yeah i JUST picked some up, i heard it increases throttle response. and that seems to be the main thing slackin in my G. im not going to "run it hard" like ive seen people say, my baby has 185xxxk miles and i dont want her having a heart atk :P but one thing i dont get is, when its time to do the brake booster(through the hose) can i do it while its at an idle? and just do it slowly? or should i have my roomie hold it at 2k RPMs while i slowly feed it to the BB hose?

It will be fine at idle. You want to make sure you pour it in slowly otherwise the engine will stall, you will hear it bog down when your putting it in too fast.

mmk, thnx and even though im not pouring it into the crank case, should i still change my oil? im honestly not quite sure exactly what the brake booster line goes through. i figured it was for more than the brakes, part of me wants to think that it goes through the engine(hence the bogging?) and if it does, perhaps in/around/near the combustion chambers? sooo then maybe around the oil?

I'm pretty sure that vacuum line will drop it in the cylinders.

ok, so it will then... do you by any chance know how oil lubes the pistons w/o getting in the cylinders then? cuz u would always be burning oil then if it did get in there... my only worry is that seafoam gets into my crank case, cuz i still got 1500 miles till my nxt oil change n im cheap, i care for my baby but i am cheap :] once every 3k miles is already enough for me :P

The piston rings keep the oil from pouring into the combustion chamber. The Seafoam will burn away in the chamber so you don't have to worry about it mixing with the oil.
