    I read up on the intake the t-body and while it adds a few ponies on the upper end, you loose a bit of torque down low; according to a 5.0 dyno test anyways.


    I believe the bbk whistles no matter what it's on.

    I have a BBK 75mm TB and Plenum and does not wistle.

    My TB's idle screw had to be adjust a turn to fix a vacuum lock, sticky pedal when closed.
