I didn't realize you had to keep your throttle body entertained.

At any rate, I understand that you souldn't bother boring out your TB unless you plan to or already have done major engine work - cams, turbo, whatever. Just thought I'd throw that out.

I had my GSR throttle body bored out 6 years ago from AEM. If I can remember correctly, it cost me $175.

I know for a fact that not too long ago http://www.jgenginedynamics.com was boring t.b.s for $105!! Of course as far as you can take the stock t.b. is 4mm over (that is how much they bored it)... but on a N/A LS that is plenty. I would think that you would see a nice gain in the throttle response area.
