Throttle Body

I've done several seaches on here but can't seem to find anything about a Cobra throttle body being used on a V 10. Does anyone have any info on this to tell me which one it is that is supposed to be interchangable. Thanks for any info.

If you are talking about the Mustang Cobra, I believe it has the same throttle body as the V10. The aftermarket shops say their products will fit either vehicle.

So is there any gain from doing this. I see they run around 3-400 dollars, which if its a minimal as I suspect it is I thinnk there are better ways to increase performance. I still wouldn't mind someone else trying one to see what difference it actually makes.

I installed a accufab throttle body on my 03 - The stock body had 2 holes the accufab body has one big oval hole. I think the initial pickup from dead stop inproved along with top end in each gear and its pretty - but probably not worth the money .

Thumbs up

The Throttle body alone isn't going to produce any huge gains, but coupled with a chip or programmer, and a cold air intake and a good exhaust system, the cumulative effect is well worth the investment
