Product Description

The **BBK 17801** is a high-performance throttle body intake designed to replace both the throttle body and upper plenum in 1996-2004 Mustang GT 4.6L engines. By combining a 73 mm throttle body with a matched plenum in a single integrated piece, airflow is significantly improved, enhancing throttle response and increasing power.

This component is CNC-machined from a cast 356-aluminum block for strength and precision, and features double-sealed bearings and an O-ringed shaft for smooth, reliable operation. Its powder-coated finish not only looks great but also resists wear. Installation is straightforward, and the part is CARB-exempt under Executive Order D-245-26, making it a powerful yet legal upgrade for many street applications.
