Potz TB's are great pieces. I'm running one myself. His ebay pages usually say what to do with your stock TB.

I did cam and headers at the same time so I don't know if the TB alone makes a difference.

I did my lid and Potz TB at the same time, and the throttle response was a lot better. Not sure how much of that I can attribute to the TB vs. the lid, but I know it helped.

I also didn't send him a core, had a friend who wanted my TB for the 5.3 he's building. I ended up paying around $90 without a core.
