I also replaced the factory H-Pipe with a Magnaflow resonated X-Pipe. Jeremy Formato did the Dyno Tune. The numbers even surprised him. He was expecting 15-20 less... Stock on a similar DynoJet the car put down 368HP/365TQ.

Obviously the contributors to those numbers went in this order LT's, ADM Intake, Vmax TB, Magnaflow X-Pipe...

The TB is maybe worth 5+ HP but it helps dramatically with throttle response and drivability. That's the main reason to get one.
Thanks man good info..wtf is catted Lt

I don't have a vmax throttle body. I ordered one from RX. Nuff said. I will not purchase a product that has dealers such as RX in their portfolio. I hear great things about it, that is why I initially ordered it, however I made the mistake of ordering it from RX. The whole ordeal with rx turned me off to vmax. I know they don't make them and are a different company entirely, but if I were Vmax I would seriously question who I let represent and sale my product.

High Flow Cats... most headers come with the option of either cats or no cats. IMHO the cats barely rob any power maybe 1-2 and they kill all that nasty smell out of the butt of the car.
