RE: throttle body

I agee anthing free is worth it, but if it only going to gain 10hp, then it is not worth my time to pick it up and install it.

RE: throttle body

its nothing that you will feel when you hit the accel. however, with the right mods. "i.e. h/c/i" it will help later. think of it like a person with sinus problems. its hard to breath all stop up in the nose. more air in more out! headers, exhaust, cold air intake, throttle body, and intake manifold now you just got rid of you head cold. now can smell the roses.
