Getting warmer :hmm: That would actually probably be closer to our cost based on how their discount structures work. But, we can eat Ramen for a few months if you guys want to pay $399.

I would question whether or not they had tuned that test truck after installing the throttle body. Normally the larger diameter throttle body is a worthwhile upgrade in conjunction with other modifications which leads me to believe they didn't tune for the second dyno pull. But if $599 is the price tag that's a tough one to swallow, no matter what.

It is worthwhile if you are looking for top end numbers only (drag strip), but if you exceed the cfm requirements of the motor's design, you just sacrifice the bottom end for a little more HP. Without the A/F ratio being included in the chart, there is no telling & a pretty useless graph for determining actual gains........but good for selling a BIGGER throttle body, I guess.

Agreed 100% on principle. I would like to see more dyno testing before I make any further judgment. I think for the highly modified this would be a worthwhile mod, no comment yet on stock or near stock motors.

I had the same throttle body on my 6.1 jeep... not worth it! Put the cash towards something else!
