Anyone have the throttle body mod yet??
Cory at Klee said it's quite a lot of cash as the entire top part of the motor (blower and belts etc) must be removed to get at the throttle body.
Curious if anyone could feel a difference. It's weird, once you get past the inital mods....pulleys and ecu, it seems most mods are the ole fashioned few hp here and there. Cam supposedly gives you 15....throttle body...another 15-20.
I guess the biggest question now is......how much hp will the cryo system give us. Supposed to be up to 50.....bet another 15-20 when really frozen.

yeah and the problem about forking out $3000 here and $4000 there for these mods is that you probably can't even feel the gain on the butt dyno and a 15rwhp gain will at best given you 1mph and 0.1 off your E.T.
I am going Cryo next. Problem with the Cryo on the Evo heat exchanger is that it will not fit...so I will be limited to the intake and fuel line mod but should still help.
