Really??? do not sound so convincing, I have always seen gains in my modified 50mm TB's. Do not lead ppl down the wrong path.
X2. It's not the modified TB that causes a loss in mpg...it's the brain telling the right foot to play with right pedal more because of the increase in throttle response and hp. Control the right foot and the increase in mpg will be there.
More power down low means less engine strain at lower rpms. So by my thinking, the kegger mod would cause mpg's to decrease. Just a theory, I left mine stock.
ya ill prob just skip the od sounds like something i would screw up anyways, now for the plenum fix ive read tht i can just reuse the stock plate but get shorter plenum bolts, where can i find shorter bolts
I've also read that you can cut the factory bolts down a little bit since they are not TTY bolts.
The bolts are NOT the issue, but why cut the bolts when you can go buy 15 grade 5 bolts 1/4-20 1/2" in length for about 2 bucks.
Intake bolts are not really TTY either when torqued to a whopping 12 ft lbs, while at hardware store just buy some stainless bolts with stainless lock washers, you can reuse them over and over.
That way when your steel plate pushes the gasket out you will not have to but intake bolts again...
