I got the TB the plenum and the chip flash. Basically the whole thing.

Sounds great! I have a BMC air filter and fabspeed cat-back pipes too. Also have Pedro's engine mount in. They were all on the car prior to throttle body and made a little sound difference. Car sound when you put your foot down is deeper and louder, less jap bike. No drone at all though.

I had 270hp with those mods so I'm expecting something in the 290hp range when I go to the dyno Thurs/Fri. Butt dyno says 20-30hp. Fingers crossed. I also put the BBI under-drive pulley on at the same time as the TB.

Car has 55,000 miles.

So base 264hp (no Dyno verification)

Dyno with Cat-back exhaust, BMC, Pedro's engine mount and Technotorque2 270hp

TB etc and under-drive pulley ????

So my first Dyno didn't tell me much as I never thought of doing a base line run. Hp base, could have been lower or lack of chipping the car wasn't taking advantage of the initial mods.

Now however it should show what increase the TB & UD pulley with chipping makes.
