When someone buys a ported core from me it doesnt come with a TPS or IAC, you just swap em off your original and send the original back to me unless you want to keep it for some reason(which you will need to let me know this ahead of time so I wont be lookin for one back from you). There is no tuning needed on the ported 75mm TBs but Im still R&Ding the 90mm LS2/LS7 to see for sure on them.

It says on his webpage that he does...
But I thought the TB had to be hooked up to the electronics of the car to tell what the voltage was.

Ive been on the dyno one time I remember with gomer and we swapped a TB out and made another pull, gained as usual(dont remember what amount, 7+ or so) and noticed that we forgot to check to make sure it was getting full throttle and it wasnt. The throttle was stopping were it was before so we adjusted it at the cruise control cable and made another pull and gained nothing, just a duplicate pull.
