switching to Flowmaster muffler (actualy you might be able to feel the car being slower)

Cold air intake kits

Ok all that's worth a good 20 rwhp. Why? Half parts, and half tune. Everything is always in the tune. If you can't feel 20 rwhp then it's time to hit the gym because chances are your car is overworked and sick of hauling your fat, 350lb *** around, which is why it's no WONDER you can't feel anything. You probably couldn't even feel a 250 shot if it froze your dick off.

you are completely missing the whole point. with those individual mods you couldnt feel a diffrence. with all those mods you MIGHT feel a diffrence. When i had a 160 stat, a tune and a lid i ran slower than i did bone stock, it felt exactly the same.

anyways, my fat 180lb *** could only get my bone stock automatic with 130,000 miles on to 13.2

Definitely not true.
I can swap the 85mm SLP hunk thats on my car now for an 85mm truck OR Z06 MAF and I can see the grams/sec. change and the a/f gets all screwy....SLP modifies their MAFs with some sort of resistor.

What lid and bellow are you using? Is your lid trimmed or is this common.

All you guys have no idea what you are talking about.

I definately felt a difference with both my TB, and MAF, on separate occations. Was it huge? No. Was it tangible? YES.

It's all about AREA UNDER THE CURVE, not a meaningless peak number.

A MAF sensor AND ported TB gain area under the curve, THAT's why you can feel throttle response pick up with both modifications if you know what to look for.
