Just wondering if it would be worth it for my setup. From my searches, it's worthless if you're N/A, but may be beneficial if you're supercharged.

In short, yes.

How much boost you running?
Motor forged?

On low boost (6-9psi) It isn't worth the $$$$ you pay for it to me.
Now when you start cramming a whole lot of air through the motor then I find it's worth it.
Think of the motor as it is, an air pump! until you start moving alot of air then the TB isn't really a problem. There are plenty of other restrictions. (Intake, heads, cam profile, exhaust)
If I were you I'd do long tubes before TB.

How satisfied are you with Lidio's work? I have spoken to him many times and have an appointment in a few weeks. He is a very knowledgeable, stand-up guy IMO.

I went to Lidio 2 days ago for a retune and let me tell you, HE KNOWS HIS STUFF. On top of that, he is a very nice guy. I drove 4 hours to have my car retuned by him. He had me in and out of there in a little over 2 hours. Would reccommend him to anyone.
