Also the surge tank unless your chasing 350+What power you after? Edited 28/12/13 01:07 AM by freeze_dk
shaunjennifer21 Member 95 Member For: 15y 2m 18d Posted 28/12/13 01:11 AM Author Posted 28/12/13 01:11 AM im not really sure on a power figure I'm after but maybe around the 350-400. it'll only be the standard motor.efi place said that's why my car stalls all the time so instead of buying a standard TB I thought id just go all out and get a ss induction one. I can get a brand new one for $400. doesn't the front housing upgrade help with faster spool up time and has anti surge ?
