Hey all, I just put my new ported throttle body on that came in the mail today! I absolutely love it! I can definitely feel the difference over the stock TB! I got it from Tim @ Performance Throttle Bodies. It looked amazing, he did an excellent job on it. I can feel alot more mid range on the car now and its definitely alot louder than before now with all that air goin in now. I was kinda surprised how well it did actually, I didnt really know how much of a difference to expect, but Im very pleased with the results. Im glad I did it. Now Ive gotta think of what to mod next..........

 

congrats! i'm thinking thats my next one.

 

Cool man! I'm thinking that might be something I should consider.

Did you have to send your stock one in first, or did they just send you a brand new one?

 

Thanks guys. You should definitely consider it as your next one. Rk2000Z/28, I asked him about that too because my car is my DD and I was gonna have to make arrangements, but he said just to send him mine when I get them switched out. It works out great and you will be very pleased you did it.

 

i got mine from tim also, great product, great craftsmanship, great service, i recommend him to everyone

 

Thanks Gary and guys. Glad you are all happy with the throttle bodies.

 

im waiting for him to get a 98 core in so i can order one

 

Glad to hear the great reviews. I am also waiting for one for my 2000 SS. i need more air in as i just installed a catback today to move more air out.

 

I know guys the cores should be coming back sometime lol. At least i hope so.

 

whats the difference between the epoxied one vs. regular?

 

wow 80/90 w. epoxy???
crazy good prices... i was going to get Shaner3 polished but for $90 i dont think i can go wrong

Ahh...the on going process lol.

 

yup, everyone on tech should think about this. I got mine from Tim, very pleased.

 

this is definitly my next mod

 

i was going to ask the same question... still don't see a response so... again... whats the difference from regular and epoxied TB?

 

difference please????!!!!!

 

so do these throttle bodies have a new throttle plate/bore in it or its just ported and blinged up with slight modifications ?

 

Look at the pics on his site.

 

I have 4.10's, Airlid, Maf, K&N, Smooth Bellow, Underdrive pulley, Predator, 160 tstat, XS Stainless LT's and Jet Hot ORP........will this Throttle body help me any....is it worth the $90????

 

Dont think Tim will mind since hes probably busy porting and hadnt had a chance to get on here....
The epoxy is for the people that want max effort performance. A ported LSx TB will help even a stock car much less a modded one. Average gains on a properly ported TB(which Tim does) 6-7 HP @ the wheels. Ive personally seen anywere upwards of 12rwhp on modded cars and heard up to 14-16(which these cars probably needed a 90/90 setup for best setup). Ported TBs work....even the 90mm bigboys that come on the LS2/LS7s.
