the feeling that you could have spent the money on something better from what I hear.

The throttle body will make you lighter though....about $200 lighter.

I second the combo...

Plenum and TB, especially if you are planning on FI in the future. I made the mistake of doing just the TB. Didn't get much if any. I will be purchasing the plenum.

don't waste your money...save up and get a ported & polished bullit intake.

You won't feel any difference in your car with the 2-3 hp you'll get from the throttle-body and probably still won't even feel it if you get the plenum to go with it.

Don't nickel and dime your car...save your money for significant changes that will actually make your car more fun.

Just out of curiosity what kind of gains can you expect from a ported & polished bullit intake?

Don't just get a TB, if you do, get a Plenum as well. I'd say you should spend that $$$ on Pullies, a Catback or an FIPK

10 RWHP will definitely make a car more fun.

I can tell that you are one of those hardcore old schoolers who is a die hard Bullit Intake fan IF you're gonna spend that kinda $$$, why not get P&P, cams, P-51, wait to see if any new intake come out this summer, or get gears exhaust and a tune? Those would all be about the same cost, and make it more fun IMO

but when you do make sure you get the combo
