Re: TB ported? On a stock internal motor, ported TBs are worth ~4-5rwhp. Once you add heads/cam, we have seen upwards of 8rwhp.
I have a Thunder Racing ported TB on my car and I picked up 6rwhp over an ALREADY ported TB.
Here was the dyno graph:

Re: TB ported? I take it you guys have not heard about Mark Shaner's S2 Throttle Body. This is the most awesome mod that I have done to my car besides my cam. I put it in before my cam and I swear, it felt like I had just put a cam in my car. I have heard that it is dynoing something like 6-8 hp over a MMS TB, which dynos 8-10 hp over stock TB on internally stock engines, that's a huge gain guys. He's e-mail is m.shaner@worldnet.att.net. If you go in the Texas forum on LS1.com he posts as Shaner, and you will see all the posts on his TBs from people that own his TBs.

Re: TB ported? The S2 has a little bit more port/polish work, as well as an epoxy fill in the PCV/whatever indention.
The throttle response/hp gain from Shaner's work is amazing for only being a throttle body port job, simply amazing...I have one on a Vette and one on an Fbody, extremely happy with them.
