Joe, I took the sleeve out, and it makes a considerable difference in how the car acts at low speeds. I cut out the sleeve in a79 TB. a copper tube pressed in from the side prevents easy removal. But when I felt around in my 77 TB, it came out with a slight tug, pulling from back to front. Free is a very good price.

Joe, I still run my car without the insert. It seems to do better in town, and on the road. And it still passes Oregon emission tests.

wonder if theres one out there with a bigger
2ndary.. e-turbo back east way back there
did alot of removal of metal between the 2.
Maybe theres a bigger one out there.. some
