Bo White ported my TB. He said avg gains were 6whp, some upwards of 8whp

That is cheap, easy power.

Most sponsors have good turn around time. I have a spare TB laying around here somewhere from a 2000 Z28 if you want it.

He hit that dead on. Good way for some experience, self-gratitude, and money saved.

Ours is more than just a porting job. We see 5-12hp gains.
$155 with exchange for cable
$165 with exchange for ETC

CNC ported inlet
CNC modified throttle plate
CNC modified throttle plate screws
CNC modified throttle cam


stock flow 885 cfm @ 28"
ours flow 947 cfm @ 28"


Turn around time is instant. We have them on the shelf and ready to exchange.
