That's weird, me and a buddy of mine tried it on 2 different cars and the same thing happened, now it could be because they had 58mm TB's on their cars so I should try it on a stock TB and see if that works

that's really weird, maybe its just a specific brand. They both had the same TB's on them, I'll try it on a stock car or any other aftermarket TB. This is odd
