If I were to get a throttle Body Spacer and a new Lighter Crank pulley... on average how much would this cost to do... or does anybody know how to do it?

Thanks,
Cory

I haven't herd of anyone putting a throttle body spacer in not even sure it can b done i think i have seen them being sold for tC's. But a crank pully is a easy install if you have a compact gun to get the bolt off to change the pully its even easyer to do here is a DIY for the crank pully

as for the throttle body spacer id search some on SL and see if it can b done and if anyone has done it and PM them about it

Thats where I was looking at them... I found them in the classified section of this site.
Reading the description it shows that they put it on an automatic and listed the increase of different things on the car. Take a look and see if i am just reading it wrong or something.
Thanks,

Interesting... ok well maybe I will just do the pulley for now and hopefully the dyno results will be up shortly for me to see how the throttle body worked out.

Does anybody have a good pulley they reccomend for me?

No not yet... Im going to wait a lil bit just for some extra money. I did just put a Fujita CAI which was definitely a great upgrade

Yes... i've only had the car for 2 weeks... but I am really trying to find catback exhaust for short money. Im definitely bot trying to be cheap with this car I want it done up right. But if I can get it for the right price i would love to get it done.
