how does a new T/B help? lol


hey guys i was just wondering how exactly a new t/b gives me more power? lol i mean i know it does and i recently just put in a BBK 70mm t/b and i can feel a difference, but i dont understand why, i mean installing it, it pretty much looked identical to the stock one? haha

I think it just allows more air... so you can put more fuel in? IDK. I know that spacers and tornadoes and all that crap have been debunked around here but an upgraded TB iteslf is a different story
