is rhe accufab throttlebody worth the $$$ or should i be looking for something esle to get more hp for the money. i all ready have #5 lower magnaflow exh. jlp air inductionkit. Just wondedring what to do next???

 

Waste of money.....50/50 mod. You might get lucky, I was told you need to be in the 500 HP range for these to be worth it.

 

I dunnoo..you can't put a price on throttle response.

 

You will get better throttle response,but for your mods you'll only gain about btw 5 and 10 hp! Not a good return on your money! Jim

 

You are correct. I was just one of the unlucky 1's. I read and tried everything to make it work.

 

I've actually heard of a few sub 400 hp Ls actually lose some power with the single blade. I however am not one of them. Personally, I think its just another important piece of the puzzle in the quest to go faster. You also can't leave out the bling factor.

 

ive heard that from some other people

 

ive heard there hard to get set up right to get it to idle right and rev down real slow

 

wish I could find an BaBolt or FRPP version from back in the day, don't care for the Accufab Bling.

 

Not my BaBolt one on my 2001 L !

Here's how I look at it, you'll get a gain if you have all the parts that compliment it. Say a ported eaton, filter kit, c&L upper plenum(or equivalent) and for the exhaust, long tubes w/ high flows. Then you'll see a worthy gain...

If I was to get it, I would do the SBTB and upper plenum at the same time...

 

I run one, its not worth much horsepower, but the throttle response is awesome. deffinately a bit pricey, if you want throttle response and the head room for future mod then get it, if you are not planning to do LT's and ported supercharger and intake any time soon spend your money elsewhere.

IMO

 

Mine actually runs better with the stock tb...I just got the polished a/f for looks more than anything else as I show alot and it matches my other polished engine bling!

 

does accufab offer a cast finish version?

 

yes...

ATS is working on one for the cobra's last time i talked to linn they had talked about lightning one after that...
