I have no problem with my idle since I got my modded tb. I like it the only complaint I have is started the car when the engine is cold you have to let it warm up or it wants to stal when you come toa stop.

don't do it unless you have a standalone, you car is slow without one anyway, so the tb mod won't do much but possibly cause more probs than good, like mikey said

Car is currently receiving an E6X.....!

standalone= aftermarket engine management system, solely controls fuel and ignition on your engine.

what is this tb mod you all speak of? Is it s4 and s5 type mod? from most of the reports it sounds like i would like to do it myself. if someone could tell me how to do it or show me where to find out how that would be great. thanks, jack

I did mine and love it. it is a little jerkier when cruising very low in 1st, but other than that its great.

Yeah after I did mine I couldnt get the idle to stop surging, but removal of BAC, some tps adjustement and such, and she starts up and idles at 850 no problem.

1st and 2nd was wayyyyyyyyyy jerkier, but i need new bushings and i have solid motor mounts. so thats a big cause. i never tried it a non ported tb on my turbo motor, so i don't know about thegains, and yes holding your foot on the gas sucks ass, specially when it stalls people think your car is dying and such.
