Thanks Dakota, [sm=icon_cheers.gif]
I called Dan today and took the plunge. I'm set up next week to get a TB from him. I'll be able to go to his place and install/ exchange right there. I can't wait......He was very helpful with my many questions so if you guys have specific questions about a TB and your set up, don't hesitate to call him.

No problem. Glad I could help in your decision. You'll like the improvement on throttle response.

the spacers are basicly useless on our trucks...

I don't even think they look that good, but yeah tb spacers are useless don't buy into the hype.

What a lot of the guys have are Jet stage I or stage II chips. I don't have one so I can't tell you much about them but I know Superdak and DakotaStone have them, among other people.

I'm not sure of the mechanics, but it changes the way the computer calculates the air/fuel mix. They're somewhat worth having. I've noticed a difference in both the chips I've had.

ok sorry im bored and was looking at the picture of the stock one and the fastman one...now does that effect how your intake will go on? do you need to buy a bigger cuppler for it to fit over the TB and the Inake or will in use the Cuppler that came with the intake?
