Tell us what you have, Tony, and we'll tell you what to do. There are tricks that cost nothing thatget you a few, and some very cheap tricks to get you some more.Do those before you ask about spending real money. It's hard to believe that your car is completely untouched in that regard.

The chips are non productive..no offence but I wouldn't install one in my car if it was handed to me. Bump the timing yourself...get the 5-10 the chip would make and save the 125.

As for the TB and spacer....new can be had for the same price regardless of size...

I run the Professional products Tb on my car it includes gaskets and new TPS..can move to polished version for another 10$$
