Default best mod i've made yet!! no hp, though

i got tired of my new ls1 ws6 not being so intuitive as my old camaro tbi. so i simply allowed the spring on the throttle body to rest on the body instead of the detent, releasing the spring around 1/4 turn. now i no longer need to force some reaction out of the car, it simply does it itself, intuitively.

i think there is also a reduction in the pulsation in the pedal as well. i am aware of an increased possibility of stuck throttle due to less spring pressure, but i like it anyway!!

He said you dont try...then the little **** you icon. danf1000 you shouldnt get mad if people think it isnt a smart thing to do because it isnt. Thats like slapping on a 300 shot on stock motor and say its cool when I spray....see what I mean.

Acutally I'd say it's a little worse, as a 300 shot will just fry your motor, while this "mod" will put you or someone else into a wall.

I thought the "taking a big **** before going to the track" mod was the best non/hp mod.

Seriously though,
Not a wise move. A stuck throttle is no fun for anyone...as stated earlier especially the person/tree/inmovable object in front of you.

Hit the weights.

If you can't overcome the power of that HUGE spring you have problems......

I think tu no gustas is actually "you dont like?", then followed by the cool icon and yea I dont think most people like the idea because its not safe nor intelligent but thats up to you. Good luck with it.

Well if something bad happens to him then it was his own fault. He likes it. That is cool. If someone else is injured then the consequences will follow. **** happens every day. People complain about population and then they complain about saving lives. Pick one.
