[QUOTE="Comp04svt, post: 15915165, member: 73358"] To be honest, I feel it may be kind of a toss up. I got my TVS when they were fairly new to market. I ordered the GT500 setup before they were released and had to wait to put it on. I installed the TVS with the LFP that was on my whipple, and swapped the next year to the GT500. I don't really have an apples to apples comparison because at the same time that I swapped the TB, I went from a 3.2 pulley to a 3.1 pulley. LFP on the 3.1 pulley 17.5-18 psi made 595 wheel. GT500 on the 3.1 19psi made 619 wheel on 93. Switched to E85 on the dyno and went 685 wheel. The 24-25 hp I gained could very well be from the pulley swap, but I have no clue how much the TB helped. I look at it this way. If you have a stock throttle body on the TVS currently, then I would definitely jump into a GT500 setup. If you currently have an accufab/LFP/dragon, I wouldn't bother upgrading. The mods listed in your sig would tell me that I doubt, with all you have done, you'd still be on a stock throttle body, lol. But if you are, then you'd see some great gains going to the GT500. The GT500 really shines with higher boost levels. And with cams/20psi/E85 I'm sure it would be a nice jump. [/QUOTE]
