    tb bypass, porting the tb, de screening the mass air and cutting down the bump stop on the tb so it opens 100%. i think those are all it not sure

    Tb Bypass Is Where You Take Both Coolant Hoses And Diconnect Them From Tb. It Takes Maybe 5 Min And About 5 Bucks. It Consist Of 1-male Coupling & 2-sm Hose Clamps(this Is For The 2 Hoses You Diconnected) And 2-rubber Caps(to Plug Off The Inlets On Tb). Hope This Helps

    The tb bypass does'nt really add HP...What it does is stop the flow of hot coolant flowing through your tb in turn keeping you tb cooler and keeping the airflow though it cooler.

    Also, I remember Sarge saying something about a fuel line that comes from the factory with a nice "kink".

    Buy a braided fuel line and get rid of that. Not exactly "free".... but it cant be too much.

    The throttle body bypass is for 04 LS1 engines only, the 05 &06 LS2 donot have coolant flowing through them,. So this mod is for the 04 and older LS1s

    Yeah it's the line that connects on the right rear bottom of the tank. It connects the tank to the steel fuel line that runs along the sub frame.
    6 out of the 7 I've worked on have been kinked.
    It looks as if the tank was set down in the trunk with the line already attached to the tank. That hard plastic line has a memory of the kink even after it being removed and stays closed with a restriction.
    I usually replace it with a nice piece of Earl's Super Stock 3/8" hose.
    You can reuse the stock hose barbs that go into the "quick disconnect" fittings. Just use caution while cutting off the hard plastic line from the barbs on the fittings.
    Don't be afraid of the bottle!!! Be afraid of your tune!!!

    The '05-'06 drive by wire throttle bodies do not have bump stops on the throttle cam either.
