I've been thinking about upgrading the throttle body on my GT to a 90mm.

When I upgraded the throttle body on my old V6 a decade ago there was a noticeable difference at low speeds for sure. Also you can hear the air being sucked in when the TB was slightly open, people thought I had a turbo which was funny.

You won't see huge gains, a CAI will get you bigger gains for a cheaper price. But if you're like me and want to get as much power as you can and love working under the hood, I'd say go for it.

Throttle bodies have been tested on the 3.7 Cyclone V6 and Coyote V8 for the last 4 years and have shown little to no gains at all. If you are building a full naturally-aspirated race build then sure it should be in there, but as a standalone mod they are not worthy.
