Ford Ranger Explorer 4.0 OHV V6 66mm Throttle Body 90-01 - Reconditioned (2023)

FAQs

How much HP does a BBK throttle body add? ›

The average naturally aspirated vehicle will gain 10-12 horsepower and boosted applications typically pick up even more. BBK Throttle Intake starts with a CNC machined 356 aluminum casting to ensure a perfect fit on your 1996-2004 Mustang GT.

The stock LX and GT 5.0L throttle body is a single bore unit measuring 58mm in diameter.

This throttle body will increase airflow to your engine adding more horsepower and torque to the wheels. Our BBK 90mm Hemi throttle bodies are CNC machined from high quality 356 aluminum castings to ensure perfect OEM quality and fit every time.

Gains from a throttle body can be dependent on modifications. Generally speaking, anytime a throttle body is added, there will be some added horsepower. The amounts can range from 5-25 HP depending on what other modifications are done to the engine.

There are several factors to consider when selecting throttle body diameter, power output, RPM, cylinder head design, engine capacity, injector position and throttle body position along the inlet path.

For pre-2005 vehicles, a tune is not required with the addition of a new throttle body. For 2005+ vehicles, a tune is recommended for throttle body changes & updates. Please Note: Some throttle bodies require a tune for installation.

A bigger throttle body can only suck so much air if restricted by your cold air intake. Other things that effect if the bigger throttle body will truly make more power is ported heads, cam selection along with exhaust setup.

When the throttle body gets dirty, it has a direct effect on how smoothly the engine operates. Signs indicating a problem include rough idling, jumpy or sluggish acceleration, poor fuel economy, and stalling.

This is a throttle body, and it's what controls the speed of your vehicle. You see, if you depress on the accelerator, either a motor or a cable is going to operate this lever, and what it's going to do is open these throttle plates in here.

When it comes to improving mileage, the fuel filter is only where it begins. Over time, your engine's throttle body collects debris that can make your engine idle rough and decrease fuel economy.

Does throttle body increase mpg? ›

Consider having your throttle body cleaned to help improve fuel mileage. Ensuring your spark plugs are changed as often as recommended can also help increase your fuel mileage. An old or warn spark plug will not produce a powerful spark which will lead to poor combustion and a lack of power.

Cold Air Intakes are said to improve your vehicle's performance by 5-20 horsepower. This number will vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle. While this isn't enough power to put you back in your seat, it will give your car or truck a little pep in its step.

BBK Performance throttle bodies create quicker throttle response and better acceleration. This throttle body will increase airflow to your engine adding more horsepower and torque to the wheels.

With larger tubing and smoother bends, you get more exhaust flow, freeing up the extra power held back by restrictive manifolds. BBK testing has shown gains up to 30+ horsepower with supporting mods! These headers are finished in a titanium ceramic coating for lifelong looks under the hood of your Mustang.

Does a throttle controller increase horsepower? No, the throttle controller does not increase horsepower. The electronic throttle control is designed to improve your acceleration times by increasing the performance of your engine.

In addition to increasing acceleration performance, performance throttle bodies can also boost overall horsepower. This gives the engine increased power and torque, which may be helpful in situations such as towing. Commonly, adding an aftermarket throttle body can increase engine power by 15 hp to 25 hp.

When the throttle body is not operating effectively, one of the tell-tale signs is poor or low idling. This includes the engine stalling after coming to a stop, a very low idle after starting, or stalling when the accelerator pedal is pressed down rapidly.

Upgrading an entire fuel system typically involves replacing: The throttle bodies: Bigger throttle bodies can provide greater throttle response and increased power. Fuel injectors: High-flow fuel injectors can improve the air/fuel mixture for more efficient combustion.

While a stock cast iron exhaust manifold will keep your sound contained, upgrading to 304 stainless steel high-performance headers shows what your ride can do. While aftermarket headers won't make your car louder, they will improve your overall sound quality.

Which headers add horsepower? ›

Medium and long-tube headers allow an engine to make more horsepower at high rpm.

The headers will give you 8 to 15 additional HP gains, and come packaged with gaskets and the hardware needed for installation. Performance-tuned and engine-matched with performance gains at the lower to midrange RPM highway speeds. Perfect for lowered or raised pickups and tow vehicles.

Horsepower refers to how much power your engine can produce in a certain amount of time. So, the more horsepower that your engine has, the faster you will be able to go.

A throttle response controller can help your car's engine respond more quickly to your input, which can help you avoid accidents. You might be wondering if throttle controllers damage your engine or vehicle. The simple answer is no.

It improves acceleration for all vehicles with an electronic gas pedal. It catches the signal between accelerator pedal and control unit. Instead of the manufacturer's signal, the PedalBox sends a modified signal to the control unit, helping it to eliminate any lag or time delay when accelerating.

Throttle body spacers do not affect overall performance or delivery of air / fuel. Since these spacers have little bearing on performance, a tune is not required after installation.
