Yup, they need people to send their old ones in so they do a core charge like that. Many auto parts stores will do that with certain parts.

yes. he will charge your card for 260.00 then when you receive the aftermarket tb,dan gives you one month to swap it out and return the factory one. he then credits the card for 80.00. if you want to keep the factory tb and the aftermarket tb. then let him know when ordering. that way he can just charge the 260..00 from the start.

Probably not a bad idea, I thought about that but I'm just going to hold off on the TB till my warranty runs out. Plenty of other mods I can keep myself busy with till then

i have had my truck in the shop plenty of times. if you dont tell them about the mods then they will never know. increasing the size of the bore does not void the warrenty, hell i have aftermarket cams in the truck and they dont know.

Well they can definitely tell I have a Cold Air Intake... kinda obvious... but yeah I guess they probably wouldn't notice the new TB...

If you're having engine problems and they start pulling stuff apart they'll be looking for aftermarket components to blame it on so they don't have to pay.
