combo question

Whats the best throttle body to run with the ford racing intake manifold and a turbo? Not sure if the kenne bell or whipple mono blades fit the manifold? I dont think the gt500 tb would be worth it for my setup.

That is a loaded question cause their are a lot of opinions based on who has what and what kind of set-up it is going on. Personally, specifically for your set-up, I'd recommend using the stocker.

I've heard of lots of people having tuning issues or poor gear movement with aftermarket ones. Personally the only aftermarket tb I would use is the frpp cobrajet one.

the stocker will be ok at 650rwhp?

On a blow thru the tb power adder such as centri/turbo you dont need a huge ass tb. Imho port match the tb to the manifold. The frpp manifold and stock manifold openings are 62mm. So the frpp or bbk units will port match. For reference the stock tb is 55mm so it is a bit of a restirction in the flow path, yes the stocker will work at big hp numbers but a port matched to the manifold tb with yeild gains, not much at 650rwhp were talking maybe 10rwhp.

Im using a bbk 62mm tb with my frpp manifold with no issues, and onanother note the frpp manifold was designed to be used with the frpp tb so you cant go wrong there either.

And my last point, if your spending money to upgrade the intake manifold, why put a stock tb back on?

FRPP Manifold + FRPP TB....should preform pretty well.
