Default Full Race Intake Manifold -- Mustang Throttle Body?

I've read on FR site where the GSR manifold will support Mustang 75mm+ throttle bodies. I sent them a email and was told to look on ebay for an Accufab. They didn't specify which mustang model but looks like the 96-01 mustangs accufab made a 75mm TB for $240 MSRP and i found it around for $210 shipped.

Has anyone used anything other then the stock gsr TB on a Full Race IM? If so were you able to notice any gains and can you give some pro/con on your experience with it during install and driving. Thanks.

I dont' know what kind of gains, but it's definately been known to hurt performance ft the setup isn't ready for that amount of air.
But we put one on our sfwd car and no probs at all, just get the adaptor plate for honda and your good to go
it looks extremely sick under the hood btw

They do sell those but I was curious to see what everyone was using that was made specifically for mustangs. I figured I could save a few bucks since if you compare an import TB to a domestic you will see the import TB's are marked up bigtime.

We ran several versions of the mudstain TB's on the Colt and broke them all (the shafts snapped) went to the Infiniti Q45 TB and have had no problems.

What kind of Mustang TB's? A BBK is not the same is an Accufab is not the same as a Wilson.

I run a Wilson 105mm TB on my car and at 35+ pounds of boost I've never had a problem with throttle shafts breaking. I did run into that issue on some BBK's, but never Wilson or Accufab TB's.
