| morning to all
big will it gave me great throttle response out of the gate and it seems like quicker acceleration. i noticed that 5th gear freeway passes are easier and did not have to down shift unless i wanted to really get on it. i think its well worth the 75.00 shipped. the thread on sl started out about the tornado {dissing it} and when vibol introduced his tbs to the thread w/dyno results for test vehicle the dissing at least on tbs's stopped. again he also explains about engines being overgrown compressors and its to do with pressure causing it to be more dense therefore more air in same space = more air/fuel to motor/hope this helps. i think his test vehicle was a sentra but its on dyno test for everyone to see and we all know the math dont tell lies | |

| basic math 101
even though his test car was a nimo sentra ser the same percentage gaines should be seen by box's
starting whp on sentra was 136.3 ending was 144.8 thats 9.4% gain
trq comes out same 162.6 start and 171.9 end also 9.4% gain
if you apply that math to boxes hp either whp or fly wheel my bet is the dyno would say very similar results of @ 9 to 91/2 % gains  | |
