Well I was going to use it to push the t/b out farther to clear the little black piece for the cruise control, but the K/N intake tube would not go on so I didn't use it, I also took the BBK t/b off today because it was putting to much of a strain on the intake tube as well, it was sticking out 1" farther than the stock t/b was.

That is just what I was looking to do also-Nice job.
The only prob I have is my supercharger mounting and fly by wire.
Some one said there is some conversion kit out there to clear the w/p???
Or use vette brackets???
Anyone else done or heard of this?

Kevin, so how is you daily drive-ability vs. truck intake? Have you tested the top end out yet? When is the next track date? What are your plans now for a TB since the BBK is out?

Just curious...lol

well its drives like the truck intake, haven't had a chance to open it up over 120 yet lol, track day is tomorrow night, going to keep the stock t/b on there and sell the bbk if I do get better times even if its only 1/10th.

one thing though it,s alot noisier under wot then the truck intake.
