Opinions on adding ported TB Dynoed the new C1 cam and LS6 intake combo today and ended up with 365 RWHP and 354 RWT. A/F is around 12.8-13.0 across the board. The car also has LT's on it and all the obligatory bolt-ons, of course. Is there anything left in it or is a ported TB a waste of time? The tune is pretty much maxed out so there's not much room, if any, to tweak. Thoughts?
Also, the search function gave me an error message.

Re: Opinions on adding ported TB I have a guy running a TB that is at some unreal rwhp with just bolt ons, like a 370rwhp number.
At the track last night a non TB SS vs a TB SS was off 2mph and .25, so it's definately worth something.

Re: Opinions on adding ported TB I'm using a Shaner S2 truck throttle body right now. I couldn't see any difference. Didn't dyno any different than stock...nor did the BBK while I had it on. If you want to trade parts for a bit to test, let me know.
'Course, everyone will tell you to test it at the track, but I don't go to the track. 365rwhp? Your car an automatic?

Re: Opinions on adding ported TB No, M6. I think I'm on the tad low/normal range for some reason. I gave up some removing the cutout so I really gained about 50 RWHP from the swap/intake. Good? Bad? Not sure, but I'll keep going!
