Brian's post in your other thread:


The 62 mm throttle body almost lines up but for a smooth fit the manifold needs some machine shop work. A throttle body upgrade makes no performance improvement on a N/A Marauder. If you really want to change anyway, get a 62 mm throttle body for a Cobra.

A throttle body, without other mods, will give you little to no performance gains.

Correct, that was proven on a dyno with the accufab 62MM twin bore.

AND, if you do multiple back-to-back dyno pulls with absolutely no changes to the car you frequently see variations of that magnitude.

Do not go that way. I have a welded version for sale (it broke when it was tightened). Go with a single blade if you want to change TBs

For a single blade to work, I believe you'd have to grind down the "wall" that separates the two OEM air inlets.

I have the Accufab twin 66mm throttle body. It doesn't give you any peak power but it will respond quicker so you get the power sooner.

How much was it and did you install it yourself?

It think it was $3xx...can't remember exactly. It was a few years ago.

I did install it myself. It's fairly easy. The hardest part was keeping the TPS from spinning. Even with that, when I retuned the car, it saw a code from the TPS then it self corrected itself.

The Accufab Twin 60mm TB matches/fits the OEM upper manifold bores almost exactly. (OEM manifold bores are 60mm diameter)
A Twin 62mm TB will require some minor porting of the OEM upper manifold bores for a smooth match.

Yep,
Single blade is a total waste of time and money on an N/A car...
AND you have to grind/remove the center wall of the upper intake manifold in order for the blade to pivot open.

I believe even the Triology MM has a stock TB, and that thing runs 10's.
