I bought that thing when it first came out. I felt like i got ripeed off. Because its just a little thin cup peice of plastic for 50 bucks. It probaly costed them 25cents for them to make. I didnt feel any gain and took it out and gave it to my buddy to try out. I dont know if he put it in yet. I wasted 50 bucks on that stuff. I would have been more satisfied buying a set of spark plug wires for that price.

So far we’ve gotten people who don’t like the looks/quality of it, and no seat of the pants increase. Do we have anyone with track time or dyno numbers? Everyone one says to port & polish the TB, but it’s this close to the same thing? Why would one be good and the other not?

Well....decided to try it out. Went to the 1/8 mile track today and ran 7.58 best time ever. Last Sat my best was 7.70 the only difference is the TB insert and the temp was about 5 degrees cooler. Not bad! Even before the track I noticed better throttle responce. It is worth the 50 bucks to me.
