We always want more aftermarket speed vendors/products. It just gives us more
competition and thus more choices. Bring it!

On the other hand - I'm not sure why everyone is so concerned w/TBs. As
mentioned here before - bigger isn't always better. I know folks have shown
supposed "dyno proof" (as if thats the end-all-be-all of evidence) -but- I have
personal evidence of low-rpm torque loss when going to a bigger TB. When you
are trying to get a 5000+lb truck out of the hole -believe me- you don't want to
give up ANY low-rpm torque. Not worth it in my opinion. Horsepower on the big
end you say???? Now thats another issue -but- I must ask the question "How many
street races continue until 90+ mph?????"

Latr,
