*rolls eyes* Okay. Well last summer this was abig debate and there were like 7 or 8 of us that all went out and bought the same one and loved them. I guess some people expect fire to shoot out of the exhaust when they drop $100 on amod.

Haha, I got the Trans Dapt Torque Curve. I guess maybe it just isn't what I expected. I guess I could compare it to a air foil on the LT1 engines.....

its a 6.2, not the 6.0, i just looked and theres more than enough room for a 1 inch spacer. does anyone have any experience with the jet tbs, i have heard a few people mention the airaid, but nothing on the jet. since it is such a new engine package, those are tho only 2 i can find.

trans dapt...I have noticed better throttle response at 30+ and mid range power. Haven't calculated mpg yet so not sure on that one yet

I have an Airaid spacer I gained some mid range power and slightly better throttle response.U will see better results when used with an Airaid intake and a better fit.

rxsteven,the 6.2 liter are on the 07 Denalis and Escalade.

If you're looking more better MPG's you're better off buying a programmer,a throttle body spacer won't do much for u.

I had a Helix Power Tower on my 94 and the mpg diff was non existing but as far as power goes I only really noticed a diff at WOT from 2000rpm up. It would pull harder from that point all theway through the rpm band. Other than that not a bid diff but worth a hundred bucks for sure!

Weigh your price to horespower ratio grasshopper!

I knew I wouldn't get much from a TBS thats why I only dropped $55 on one shipping included.

FYI: you guys with old tunes or no tunes, try tuning your ride or updating your current tune after you add something like a TBS. It helps!
