    If you go to unscrew the butterfly out make sure u put the screws back in with loctite. they rattled free on my car and almost lost the screws through the system.

    I wouldnt mess with the throttle stop screw. This is adjusted by the factory & can cause problems if not adjusted correctly.

    If you pull the TPS off be VERY careful to not misplace any of the springs. Let one of those suckers go and you're stuffed.
