Fra

did anyone notice more throttle response after doing the FRA . i just did it today and i am not sure if it was a mental thing that my car seemed to feel a little more responsive on the throttle.

Re: Fra

Re: Fra

I think that's another one of those "hard to measure" mods. It can't hurt, but for how much it really helps?? I did it anyways too.

Re: Fra

The EGR tube is full of carbon build up from raw exhaust, it will dilute itself with the intake air flow so its not as bad as a build up after the tube.
