i need to get some more power outta my 5.0

its having some trouble running down the highway with my mud tires n doesnt wanna run about 68mph smoothly

i was thinking about a throttle Body replacement and was wondering if that it is worth the time/money (gotta remove it anyway to get to the TPS so i figured get a proformance one while im at it??)

if its worth it what size?

n should i do a intake manifold upgrade to?

anyone go ideas for some more power?

thanks in advance

Both the throttle body and the Intake are reliable ways to increase power but the intake really only shows its true potential when mods like haeds or a cam are done. For a stock 5.0 I would start at the exhaust amd then a K&N filter kit. Also if your engine is fuel injected a Tuner or chip of some kind would work wonders. It all depends on time and budget.

Just noticed you already have the intake and exhaust. then go with tthe throttle body and Tuner. With all the mods your Bronco will do a good impresion of a 5.8.

I found this one online at summitracing.com. It is a good example of what to look for, in fact it is a good one to consider getting. It is reasonably priced and works with all factory parts and most aftermarket accessories.

Just in case you were interested in the chip/module This is the one I ran in my '90 Bronco. It helped a great deal from mid to top end. Especially on a particular Hillclimb I always run.
