So I was planning on getting the BBK throttle body based on a few magazine reviews of it. I searched the forums for advice on it and didn't really turn up anything. I've owned my baby for over a year now, but I'm really new to the DIY scene and figured this would be something I could do on my own for cheap. One of the reviews I read of the BBK products said that the A/F ratio was unchanged with the TB and CAI installed (both BBK). The only thread I've read on here was full of only negative things regarding getting an aftermarket TB, but like I said, I've read only positive things elsewhere. I'd appreciate some feedback from anyone who's installed this or someone to point me to the appropriate thread regarding it.

This is the thread I was referring to above:

I have personally tried a new TB for about 15 minuties. Put it on, dynoed it, zero HP gain, took it right off.

....and there are a lot of posts from guys on here who tried the throttle body and had all sorts of driveability problems. I know that Sleeper05, MusiccityGT, and I think Hawgman have all tried the larger TBs and had problems. I could be wrong, but I think it was Musiccity who was offering to give his away due to the headaches it caused him?

Here's a couple of threads
