Unless you have turbo, a bored TB will result in power loss. I had mine bored 3mm on top and 2mm bottom. Maybe if you had it bored 1/2 as much, but what I got was way too big. The car would bog down alot when flooring it, and it felt like the car got alot slower.

well from what i heard, it's suppose to reduce your torque, but on highends it's suppose to help...since i have the v-afc2, and i'm gonna get bigger injectors, i can adjust accordingly

if that gives you some decent gains, let me know, my girl(mother of my children) wont let me get a turbo, until we have a house (yeah right). So hit me up on PM if you notice some decent gains. I am looking for some gains w/o turbo

Gains without turbo? Port/polish the cylinder head from a good place. That and intake header exhaust with tuning and a few other things put a member here almost at 140whp (stock SI numbers).
