Called them just now. Spoke to Kevin and Fred. There were 2 and one has my name on it. Not sure about the other one.

MrPc: Steeda has em for 30bucks. I have seen them used/takeoff from $30 to $85.

Yes, and while you are calling Steeda, go ahead and pick up a set of 19# injectors also, if you don't have an SVT. I understand they are practically giving those away also.

Couple that with the 80mm maf calibrated for them, and you've got a nice package.

Heres a query for the more knowledgeable folks here: could any upgrade TB (65-70mm) be fitted with the brackets/cables to retain traction control on a 96? Seems like a good mod to do if price can be kept low with a used part, but I would like to keep TC if at all possible. Thanks

I was thinking that we could just buy some 19lb injectors and a mustange MAF, but i called them and they said the outside diameter is 80mm but it is reduced inside to around 70mm or so (?)....it is prolly too big to attach to a stock rubber accordian tube and a KKM....

I just have to get my hands on a 65mm TB and i think i will be set for a while. My car is running rich over 5300 RPMS right now anyways, so the extra air the larger TB lets in will help me out. I will get a larger MAF too though, dont get me wrong, when is the question, not if....

Do you want to pay $85 for one? Some dude emailed me and said he had one.

I got a used 70mm one for less than that. The 65mm factory ones collecting dust on someones shelf should be much cheaper.
