Throttle response is a little better since she can breath now but I'm not getting the full potential since I don't have a tuner, yet.

Was wondering the same thing but I have a 4.6L. Hope someone has some pics or info on this. Must not be that big of deal since noone has said much about it. Thanks

I have an 04 with a 5.4 and did the Gotts and it does a lot of whistling now at certain rpm levels. Is this normal?
