Gadgetman, I'm willing to test your product. Send me a throttle body for a 2007 Ford Mustang 4.0 Liter V-6 with your modifications, and I'll test it for 12 months and post my fuel log here as usual. If it improves my average fuel economy by 10% or more, I'll send you a check for the cost of the throttle body + $50 for your modification. If it doesn't, I'll return the modified throttle body to you, and you send ME a check for the cost of the fuel I burned testing it. Fair enough?
