freeze_dk I am dissatisfied with my current employment situation Donating Members 8,610 Member For: 18y 9m 9d Gender: Male Posted 28/12/13 01:05 AM Share Posted 28/12/13 01:05 AM (edited) If the mechanic said to change the throttle body then ill go elsewhere, standard are more then enoughGet rid of the throttle body and front turbo housing, not needed. Also the surge tank unless your chasing 350+What power you after?

shaunjennifer21 Member 95 Member For: 14y 5d Posted 28/12/13 01:11 AM Author Share Posted 28/12/13 01:11 AM im not really sure on a power figure I'm after but maybe around the 350-400. it'll only be the standard motor.efi place said that's why my car stalls all the time so instead of buying a standard TB I thought id just go all out and get a ss induction one. I can get a brand new one for $400. doesn't the front housing upgrade help with faster spool up time and has anti surge ?
