What year? I have heard from some year that it is useless. To many turns to the throttle body. But like I said, that is what I heard, never tried it myself.

You can get one from the fastman, but you have to send him one back.

i think your power gain is in your head, not being mean im being serious. you did and uprgrade and were expecting power, so now your brain is telling you got it when really they dont do anything. they really are a waste of money. I have done the ported throttle body and it was a pretty easy install, and there is a power gain because you actually are creating a larger volume of air for the intake to suck in.
