    TSB is a Technical Service Bulletin

    TBS is a Throttle Body Spacer.

    Two very very different items.

    Def clean ur maf sensor regardless of make/model since ur running oiled filters. They can get gummed up and cause mpg issues, idle issues and/or performance issues. Even brand new from the factory, I've seen oiled filters that are over oiled.

    Just some friendly advice I've learned thrbthe years here and thru personal experience.

    Same with the throttle body itself.

    As for what u bought and decide to run, its ur truck and as long as ur happy, thats good. But honestly, check out the throttle body, it only takes a few minutes to clean and its well worth it. The maf sensor could be pretty dirty and cause the truck to run rich and waste fuel as well as cost some performance since iirc it'll read colder than it should and dump more fuelthinking the air is denser.

    Either way, happy hunting and keep her rubber side down ;)

    Thank you. I did mean TBS. You think I should switch to an original K&N filter or keep it inexpensive with Spectre?

    Justus has good advise. Use a paper air filter. No reason to change your intake either since stock is cold air.

    Alright, I'll try the dry filter out. Since I'll be in trying to clean my throttle body, should I take th TBS off. I know it doesn't help but does it hurt?

    Doesn't hurt but it's pointless. Does it make a nice whistle at least?

    Too many to list now.
    I was blown away with the increase I saw from my AFE pro dry, so that gets a big x2 from me. Also, if you've looked at justus' build at all, just do what the man says lol. He knows his stuff.

    Checked out your build. It's very nice. Unfortunately, I live in California with strict emission laws, so I guess the best route for me is to get an AFE pro dry filter and then a Ucon Flex to tune all my bolt ons to run right.

    I plan on getting the dry filter next month. Do you think I should place my stock Toyota MAF back on instead of the JET MAF?
