Steeda now carrying Ford Racing 84.5mm Throttle Body for 5.0s!

Just wanted to let you guys know that Steeda is now carrying the Ford Racing throttle body for 5.0s. Let me know if I can help you with anything!



Ford Racing 84.5mm Mustang Throttle Body - 11-13 GT & 12-13 Boss - $609.95 ON SALE

Optimize your horsepower and torque with Ford Racing's 84.5mm throttle body.

This throttle body will bolt directly to the stock intake manifolds of both the 2011-13 5.0L GT models and 2012-13 Boss 302.

Requires a larger 4" inlet tube connection. Not compatible with factory inlet tubes.

Custom tuning after installation highly recommended.

Product Benefits
  • High Flow for improved horsepower and torque
  • 84.5mm diameter
  • Bolts directly to factory GT & Boss manifolds

That looks exactly like the accufab, is it?

If so, its a nice piece, just need to make sure whatever coupler used is 4" on the TB end.

Never understood why parts are so dam expensive for these cars.

My accuracy for my 89 was polished and was like 179 brand new.

If that. I'm running one of these and it can't be worth much more than a few hp. Nice throttle response however.

Brandon, do you guys have a dyno sheet with the Boss manifold and a throttle body installed along with a CAI/tune? I've read it more than once that the TB helps with the midrange loss due to a Boss manifold install. My install and dyno reflects that and very happy with it, just curious if you guys did a pull also, thanks.

Are there any CAIs out there that have a larger 4 inch tube all the way through to match up to it? Or is everything going to reduce in size and then have a coupler that expands it out? I've been looking at getting the Steeda CAI for a while becasue it looks like a great piece and haven't seen any complaints and they've been really helpful in the past for me.

I'm not sure who manufactures it. It does look like the Accufab unit to me.

Somewhere between 8-12HP.

I'm not sure, I will check with our tuner and see if he has anything like that.

Not to my knowledge. You would just need to use a new coupler with our's. Let me know if I can help you with anything.

I'd say worth a solid 5 hp as long as the tips voltage doesn't drop off
