god910 Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 Yeah, you're better off putting your time and money into a I/C chiller. BTW check out the sig for the ass dyno proven 200HP increase from the TB bypass. Quote
TGPilot Posted January 26, 2004 Report Posted January 26, 2004 BTW check out the sig for the ass dyno proven 200HP increase from the TB bypass. That's all 200HP? I would have figured 260 or 300, but I have been wrong before!! :shock: Quote
dkorinko Posted January 26, 2004 Report Posted January 26, 2004 So all bullshit aside...as anyone ever had their car dynoed to show the difference with a thorttle body and without one??? Or better 1/4 mile times with or without one??? I just wanted to see if there were any hard facts about whether or not bypassing the throttle body actually does anything that would be worth the time.

I seriously doubt anyone has taken the time to dyno test after this "modification,"it probably wouldn't yield you much/anything at all. I did it because it's easier to get the plenum/tb/etc. off without those upside down press clamps on that little hose that GM puts on there. Check out the ebay scam auctions where throttle body bypasses for our cars and others produced whopping 8hp gains Quote
dkorinko Posted January 27, 2004 Report Posted January 27, 2004 Yeah it just shows how much people will really do to make some $$$$! Quote

I really think you will need a thorttle body to get air into the engine, mainly because that is where the TPS is. With no thorttle body, the car probably would run phunny. Sorry man, I had to. Seriously though, I can't tell you how easy it makes top engine work. Do it for the easy of R&R, not for the performance increase (anyone that actually sees how much of the TB it covers will realize, it won't do a damn bit of good) Quote
