Interesting video on throttle body for 3.7

Hmm...this video is interesting. I thought the throttle bodies weren't supposed to give much in HP gains. I would assume this video and claims by BBK would be legit though? Check out that low end improvement in torque and HP....hmmmm.

Watched that and then their CAI video...same gains in HP and torq from each component and if you listen to it, it seems it is the same video in some parts. He just interchanges the 2 parts, the throttle body and the CAI. However, the dyno numbers are slightly different in the low end.

These results seem too good to be true....do you guys believe those gains? For such an easy mod I would think more people would do this mod if they were actually seeing those gains. $400 is kind of expensive if you aren't actually getting those gains.

They actually had a video for that part before wonder why they made another. I was considering getting it but some people were saying the gains aren't near that or even worth it. Anyone with the part disagree?

I thought they only added 1 or 2 more wheel horsepower. I need to see more test before i would buy one.

I found this on youtube. It ended up adding 2 wheel horsepower to a 5.0. So i bet it wouldn't add anything to the 3.7L
