Being my 1st Vette and 1st "modern" performance car i got sucked in early. I have K&N with a purchased open lid. I didn't want to cut the stock one in case i sell. I got a Granatelli MAF used so atleast i didn't pay full retail. I have an LT4 knock module i have yet to install. It is used/cheap. I suspected my fpr was going south so i replaced it with an Aeromotive adjustable. My 1st "real" mod is my 411's i guess, but yah, i got sucked in at 1st. I'm learning.

Default Newly Invented TB 4 Sale - Guaranteed Huge HP Improvement

No. You got it all wrong. The new name for the airfoil will now be called, "A horsepower enhancing torque amplifying airflow magnifier."

Sounds catchy doesn't it? I think I'll fabricate a piece of metal to fit in the TB and advertise it with its new name. I'll make a fortune. It's all in the name. I'm now taking orders if people wish to waste, I mean wisely spend their hard-earned money on a proven horsepower booster. I guarantee you will realize gains up to 50 HP. This newly developed quality unit has been tested for countless hours and is 100% fully guaranteed to do exactly what it states. If you're not happy with the unit, but I know you will be immediately impressed by the seat of the pants results, but if for some reason you're not, I will completely refund your money, minus a 50% restocking fee, plus a 25% handling fee, plus a 15% shipping fee. So you see, you have nothing to lose by trying out the new, "horsepower enhancing torque amplifying airflow magnifier."

Be the first one on your block to get one and be a proud owner of this highly specialized technical piece of machinery. Order quickly as we expect stock to quickly diminish as many orders are expected to be received. You can't go wrong with this. Our company name, "Faux Pas R Us" is well known and is well revered. Go ahead, you know you want that extra HP.
