I got the Torque Curve from Summit racing for $50... About 1 mpg and a slight whistle, but only under acceleration...

The general consensus is:

Torque curve = low-mid gains
Smooth Bore= mid-high gains

Same price. I got mine from summit racing, as did a few others on here ...about $52 w/ shipping.

MFG: Trans Dapt

If you go on Summit Racing and look up the Trans Dapt throttle body spacers for our trucks. They have a description of both the smooth bore and the torque curve. The smooth bore is designed to produce a mild gain and the torque curve is supposed to be a much better gain. It's basically like stage 1 and stage 2.... The rpm range that the power comes in doesn't have anything to do with them.
