do a search on here, many threads about them and why to stay away from them....the best aftermarket one is the GT500 kit from JDM...or leave the one you got on there.

Aftermarket T/B's are Russian Roulette. The factory T/B is good to 450+ h/p. The GT500 T/B kit referred to by howarmat is an all inclusive deal. Comes with an adapter plate for the T/B to manifold and to adapt to the CAI tube. They make very little difference on a N/A setup unless you have major mods. They make nice gains on F/I engines. Save your $$ and your sanity. Been there, done that.
