i just put it on there...ass dyno says yes, a little more throttle response, and definitley more noise it whistles like a turbo

btw, always check your vacuum lines kids...i left the main one to the TB off (from PCV)...sounded like i had a monster cam in it

ive never heard of anyone saying this, i dunno if your refering to only v6 throttle bodies because i dont know diddly about v6 tb's but i know ls1 tb are very important thing to do and most say its about 7-12 rwhp mainly because it comes into a smaller hole than the tb blade is i believe the blade is 78mm but the hole actually comes down to about 75mm then opens up again to the blade and thats what u smooth out and stuff to use its full potential and smooth out flow, agian i dunno if u were refering to v6 applications only but if not there u go,
Yeah, I ws referring to the 3.8 engines. Maybe I was wrong tho... I should see.... hmmm

oh and kasey, i bet i will...too bad i need tuning for it cause of the stupid MAF sensor, which means i cant put it on yet, which also means ill get a full tune at the same time, so i wont be able to tell if it made a diff
Got the name of a tuning place?
