Default probably a dumb question

Every so often, in posts, i see people saying they have a Silverado "NBS". What does NBS stand for? I know i'll say duhhh, once i find out........ Maybe Nothing But Stock?

So you have to be a computer nerd to know these?
WOT=Wide Open Throttle
TPS=Throttle Position Sensor
CPS=Crank position Sensor
IAC=Idle Air Control
MAF=Mass Air Flow sensor
MAP=Manifold Absolute Pressure
BHS=Blown Head Gasket(not common)
Sometimes it just makes things easier to know a few of these. And I don't think it makes someone a nerd to know a few.

Well they put it on the more sporty looking silverados, i dono if there only around where i live or if you guys have seen them too. But they have sllghtly bigger tires with some aftermarket rims on them, sometimes an exhaust and little stuff like that. The salesman i asked about it who was selling one had no idea what it stood for, and just tryed to change the topic so im not sure.
