It drives better now that I've got a full ss system on and everything flows better. But recently something has been playing up, when the engine gets hot (needle in the middle of the guage) it seems to run slow as if somethings holding it back.

May have something to do with the TB may not.

Its just I need to make sure that it fits straight on before I buy one, otherwise if it didnt, I would need to buy other stuff to fit it properly.
