70mm Throttle Body.

[ford2000mustang]

Has anyone used the BBK 70mm throttle body? I want to get it and a 73mm C&L mass air meter but I heard that a bigger throttle body on the v6 actually makes you lose horsepower, unless you're using a blower or other power adder.

Yes using to big of a throttle body will actually make your car lose HP, even using a 70mm TB on a stock 5.0 mustang would be to much. I'd suggest going with a 56mm BBK unit. That should help giving you some extra ponies.

BBK advertises a 56mm for a V6.
