i got my car chipped with an APR Chip and APR exhaust.. i think i need to replace my TBB.. i seem to be loosing power after i have had my chip in for a week.. would the extra power create a tear ? i have 16k miles now.

Default I think the idea is to replace it *before* you have problems.

I went with AMS' reinforced TBB. They take a stock TBB and beef it up; new clamps too.

Default No, AMS is local to me (Costa Mesa, CA).

Here's their URL. I think their website needs a little updating, but you can call/email to get all the info on their TBB and whatever else.<ul><li><a href="http://www.advancedmotorsport.com/">Advanced Motorsport Solutions</a></li></ul>
