7-10 HP for $179.....UDPs are worth it. Like said, your sixxer might not see the gains and might not be worth it but a GT benefits nicely

I just ordered and installed a new BBK throttle body and Steeda UDPs and both, separately and together, seem to add some power. Not much, and there are defiantly other places to get the power, but I'm pretty happy with the mods.

Me too.

Don't you have a GT500 TB. How does that differ from the BBK 62mm?

True, it's not really comparable to the V6, but I've had it installed for about 3 weeks. I idled a little high for the first week or so, but it leveled out and seems just fine now. No problems at all.

what kinda benefits would it render a sixxer? i was told by a performance shop that i would basically get 1 hp per thousand rpms, would that be about right?
