Default Throttle Body

Does any one know of a good Throttle Body to go with on an 06 GT Auto. I've been looking into the Granatelli Throttle Body but im not quite sure on it though. If any one else has any suggestions please Help me out.

Do a search on throttle body. Shouldn't be hard to find plenty of threads on just exactly how little ( if any ) gains people get out of them. Pretty much the only folks that are going to tell you how wonderful they are are the people selling them.

i speak from first hand experience as well, but with different results. i got sizeable gains from just bolting one on. HOWEVER, and this is a big however, i do not recommend diving into a new TB unless you are a)willing to put up with crazy idles, or b)have a tuner who can get those fu(king crazy idles out. i don't drive it as much now, but if i did i doubt i could stand it, even if it did gain me 11hp and 13tq
