How much extra air flow are you getting from stage 2 to stage 3?

I put on the new Stage III Sharp Shooter TB last night. Car feels great and is a tad bit snappier. At first the car was idling weird until it learned and then the idle smoothed out. No surging at cruising speeds whatsoever.

That's good news!!!

Bo, I noticed on the wedge from Vararam that there is a small transition edge from the T/B is there any material to smooth that out.

I'll dbl check but it seemed fine wedge bore to the bore of the plenum but from wedge to TB it needed some help.

I'm going to be doing the 3rd round of testing soon.
Once I've pressed a TB apart to do a stage II I don't press them back apart. That's why a fresh one is needed.
