what do you mean you feel no power? Maybe you have issues elsewhere? Whats your whole setup? Is it dyno tuned?

You may have simply gotten used to the power you have over time. Up the boost, this isn't an N/A section

yea its tune with crome...i made 305hp 211tq on 9.5lb of boost..this is what i have

stock gsr turbo
turbonectic t3t4 .63 trim
full race ramhorn
full race 3"downpipe
38mm wastegate
victor X manifold
skunk2 70mm throttle body
750cc rc injector

i was just wondering if the stock gsr throttle body would be better than the 70mm skunk2?

Well unless the victor x manifold is matched to your throttle body, your only using 65mm of the throttle body. Which to answer your question is better than a stock gsr throttle body. If you feel like your losing power, check for boost leaks.
