removing TB blade diffuse
this only applies to post '96 vehicles...post '96 tb's have an extra flange on the butterfly...some people take the blades out and grind the extra ones off....its hard to explain it without pictures, maby someone else will have one....
TPS mod
the tps mod (throttle position sensor) is when you take out the tps, and elongate the bolt holes on it so that you can turn it and adjust it...the tps is the sensor that tells the computer how much your pressing the gas pedal...this mod helps a lot on automatic transmmissions because it mades the tranny downshift quicker when you punch the gas....
