Man, that's interesting, especially if it gives the gains it says it does. A cheap mod for those kindda gains. But like everything there's always companies that are willing to 'talk it up'! Look at all the posts where people claim that K&N filters don't do sh!t and yet their website says otherwise. The only real way to know is via the good ol' dyno!

I wouldn't trust a dyno either, maybe 1/4 quarter mile times.

Won't do too much to a stock 6... if you've done headwork or replaced cam etc then you would see some decent benefits out of it.

FYI... the 5L TB is 70mm i think.... maybe worth a trip to a wrecker ;) But yes 71mm should be plenty if 70mm is enough for a 5L.

if you got the twin t/b would you need to get bigger injectors (say the s/c v6 ones) and new fuel rails (any else u would need?)? is it possible to reprogram the computer to reconise the second t/b??

Thank Jecs
