Gotts Mod?

Ok, I just finished doing this to my truck and I have a couple questions. Now mind you, I havent been but on a 10 minute test ride but here goes.

1. What exactly is this mod supposed to do..more air flow...but.....?

2. So far only thing I've noticed, is when Im running about 1500rpm...I gas on it and it will rev up to about 3k before it takes off...but there is more of a feel of get up and go..but if anyone of you did this to an 04-08 ....did you get this sort of "stall" when laying the foot down at lower rpms?

I did this mod and to tell you the truth I saw no value to it at first. Then I added the K&N replacement air filter and my throttle response seemed better. As for mpg, after 1,000 miles maybe...maybe slightly better hwy mileage.

I'm not sure why you have a throttle lag? Try and disconnect your battery for 30 sec, recheck your install and make sure things are secure then try again. I didn't have any lag when I did this mod.
