Or can I just put a bigger t/b on my 94 LT1 motor?

An air foil will give 2 or 3 hp, what mods are currently done to your car?

You might get 2 hp out of an airfoil that you'll never feel. Maybe if you find one for under $10 it might be worth it...
If you plan on going to a bigger TB anyways, the airfoil won't fit. My BBK TB is shaped like an air foil already. Also unless you already did a head and cam swap, no real benefit from messing with the TB at all. You'd also need to get a reprogram with a larger TB or your trans won't last too long.

I got the whole MSD setup, from the box 2 tha coil, cap, rotorand wires. I also have the hypertech programmer on its way. I bought them all on e-bay last few days and i'm still waiting on them.

LIke 350 inch 95 said, its not really necessary messing with the TB unless you start moving some serious air, like strokers, heads/cam combo. But as for an air foil, its kinda almost useless.

The MSD box will only help you if your going to spray nitrous. Otherwise, it's not doing anything.

Also, send the hypertech back. PCMforless will do a much better job.

if you read the paragraph on that page, it says the shops program(like PCmforless with do) made more power than the hypertech. This was on an F-body, but the only difference is the cam, and a compression bump fromthe smaller chamber heads.
