Default Can this be tuned

I bought a fast 90/90 set up for my 03 procharged and cammed z06 with full exhaust. And the throttle body plate has a hole drilled into it. Can the car still be tuned with this? Or do i need to buy a new plate or even t/b? Thanks mike

Fill with a pop rivet. Find one closest to the hole in the TB or open the hole to fit the rivet....works like a charm. If you don't have to open the hole, can actually be done on the car. Will change the base air flow (RAF) substantially as well as the IAC setting if you have one.
