At the end the "bottleneck" still there you just add more space between the IM and the throttle nothing more or less.
A colder TB because of the gaskets (IM or TB gaskets) isn't the reason either. The air that comes from the intake moves so fast there is no time for heat exchange.
Those extra ponies are due to glitches between runs. That is the reason of why I do at least 4 runs before and after the mod to do an average.
Everyone here that has visited a dyno knows that all the runs give different readings. I still skeptical about this mode there is no reason for improve power there is no extra flow, its impossible.
Sorry to jack the post but you can't cover the sky with the hand.

i'll try and explain to u w/o offending ur intelligence...
more air capacity in the intake manifold creates more power... y do u think people always want a PORTED & polished manifold it's to create more space inside the manifold... resulting in more hp...
and if u seriously think that b/c the air is flowing fast that it can't change the temps then i have no comment to leave...
also we did THREE base runs first all of them read 190.x... they were all within 1hp of each other... if ur car isn't stock then they might read different but considering my car is stock and the runs were within minutes of each other i don't see how the numbers would be different...
after the first two runs w/the TB spacer the runs read 192.x (both of them) but after the ECU adjusted for the added air the hp went up consistently to 195.x on the following runs
just thought that would help considering some people might have thought these numbers were tampered with or adjusted...

some dyno's read from the pulses in the wires some read from the physical pulley's... this one is laser read from the desired pully....
