I just did the TB swap today and the change is very...VERY noticeable. The whistling noise can be heard through all gears when pressing the throttle(Depending on the throttle you give).
The car revs differently:
-revs slightly faster
-the CAI has a much more meaner sound
-"whistling" starts near the 2600rpm depending on the gear.
I also installed the UDP again after trying out the new TB. I had forgot how it felt to go WOT on the first two gears with the UDP. Right now im very pleased with the 63mm TB.
I will be installing a cam gear soon and will probably do some dyno runs. Maybe I can switch TB's while doing some runs and check for the slight change and then set the cam gear.

Well the UDP helps rev quicker and the throttle response is much better. I had changed the clutch to an ACT 50/50 and now after the UDP and TB the car goes nuts on 1-2 gear change the dash board just feels like its going to break because of the wheel hop

I just installed my TB upgrade, installed with the battery disconnected, let the car idle for 10-15min and took it for a spin. When I clutch out (neutral) at a stop sign or a red light, the revs move their way up to 1500 or so and then simmer. When it's parked it idles normal.
Anyone know why?
Is this going to eventually learn itself away or do I have to re-reset something ?

edit: car figured itself out, revving at about 900 at idle now once off the gas, will need to take it for a few more drives. Better low end, throttle response, definitely a change in throttle tone (growls more), I like it!

I still need to do this for my trans mount.. Does anyone know of a place that sells Devcon flexane in the states?? I've looked and I can only find it online in bulk.
