This is the beautiful part; no one knows!

Best bet is to install it, reset the PCM, start it and let it idle for a few minutes and take it for a very light drive. Do that for a little while, and then drive it like you stole it.

I would like to know if this throttle body mod will actually increase HP? As for drag racing? Did someone say something about loosing low end torque? I am very intrested if this would give me a little more in the 1/4 mile. BTW, what is the bore size difference stock to hipotekon the 3.7L? ??/65.5mm.

There are no dyno charts that I know of for the 3.7l, however F&B has a dyno chart on their website for a 4.7l Dakota with some bolt ons (including a 72mm throttle body) and a performance chip adding 13 or 14 rwhp at the 3-4k RPM range.
