Default Latest design in TB porting...
Just released...(will post picks soon) the CNC version of ported 78mm TB's. We tried several different textured patterns & found one that netted 6-8 hp & tq in the lower RPM range, something we don't expect with the stock TB's. $129 exchange......and they are the ultimate in ported stock TB's. All is done on a CNC machine so all are duplicates of our R&D ones.

Stay tuned for pics of the design....pretty cool!

We did the testing on both & had the same positive results. Same price for the Y body DBW as the F cable.

The F-body was a stock internal bolt on car w/lid, long tubes, our PCV system, and a 3400 stall A4.

The Vette was a C5 heads/cam & it did not show quite as much as the F-body.

I need to pull the run files again to see just where in the range it peaked, but it surprised us.
