don't bother w/ a throttle body unless your going F/I

considering that nobody here has seriously weighed benefits from naturally aspirated mods such as camming and porting; the throttlebody could definitely provide gains with these modifications. and to answer the question, I don't know, but I'm sure that since a rubber connector is usually used to connect the pipe to the throttlebody, it shouldn't be an issue.

somebody (not on this forum) did SSM stage 2, and didnt get much out of it. he ran 230rwhp, so for the price, a lot of people rather go for f/i

yeah, um. that's 50 horse more to the wheels.

if you were to put an aggressive cam in along with long tube headers, etc, you would have a hell of a lot more.

you are clearly not aware or do not care of prices. also, he had an intake and tune. when he baselined, he got about 195rwhp. that is a gain of 35rwhp. for $3k that is terrible (sorry gash). also, doug from b*ma chips and powerhouse both basically said that there is no use to get more aggressive on the stock cams while being n/a

if ur going to do heads and cams, u need to open up the intake manifold up some more too in order to see some better gains, and a larger squirters too would help out too

exactly. and nobody said anything about cost. I didn't say it would be cheap, so quit trying to be so pretentious.

if you did go f/i... would a new tb help? what size?
