Carl -

Could you elaborate a little more regarding why you think there is just
a little improvement from a throttle body?

At the Monterey Historics, I talked to the Dinan rep that was hanging
around the 850 Turbo and Chuck's Supercharged M3.  I was talking to him
about "bang for the buck" mods and he thought the throttle body was
maybe the 2nd or 3rd thing you should do (if you're looking for HP gain that
is).

Are all throttle bodies created equal?
