You dont need a 58mm it wont give you much gain on a fairly stock LT1

The pacesetter LT w/ Y pipe would give you about 15+- hp

Aftermarket MAF is more bad than good.

Dont waist ur $ on a 58mm tb until you absolutely need one. Get a good gear for your car that will help alot. Headers and exhaust with free up some hp, a electric water pump will free up hp, Dont get a after market MAF i have heard they are a pain in the *** to tune when you do a C/H/I. Is your a4 or m6 ? if auto you get a stall,

I agree with using the stock TB.. it will flow PLENTY! Even for a H/C/I car...
I Couldnt believe the difference LT and ORY made on my car! Dropped .3-.4 tenths!

Put those Headers on there with a Pacesetter ORY to match it($129, I think) and get a GOOD catback(if all you have is a flowmaster muffler, If the flowmaster IS a catback, then leave it if you enjoy the sound)
