<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by Transpeed Motorsports &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">
The throttle rotor installs in 30 minutes, sliding on top of your OEM unit. This product is made of AL6061 Billet Aluminum and then Hard Anodized. The WR Throttle Rotor is Computer Designed to reduce the turning ratio of your throttle body rotor, to increase throttle response and reduce the time it takes your car to get to FULL THROTTLE by 50%.

I think it's pointless. Everybody in the performance forum seems to think it's hot **** though.

EDIT:
Here's a FREE way to increase throttle response..

Tighten your throttle cable until it's taught, when it's like, on the verge of being taught and pulling the butterfly, it'll be nice. That's what I did b/c my idle was too low....and hadn't had a problem since.

Now if you're wondering why I did that to increase my idle...that idle set screw does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I completely unscrewed it at one point and pulled the backup fuse, reset the ECU, etc - started the car, idled in the same place, it DID NOT move my idle AT ALL and I did it word for word from haynes.

expletive that idle set screw. Use the throttle cable.

It works and if it's cheap get it it, just saves you from having to push the gas as fast.
