I have been looking around for a better Cold Air intake setup for my 1995 Mustang V6. Right now its stock, and we all know that only flows 550cfm. Im looking for something that flows closer to 800cfm.


Im also looking for a very large Throttle Body, but the largest I can find is only about 64mm I think. What is the largest I can get without modding my intake manifold? And who can I get it from? Also is there a kit out there with a custom intake manifold and TB on it? Or can i buy them separatly? All links would be much appriciated :)


 


Thanks everyone.

The pony plate is on the stock plenum (not intake manifold)and is standard on all Stangs 99 and up, thanks though.

Hmmm, looks good


Your intake is alot different then mine, but that is to be expected cause mines a V6. That pony plate would be on my runners it i tried compaired them. A manifold that we were going to use on our 70' vette 350 Z block was the Performer RPM because of the large plenum it had. Thanks for plenum space it helps to force a denser charger of air and fuel into the engine, since the space in a plenum has a higher pressure then outside of it.

Why are you looking for such a large MAF and T/B ?

Forced induction and highly modified bottom end, heads and intake manifold. Nothing is going to be left alone on this block.

Like HotRodMan said. BBK is the only one I could find for the V6, but there my be more now. I last looked a few months ago when I bought my 72mm. But BBK is a good company. Mac listed one but it was never available.

I wouldn't get the big T/B untill you do a power adder or it will run bad,(bottom end loss) Bigger MAF will help on your year, but nothing great untill you get a bigger T/B, so do them both at the same time you add your forced air.

Super Six recomends 60mm with thier stage 3 power pack (which is N/A), so that must mean that as long as your N/A 60mm is ok.

I know I'm a few days late for this post, but I was reading some reviews on StangNet.com and the MAC system got higher ratings than the BBK intake.  I am currently looking for a good intake and I think I'm going to get the MAC.

The truth is, Mac and BBK are identical. Get which ever one is least expensive. Infact, you can get a no name off ebay for around $65.00 that is identical to my Mac that I paid $275.00...grrrrr.

Yeah I was looking at the intakes on Ebay, but I wasn't sure about those.  I'm always suspicious of things from no name companies and companies I have never heard of (although I haven't heard any complaints from people who have purchased theirs from Ebay).

CAI are pretty simple. As long as the air filter is a good one, IE: K&N
