I think this page might be down too, I just got a "page cannot be displayed." Any other links that have the tb mod?

Doesn't effect emissions at all.

And won't really make hardly any noticeable difference on a N/A. Turbos are the only ones to really benefit from the mod.

allright, thanks a bunch for the link, searching the forums and getting broken links was getting boring.

I plan to do a short list of modifications to my intake system, while leaving it looking completely stock. ( including leaving the airbox in place)
I have a 90 'vert, will port the intake manifold, add pineapple racing sleeves, and a little grinding on the throttle body.
My question is, what are the downfalls to doing the tb mod, and will it be worth it? the exhaust will be redone later this year, freeflowing all the way - no emmision testing here. This is a daily driver, and I wouldn't particularly enjoy a severe drop in torque.
Any thoughts on what I should expect of this on this na engine?
