I got my t/b in from Mark at Lightning force Friday. It is awsome. I love the extra Throttle response, and seat of the pants says maybe a little more hp under the hood. Mark was awsome to deal with, and I plan on dealing with him more.

Still blows me away that this mod is not worth more hp. The new T/B flows so much more air.

Where is the bottle-neck in the system? It's definetly not the TB. If it was you would see a gain.

Bottle neck must be in the lower intake and heads. People have modded everything in between. We have probably come pretty close to reaching the maximum power with out either going internal or adding a spray setup.

I maybe wrong(won't be the first or the last) but, it was explained to me that the biggest bottleneck was the exhaust valves.

Within reason Fast Gator. I'm not about to port out the heads to put 3" valves in the heads.

 

I don't know who ever said there was NO HP gain from the oval TB. BABolt dyno tested one and had 5-7 HP increase, though not much, still an increase. It's just a little more added to the rest of it, every little bit counts.
