What mods do you have? Unless heavily modded the 78 MM TB will probally do more bad than good. Flows sound good but 90% of the guys here will tell you that flows and x pipes don't mix. The reason why is because flows are a chambered muffler. I was also going to buy flows and a o/r x pipe set up but when I went to You Tube and heard a couple gt sound clips of flows and a x-pipe it sounded real loud and as every one here will say raspy. LT's will be good. I got my shorties to cheap to pass over but I am satisfied, with the sound and performance. Hopefully this helps....

The only thing that's worth a midget's crap would be the exhaust, mainly due to the L/T's. The TB/Plenum will give you some throttle response and an aftermarket intake manifold won't net you much on a mostly stock motor.
