Post NEW TB oh my god!!!!!!!!!!

You know I didn't think that this new TB would make that much of a difference on my truck, but let me tell you guys who don't have one yet. Its like driving a new truck again. The response is so worth the money for the TB. The new sound from the blower and the Bassani is worth it. I just didn't think it would do that much but it did. The great thing is that it only took me about 15 minutes to install it. If you got the extra money laying around (which if you own a L you probably don't) get one of these just for the fun factor. There's got to be some kind of performance increase, even if its only a half a tenth.

Spiro and JDM, thanks guys. Can't wait for that pulley. So whats next boys???????

Got mine from BaBolt but he no longer makes them. It cost about $400 and I installed myself with no problem. The install took about 15 minutes and I am not a mechanic

As far as I can tell from the JDM section at SVTPerf, they are sold out of the TBs.

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing...?

Your best bet would be to ask spiro (JDM) about them on svtperformance. He usally responds daily. Or call this number 732) 863-7244. Thats JDM's phone number.

Leave a message for JDM anyway. Some of the guys might not follow thru with the payment, if not they will make more soon. Lloyd

Jim, where did you get yours, how much did it cost, and who did you have install it? I feel another wallet levitating experience coming on.
