Solaris, have you noticed any flat-spots or other tuning related problems since your T.B. swap?

i have the fc t/b and there are no flat spots if i understand what you mean... as in places where you feel loss of hp... there are none... its an incredible throttle body boost... and i installed a fc pulley kit at the same time as the t/b and at 5k rpms i feel a definite boost especially in 2nd and 3rd gear... hope that helps
