> [@94integrals"](#): > > 4gcivic69 did you know that if you take the throttle body housing cover off there is a little plate in there it’s like a restrictor plate if you take the one screw out and pull that plate out you can get a little more power not much more but it will get more air. i did it to mine doesn’t hurt anything but made mine run a little better. Yea there is that trick. Did you also know that below the throttle body there is a black plastic shim that sits between the TB and manifold? Its actaully a restricter, you can pull it out and dremel it so it matches the TB diameter. ---

I have and daily drive the ACT 6-puck spring (non-extreme). I like it, but I don’t drive in stop and go traffic all the time. I think it might be a bit too much for that… You probably know this, but I’m not sure of the quality of the various units on ebay: don’t scrimp on the quality of your oil lines. There’s a potential engine fire waiting to happen when you use low-quality fittings and lines for oil. For BOV, you want R, S or RS? Does XS Power Systems == SS Autochrome? Are you going with bi-metal or tri-metal engine bearings? ---
