few little extras to the car over winter im looking into doing a little extra to my car this winter i am thinking about getting a ported throttle body and a 85 mm maf sensor wondering what everyone thinks of that the car has heads and cam on it and i need to get it retuned anyways so i thought with those 2 things and the tune i should pick up about 15 hps any info would be nice also wondering what everyone thinks about pulleys as well(underdrive overdrive)

Keep your stock maf,unless your making big power you can't beat the stocker,I was told by a lot of people to leave it alone,maybe go with ported ends but I would research a lot on the maf ,your tuner will thank you,and p&p your stock tb is pretty easy I would say do it yourself, its not worth it to spend 100 to 150 dollars to have someone do it for you to pick up 2 to 3 hp,I can tell you some pretty easy steps to do it, or if you live in northern ohio I could do it for you,I don't know what kind of setup your running but if you have decent heads and a pretty good cam I would say a fast setup would net you the best gains, would buy it used though they get pricey,

But if your just looking to do something small on the induction side p&p stock tb is a easy mod,and if you don't have a cai maybe get a ssra,I think the maf,bellow etc is all good up to 500 hp,I could be wrong but when I was doing bolt ons a few people told me that. Well good luck man,and I think materials for the tb only cost me 30 and I spent about 5 hours on it but I polished the outside to a mirror finish ,God bless bro
