    I have read through this thing a million times, and have come up with one question. No where in this sticky does it mention throttle body upgrades. Even though I notice in almost every persons sig with a modified 3800 they have either a N* TB or a LS1 TB or something else, never a stock L67 throttle body.. so I must ask, how much does changing your throttle body really matter? Thanks in advance!

    It increases flow to feed the blower.. BUT you wont need a bigger TB till you get to a cam mod level...
