Re: Throttle Body Bypass (geoc)
This Mod is a waste of time, I did it than returned it back to stock. Did not like the look and could not see any gain. some things dont do much even if the seller says it does but each to their own :yesnod:

Re: Throttle Body Bypass (gbm)
I don't beleive that this mod will gain you any hp. However, I do beleive that it could save you from losing some horses in certain situations. In these situations you will probably not even notice one way or the other. I consider it in the same class as a lower temp t-stat. The other day when my car was all heatsoaked I dynoed it and lost a few ponies to knock retard. I beleive anything I could have done to keep things cooler would have helped prevent that. As far as the kit, ya it's bs, but some people don't want to waste the time trying to find the proper fitting pieces and would rather just pay a few bucks. jmho

I tryed this you have two different sizes, a hose did not work out as one side was real tight and the other was way loose and had to really tighten the hose clamp down to make it stop leaking. I put it back to stock (waste of time) :cuss
