TB Air Foil or get a 52mm
#2
i had the foil on my 48mm it seemed OK, didnt notice much SOTP feel. I just went to a 52mm and i have LT headers with a ram air hood. i was told it would be more effective to have the 52mm withthe ram air and LT headers..

With your mods so far honestly I wouldn't even bother with either. I'd personally spend the money on something that would make more of a difference. The stock TB's are good to about 450hp or so.

**** man i just did a quick search and found this.
"The September, 2002 edition of GM HIGH–TECH
PERFORMANCE magazine reported a 5.8 horsepower increase after installing this
Holley airfoil kit on a stock 1994 Camaro Z28 LT1, called “The Grape Of Wrath”. "
from exotic performance parts plus not sure if i can post the link but i just searched "throttle body airfoil" and a link within the first three said 93-97 f-body. for 50 bucks 5.8 rwhp is a damn good deal to me. when else do you get horse power for cheaper than $10/1HP.

Yeah, that's also true. And when you can get them for around $30, I guess it'd be worth a shot.

Airfoil
I have dynoed cars including mine in the past with the T/B Airfoil and saw 0 gains to a max of 2hp, and that doesnt mean that is actually gained 2, You can make runs on a dyno and have X amount of % difference...Of course there was one guy said that he gained 30 RWHP with an airfoil !!!

Now with forced induction you can actually gain a pound or two of extra boost, at least this was a warning from procharger...
Well again if anyone is interested I have mine for sale (pics in the for sale section)

I was going to pick up a 52mm TB, since the stock TB is 48mm and the intake is 52mm. I decided to wait and save my money, eventually down the road when I get LE2 heads and probably the GM847 I will get the intake ported to 58mm and pick up a 58mm TB. Until then I dont think I need it not feeding bigger heads or cam yet.
Too bad you live on the other end of the state or we could be LT1 buddies...lol
