Accufab throttle body on.

Special thanks to Xplicit.:thumbsup:

I know a lot of you have already done this mod, but I just wanted to say this thing is sweet. Throttle response is instant and boy can I hear what's going on in the blower now.:thumbsup: All kinds of cool sucking noises and the blower is definitely louder, me likes.:-D According to the stock boost gauge I picked up some boost and it comes on earlier too. Excellent.:beer:

Couple of pics.

I managed to get .976V for the TPS. Disconnected the battery and took her for a drive. We'll see how the idle is after a few drive cycles.

Thanks. I don't know if I picked up much, but it really feels much better.

Boy is that upper pulley huge.

It should be huge, remember "It's all stock and it's staying that way."

It's hard to tell, the fan was pretty loud in that clip. She definately makes more noise now, even at idle. Sounds like a giant vacuum cleaner now.:-D

Good move Dan, :thumbsup: you probably picked up between 20 and 25 RWHP at 6400 based on what I've seen. Of course, one of the other major benefits is the response time - when you want boost, you get boost and I mean right now! It's instant, full boost.

I can hear my supercharger whining through my TB and CAI even without boost at lower speeds. Any little twitch of the throttle causes the car to make animal-like snorting or gasping sounds. Finally, the beautiful fit and finish are the kickers to an awesome mod. Enjoy!:beer:

Yeh, isn't it great. And the sounds are definitely worth the price of admission! I went with the polished plenum. As a matter of fact I'm going to use my polishing cloth to give it more of a mirror shine.

just curious, how much did the TB set you back?

No power inlet how did you order it without it? I had to buy the whole thing.

They come with the power inlet/plenum -- either powder coated or polished. I paid $605. for my polished Accufab TB/Plenum.
