No.
Nitrous is adding it's own unmetered air (so to speak). It is not drawing in more air.

VERY much so for a non-SVT.
A little searching could have saved you all of this too.
BTW - the SVT MAF is the same size as a regular MAF.

hey tour96, I put on a 4.6 TPS and now it runs smooth, It was from a 96 GT I aid $30.00 at advanced auto, but when you get your TB be prepaired for doing some modifactions, also durig install make sure to disconnect your battery to reset the comp. Later

Just to clear my name here guys. This is the first problem I have heard of since I started doing these. I have done at least 50 and have sold all of them on this site. No one has been disappointed. I had read before that the tps from the Mustang would give the wrong signal, which would cause idle problems, so I started not sending them recently. From now on, I will send the tps along with it. I have also read that these are a great mod for FI and 3L contours. I had one on my SVT, with ported manifolds and heads and showed a 10th better quarter and about 3-4 hp on a G-tech. I know the g-tech isn't the most accurate, but if you get a good baseline with the same meter on the same road and same conditions, it can tell a lot. Anyway, I want people to be satisfied here so I am willing to work with you guys. Thanks.

I got a refund for my 65mm TB.
$65 was too good to be true.
So instead I emailed Buckshot77.
He will do me right with an optimized Contour SVT TB for $175.

Rick did a really nice job w/ my 60mm TB. I mentioned to him that I took some super fine sandpaper to the inside of the TB (where he ported it open). It came out very very smooooth.  I'd recommend the superfine paper if he hasn't done it for you.

Mine, according to the APEXi, with the Mustang TPS idles at roughly 850 RPM normally, the "stock" idle is 720 RPM, so it's a little off. I have had on occasion to idle at 720 after it sits for 5 minuets or so, but it won't ever go down to that RPM sitting briefly at a stop light. The APEXi also shows that my TPS reads 0% so it COULD be just the idler hole that might need to be covered and re-drilled. I have a report of my test (SE's 53mm TB to the 65mm) at the track HERE So judge for yourself. I'm hoping to go to the track with my new exhaust system next week and kick some butt!
