Default Throttle Body And Maf ??????
I Have 99 T/a And Want To Replace The T/b And Maf. Is It Worth Doing If Im Going To Eventually Replace The Intake Manifold Later On Down The Road With An Ls6 Manifold?

it is worth getting a ported one. you can feel the difference in throttle response from a stocker to a ported one.

You will gain power even with the LS1 intake.

^^ its a good way to hurt performance. Unless your familiar with airflow and have an extra TB laying around in case you mess up. It not a great idea. For $69.50 you can have it professionaly done. Its good money spent, comes with a free bypass kit as well
