Correct, a larger throttle body will not add power... but will add hesitation. |

It would be interesting to see a dyno with a turbo/SC application.

This might be the most over priced product for our cars yet.

The original comment that this was directed towards could have been written more tactfully, but to jump down the guys throat because he didn't go scanning all the threads to determine which TB the guy posted is ridiculous. |

I hope that's a joke. This is the best bang for your buck mod out there next to a tune. Lets see any intake (which are close to the same price and show nowhere close to the gains without messing up the a/f/r), exhaust or any other bolt-on get these kind of gains for the price.

I agree. I haven't seen another bolt on offer that gain at that price.

Cheaper, lighter, more heat resitant. AKA: Better. Everyone says a few pounds here and there don't matter and then wonder how cars have ballooned in weight. |

Question for Nelsmar:
How different was the tune for the PBP vs without PBP? In other words, what needs to be optimized on an existing tune after adding the PBP? |

I made very little changes. I advanced 1-2.5 degree in intake cam profiles. Minor ignition adjustment, and nothing else. But this was against my own map I cannot say for someone else's. As the engine load shifts over to the next column (not completely) it strongly depends on how the ignition map and fuel map 1 column over are. I wanted to spend more time adjusting VVT profiles to see if i could pick up more top end but the shop was already closed up and I had to cut it short. So all in all, not much was changed.

whether you use billet aluminum or 3D printers i don't think is the issue in 'making up for R&D cost'. the materials cost isn't what drives the price, it's knowing what to do with it.
Consider this hypothetical mechanic's invoice for fixing a problem: Tapping on the block with a mallet - $10 Knowing where to tap with a mallet - $200 |
