BBK TB ?'s

I was reading online and in the MM&FF and they are both saying you can install the new BBK TB with out a reflash? How is this possible? I thought tat you can't even install a CAI kit with out a reflash?

Also, I am thinking of doing black ghost style stripes on my black GT, anyone ever saw this done? I already ordered the fr500 wheels in black so I figure I will keep up the theme.

It's possible to run without a tune under normal driving conditions. Ive run w/o tune on my CAI just to see what would happen.

It won't produce the power it could and it could trip an engine light/safe mode.

Your best bet is to tune first. Trust me. SCT or Diablosport are pretty much the way to go.

Fox is the place I bought mine from. I didn't have to deal with their support so I don't know about it.

I can tell you that I did get a DSP for $100 under what most want for it.... So... Yeah

RE: BBK TB ?'s

with my new throttle body i didn't run a tune with it and it was fine but if you want to romp on it you will need to get it tuned cause at higher rpms the stock tune trips the check engine light the only reason why i haven't tuned mine yet is cause here in england it is 3 hrs drife to the nearest dyno so next week end i should have it all sorted out
