1996 – 2004 BBK 4.6 Mustang Throttle Intake
Gain power with a 1996 – 2004 BBK 4.6 Mustang Throttle Intake, which starts around $250.00. One of the most unique components in the Mustang aftermarket is the BBK Performance Throttle Intake kit. This throttle/intake combo fuses the throttle body with the intake elbow to improve performance on 4.6 Two-Valve modular Ford V8 engines found on 1996 to 2004 Mustangs and other Ford vehicles.

This is an awesome component since it allows you to replace the restrictive factory intake parts with an attractive, high-flow induction unit. BBK Performance offers the Throttle Intake in 73 mm and 78 mm versions and with either a Charcoal Titanium Powdercoat finish or a polished finished for a few more dollars. Each kit comes with all the gaskets and hardware for a quick and simple installation on your Ford Mustang modular engine. Best of all, you can expect between a 12-15 horsepower increase at the wheels.
Increase power and performance with a BBK Performance Throttle Intake
The 1996 – 2004 BBK 4.6 Mustang Throttle Intake increases the airflow to your intake manifold to increase low-rpm power for improved throttle response, as well as extra power in the upper rpm range. This equates to more fun around town and better performance on track. We recommend the 73 mm unit for mild mods, and the 78 mm unit for more serious combinations. This is a must-have item once you’ve added nitrous or forced induction.
In addition to great looks, BBK Performance assembles each Throttle Intake from strong 356 aluminum castings, which is then CNC-machined and fitted with high-quality mechanical parts such as die-stamped throttle linkages, double-sealed bearings and an O-ringed throttle shaft. Plus, all BBK throttle bodies are designed, manufactured and assembled in the USA. What you’ll notice is smooth throttle actuation and durability that meets or exceeds the original standards.
Increasing airflow to your engine is relatively easy way to increase horsepower and torque, and BBK offers many parts that allow you to find this power right in your driveway. For maximum flow, we recommend pairing your Throttle Intake with a Cold-Air Intake and exhaust headers with a high-flow exhaust. Additional mods common to 1996 – 2004 4.6 Mustangs are underdrive pulleys, a recalibrated factory computer using a hand-held flash tuner, and numerically higher rear end gear ratios.
