Nice. But yeah I'm pretty sure it's the throttle bodies. There was no code it felt like I had lost 100hp or more it took a while to get up to speed. Had them replaced and it was like it came back from the dead.

Sorry, I haven't had my coffee this morning. When you said throttle bodies it registered in my brain as the intake tubes I was looking at....


I did put new R2C intake drop-in filters in march, so it could be that the throttle bodies just need to be cleaned.

I'm ordering the intake tubes today so I'll clean the throttle bodies when I swap them out.
