RE: "***WHAT U GOT***"
2003 Grey GT 5 Speed
SLP "Loud Mouth" Exhaust, Underdrive Pulleys, and K&N Cold air kit.
Next up: is an X-pipe and headers (SLP).... and a short throw shifter, and...... the list goes on....
No HP, No times, mostly because the lack of resources. Would love to get on a dyno, or to the track to see what the car can do.

What are you getting, a gold plated T/B ????
If you are paying over 400 dollars for a T/B and Plenum, bend over and grab your ankles.
Most combos run for around 350 bucks, and thats with a (oversized IMO) 75MM.
MM&FF dynoed an improvement of like 10 HP on a stock setup with the plenum alone. T/B and plenum on a stock or mild setup should give you anywhere from 10 to 20 HP. The only T/B i have seen that acutally robs HP is a 75mm on a stock engine. Its simply to big. A 70MM should be fine.
HOWEVER, I have to say before getting a T/B and plenum, I would get: Gears, filter box, mufflers.
