from my experience, the udp helpd me get up a lil quicker... but after a week, i didnt feel it nemore (had gotten used to it).

now, the 55mm throttle body, i can feel that every time i step on it, whether playin in traffic, from light to light...

hehe, i bet turbo or naws would make u happy emoji

Most for least money is the $20 motor mounts made by Energy suspension and available from Summit Racing.

motor mounts - that would help me?? - yea NOS would be nice but not that much money around 200-300 - but i heard a 55mm TB you have to P&P you intake manifold also or get it BORED out to do you any good or can you just straight chnage your TB and do nothing else?

to answer your ? quickly, the motor mounts will decrease wheel hop, and help get the torque to the wheels..
a bored t/b is 55mm, stock is 52mm.. the intake port wher the t/b connects is at 55 or 57mm, so it works well... the t/b combined w/intake is good shit...

i dropped a bored TB and CAI on at teh same time on my old 420a SOHC, was a HUGE difference, throttle got a little too touchy for me, but I got used to it. the butterfly could have used a stronger spring also, my leg would get tired from holding my foot off of the gas at highway speeds.. cause if i just rested the my foot on the pedal it'd take off right up to the speed limiter.

nah, you don't have to take off the intake manifold.. To get it off, first you have to take off your intake hose/pipe.. then there are 2 big bolts going horizontal, the wire that is pulled when you step on the gas, and a small hose on the top of the t/b. Once you have those things off, the t/b should fall off.. but now you have to get the 4 star bolts off that hold on the sensors. Mine were a bitch to get off, but some people have had theirs come off easy. Just get a strong T20 bit.. and it should come off. Then put on the new t/b just like you took off the stock one.. and you're done. It've pretty simple. It'll take about 10 minutes from start to finish, as long as the star bolts don't give you too much trouble.

Howell is $100 for them to bore out yours. Its about a 2 week turn around. I plan on getting mine done as soon as I get the extra TB in the mail. ADR bores our TBs now to 57mm but no one has posted results from that yet who has em so I might get that done if they work out alright oh yeah and ARD will do it for $150 for the TB and intake mani and gasket match em so that is also a +.
