Agreed. Guess I'll have to look somewhere else. I hear Jantzer Performance is working on a ported 78mm throttle body...

Well, for one, there are no pics, etc. when it was stated they would be provided in an earlier post. If you have a prototype, you could get pics of that. Or, at the very least update all of us on what's going on with testing.

Customer service should be #1 priority when releasing a new product. I'm not going to waste my time sitting around waiting if I have cash to spend. I'll go somewhere else, like to Jantzer Performance as I stated earlier.

Please show some respect to them in their thread. They will get pictures as soon as they can. It is very ironic that you talk about needing a TB fast, yet you refer about having jantzer do it... I suggest you take a step back and do a search.

I don't "need a TB fast". I do have money saved up and have waited in the past for shops posting on here saying that they have a product coming out, only to be waiting for weeks/months with nothing happening and no update letting people who have been waiting know that said shop found out they can't do it for whatever reason. I have been in contact with Scott from Jantzer, so I have that information about how development is going with theirs. Obviously from this thread, there is no follow up...who am I going to be more inclined to go with?

Maybe you should take a step back before misinterpreting what I've written in my previous posts here trying to find irony.

Whats wrong with just posting pics of the prototypes? Those would be fine. My comment was from anticipation and also being in the same boat, that boat being money to spend and also just happened to be looking right now for a TB porting, and then anxiously waiting.... and waiting.... and waiting.... so I understand where the guy is coming from about going somewhere else.


I dont think he meant disrespect, more less dissappointment.

If you look back at our posts you will see we have delivered on every claim ever made...and in as timely of a fashion as possible. The first batch was installed on customer cars or sent to other shops to try before we thought to take pictures. The next batch will be here this Monday & pictures will be posted then. My appologies on the oversight, but do a search on all my posts.....customer service here is second to none.

Thanks for the update! That's all I think a lot of people were looking for. Just an update/explanation of what's happening in the process. If it came off like I was questioning your professionalism I do apologize. I only meant to state that other people/shops on here have made a huge hype about a product, then fell through and was never heard from again after everyone got on board. Again, thanks for keeping all of us in the loop.

Yes, it is a 78mm so will fit on any of the 78mm intakes.

I thought the intakes were 75mm as are all the stock ported throttle bodies?

So you're saying it just bolts on and the manifold throat is as big as the throttle body bore?

Does it maintain the stock throttle blade/bore as some claim it is 78mm?
