I agree with junking the stock TPI, but I would look into going with a HSR setup instead. It looks good and performs extremely well. Plus you retain your gas mileage and throttle response.

Yeah but it cost lost of money and is not worth it. For the cost of the HSR and motor and all the other crap (injectors, MAF....) you could buy an LS1!
