock car, but at least you will be able to grow into it..

accufab makes the best stuff and 70mm will be fine. a 75 would be too big for the stock.

i had dragon stuff. i really liked it.

i still have the plenum if your interested in buying it.

thats what i have.

either way your not going to gain/loose to much with a TB/plenum. just but what you can get a good price on

The Accufab is def the nicest looking of the ones available but i think it only makes about 1-2hp over the other brands. Also, if you find a 75mm for a good price don't be afraid to get it. Some say the 75mm tb is too big for a stock car but it does make a little more power over a 70mm. Just my .02.

I ended up with a C&L with a bbk 75mm TB, JLT fenderwell and BBK long tubes, it should run/sound pretty sweet :)

3.73 or 4.10 best bang for the buck
