Question Single blade TB

Is there any real power gains with the single blade TB to what the cost of it is?

The guys at Truckin magazine gained a few ponies with their Project Lightning this month...

4 hp for a K&N filter
8hp cutting the air inlet inside the fender
14hp single blade throttle body
16hp for a switch chip
0 hp for exhaust.

The last one puzzles me, because in an earlier issue, they gained 28hp and 20tq with the Bassani headers,x-pipe,and catback.

I noticed better throttle response and more blower wine after i installed it.I gained around 1/2 to 1 tenth at the track!I think with better aftermarket flowing mods like a bigger mass-air and better intercooler we will notice even more with it.Just my .02 cents!
