I guess this is why we still have people buying them and then coming on the board within a week saying the car is broke!

Throttle bodies are useless unless you're pushing big number 550+whp. You'll gain nothing from a bigger throttle body on a normally aspirated engine.

also consider a TB, they go hand in hand with a cold air

Over 600HP and I think that my BBK TB was the worst investment ever. Even after tuning I oly see 19HP gains at best! Not even enough to feel in this combo! If I did it all over again, it would be the last resort, squeeze all I can out of the motor mod!

he has over 600hp and added the bbk TB then he got the 19hp gain.. very low percentage of gain there.

It would be like adding 9HP to a near stock GT. you would never notice it!

Good luck when the wife finds out [&:]
Seriously I split it 50/50 ($1800)with my wife so she couldn't say a word about anything I spent my half on. Of course I couldn't say anything about her spending either. [&o]
