Love it!
Love this thing! I have an 03 Mustang GT. I bought it from an older guy who was the original owner and always kept it in the garage. I saw an advert for this BBK 78mm throttle body while buying my Steeda short throw shifter. I read all the reviews good and bad. I was worried it’d be too much air into my mostly stock engine. All I’ve done to it was the shifter, lowered it, MagnaFlow catback exhaust and BBK cold air intake. The pics on Amazon still show the old style BBK machined engraving. They don’t come like that anymore. Some refer to the new emblem as a sticker but it’s more like printed into the metal rather than a sticker. Watch the video by Pony Parts before installing. It’ll tell you everything you need to know. The left throttle bracket hole isn’t as deep as the right. I used a polished spacer I had laying around to make up the difference. Remember to disconnect the battery before you start. And allow it to run a few minutes after starting it back up. I don’t know if it added any more HP but I can definitely feel the improvement in throttle response and the whistle it makes when you goose it is pretty cool! Oh. The bushing that the video tells you to install doesn’t come with it anymore. BBK changed the design to where you don’t need it. Just FYI.

WOW!!!!!!!
This has to be the best thing I've ever done to my 2002 Mustang GT. Recently I installed BBK under drive pulleys and a tune, but I wasn't greatly impressed with the gains for the $. I've wanted this throttle body for about two years so I figured I'd go ahead and pick it up.The install was simple as you'd imagine and the seat of your pants feel is amazing. I instantly noticed my pedal was firmer and had instant response. It really woke my car up and anything above 2800rpms is all gain.I read many people saying anything above a 65-70mm TB is a waste on a non forced induction, but this isn't true. Take a chance and pick one up today I promise it'll be the best thing you've ever done.Keep in mind that my mods (exhaust, CAI, pulleys, tune) probably allowed this TB to see its full potential.You'll need at least a 3 1/2 inch rubber coupler to attach your CAI and new throttle body or prepare to have a great time stretching a 3 inch to fit as I did. A 3 inch WILL work, but it's a royal pain to get on.

A must to do bolt-on for ford 2V 4.6L SOHC
I installed this BBK 1780 TB/Plenum on 2000 for Crown Victoria. Installation was direct and easy with few modification.I "T"ed one of the vacuum lines connections, because BBK 1780 is designed for Mustang which has 3 lines while Crown Victoria has 4 lines. And I drilled a hole by 1/8" bit on the throttle body butterfly to prevent Suction-Lock at take-off and sluggish operation in the low-end (check the photo)The result is a great power gain, excellent throttle response and a very smooth operation though out the entire power band.All that with a great price. For me, it is a must to do bolt-on.I had the following mods upon installation:*PI (heads, cams and intake) swap*Fordracing 24lb fuel injectors*Walbro 190LPH Fuel Pump*Stainless Works Long Tube Headers*04 P71 80mm MAF/Air-Box/Zip-Tube*Steeda Under Drive Pulleys

BBK 1780 Throttle Intake for Ford Mustang GT 4.6L-2V
I work at a small used car lot and although I considered installing it myself, I had our tech do it. It was done in less than 1 hour.I have a 2000 Mustang GT convertible.that is slightly modified with a cold air intake, Flowmaster exhaust, and a performance tune via a Diablo tuner. I drove it home (about 30 miles) and where i could open it up I was very impressed with the additional power during acceleration. Also, I have not yet encountered any "check engine" lights. The Mustang is not my everyday car so I don't monitor the gas mileage and I tend to play more when I drive it. As they say "you play, you pay"All in all I feel this was a fairly inexpensive way to increase horsepower and performance.

Pricey and will need a re-tune immediately
It’s expensive but worth it if you are going to re tune for performance. Will run super lean with out tune.

Easy fit
I thought the logo would be engraved like in the picture but overall really happy. It was easy to install with my after market cai and seemed to improve the exhaust note. Definitely let it idle before testing it out...( I didn’t read the instructions ) got a few backfires because I was impatient. Haha. Would definitely order more products from them in the future!
