Re: throttle body (pizzaman34)
I just installed a 52mm throttle-body on my L98.
It snorted and popped until I set the TPS at 7.4V instead of the 5.4V recommended. Yeah, it pulls a little harder but I won't notice all the potential until I up my fuel pressure. With all my porting, big TB, K&N, long-tubes with 3" inlet and outlet cats and 3" pipe to the rear (no mufflers), I'm getting the air in and the air out but need more fuel to make the pop.
