Of course it helps airflow. Whether or not it is anything that noticeable i dont know. I am planning on getting some flow time for a couple of my tb's and that is one thing i want to try. Not for looks, i mean unless you have a clear lid and no maf no one will ever see inside there.

How much of a difference would I be looking at with my mods (in sig)? I have an ls1 intake now but the new pnp tb would go back on with an ls6 intake. hp and tq #'s Thanks

Thanks again.

with a cam and pretty much full bolt ons you should pick up 10+ hp and about the same torque. Like i said i have a full bolt on ms3 cammed car and picked up about .2 and 1.5 mph. which is probably about 15ish hp. Thats only with a ls1 intake and i think theres another 15-20 with a ls6 manifold. so switching from a stock ls1 tb and intake to a ls6 and ported tb you could see 25-30 hp.

well thats kind of comparing apples to oranges. The 90/90 is a great combo but costs $1200+. You could have a ported tb and ls6 intake for under $400. The fast 90/90 might gain 10-20 hp depending on you setup but is it worth $800 more. If you have a bolt on car a ported tb/ls6 intake would work best, and if you have a heads/cam car then the fast 90 might be something to look into. Tim

If you think about it speed divers shave everything to smooth out their bodies for airflow.

Water is denser but the airflow is much faster and in a tighter area.

BTW nice product!! I got mine yesterday and it is GREAT looking. Great price and I have never had anything shipped to me so quickly. To bad you don't sell anything I can buy!
