Default good deal?

there is a guy wanting to give me 100 dollars a set of silver ponys and a 65mm throttle body for my set of chrome ponys. Is this a good deal? will the bigger thottle body do much for my car. my car is pretty stock with just cai, bbk headers and h pipe,flomaster mufflers and 24# injectors.

i agree with fivepointohh, the TB wont do much, you should get one when you do heads, and also a MAF that is a similar size and is tuned to your 24lb injectors.. why do you have 24s now anyway?

and, do you dont like your chrome ponys or what? I wouldnt do it, unless you need the money, then at least you will have the TB for the future
