I bought one of these ported and filled throttlebodies and installed it. The car definately felt more responsive and quicker but cannot tell until u go to the track. I had raced my car last summer and it ran a best 12.48 @117.3 mph in the hot Texas summer on true street tires at Lonestar Motorsports Park in Sealy Texas at Hennesseys race track.
Went back on June 18/2011 and it was very Hot with the same exact setup in the car,,same tires etc.etc with this new ported throttle body and the first pass it ran a 12.30 @119.2 mph,,,2nd pass it was heatsoaked and ran a 12.32@119.02.
The only change on the car was sparkplugs and the throttle body.
I say it picked it up. My 60foots were not good either night but they were worse this time because the car spun more. This could be from track prep I guess. In cool air im sure it will run a .20 or .10 on street tires and they are
Yokohama S-drives.

We definitely port, and polish along with powder coat lt1 throttle bodies but if you are planning on making big hp in the future, a 58mm throttle body is the way to go, we can work the exact same magic on aftermarket tb's too, as well as port your intake to 58mm to match the tb, send me a pm if your interested and we can get something done for you. Thanks

Just went down and my throttle body installed today...
Looked amazing and he got it on there real fast. A friend of mine also got a set of calipers from his partner that were powder coated in a zr1 looking blue with SS decals on them for his trailblazer SS and all I can say is WOW that is a crazy looking powder coat job. Eventually I want to get my wheels powder coated and I will be going down to you guys. Thanks again and I'm sure my friend and I will see you some time in the future.

Called 8 or 9 times today, left several voicemails and a callback number.....
**EDIT**
Tim called me back and told me about the bad *** storms they had in the area up there. REALLY great guy to actually talk on the phone with. Don't quote me on this, but I "think" he may be back up and running now.
Thanks again Tim for everything.

Alright everyone as Dave stated we had some terrible storms come through the chicago land area a few weeks ago, and of course we lost power like the other million or so people in the area. My house and our shop is located in woodstock, il and its an extremely rural area so we were last on the list and were in a very bad situation. Since being so rural our water is well and without electricity we didnt even have water either. We are still in the process of catching up and getting everything cleaned up but we now are almost back to normal.
To make things even worse was that i was out of town for the few days prior to the storm and once back i was very rushed to make room for some new equipment for the shop so i didnt get a chance to get on here since a few days prior to the storm either
I apologize for any inconvenience this caused to anyone and believe me it was the worst possible time for it to happen as we just took shipment of some new machines 2 days before and were in the process of wiring them as well. I have 156 pm's on here and will start to answer them now but its going to take hours to get to everyone so if you need something asap please call me at 847 636 3552.
Also the address posted is a previous address, my current one is
11114 Ballard Rd.
Woodstock, IL 60098
We will make this delay up to anyone that was wanting to place an order during the down time with running the $99 sale for 2 weeks more as we now have a bunch of cores in stock and ready to get done and shipped with this delay.
Hope everyone understands that we are trying our hardest to catch up. Thanks
