with a split inlet manifold, short and long runners.
Dont think anyone would believe me if I said that flow benching a tb with the butterfly spindle chafed down would show near identical results to a standard one eh.

come on guys, really how old are you?
I cant beleive your still taking the time to write messages, slating it when you havnt tried it! its not just bhp difference your feeling its the added throttle response, the car revving more freely and the better pull.
yer, yer, yer, you can go on about your dremmel this, dremmel that and shout out your theories etc but you cant really say it does nothing unless you try it! everyone that has bought one off me has been more than pleased with the item. and thats all that matters to me!
im not calling anyone or aiming to provoke a reaction i just dont think its right slating something unless you have tried it your self!

If you are confident that they work send one to me and I'll do the testing to prove it for nothing. You can even have the TB back after
all the performance benefits will be seen on a RR graph

Well, i have been waiting over a week now for my TB to be returned. I haven't had much contact with him since he received my TB's (yes, i sent him 2 VTS TB's, one for him to keep as a spare for an exchange for quicker turnarounds, and one he is meant to be sending back to me).
I hope i get my TB back soon as i don't really fancy a trip up to retrieve it myself!
