Default LS1 Throttle Body Special

We are currently offering our ported Ls1/Ls6 ported throttle bodies for $80.00 on an exchange basis.

With our ported throttle body you will see greatly improved throttle response and bottom end and mid range torque feel which equates to a significant “seat of the pants” gain. Your vehicle will be 10 times more fun to drive and your throttle response will be greatly increased. The car will feel much "torquier" in the bottom end and mid range. Many liken the difference to taking about 350lbs out of the vehicle.

If you would like to order, just call us at 813 476 7364 - we accept Visa, MC, and AMEX or payal at fastprom@tampabay.rr.com

There is a core charge of $125.00 that is refunded when we receive your undamaged core back. You can also ship us your throttle body directly, allow 2-3 business days for turn around.

Our address is:
Fasterproms
19103 Sunlake Blvd
Lutz, FL 33558


To order please cal 813 476 7364, we accept VISA, MC, AMEX and paypal at fastprom@tampabay.rr.com


Thank you
Dan

We just dropped the price, and will most likely keep it until then, but if not just PM and remind me of this special and we will honor this price.

A tune isn't necessary, but those table should have already been addressed in the tune when the SC was installed.

Here are a few tips to bring out the most response from your ported TB. We have found these specs to help bring out the most from the manifolds and TBs in LS1/2/3/4/6/7/9 vehicles. Throttle response will be greatly improved and the vehicle will have much more of a "torquey" feel through the bottom end and mid range.


Engine>Fuel control> Power enrich> Enrichment rate set to 2.0
Engine> Spark control> spark retard> Burst knock set to 1.5






Engine Diagnostic> General> Tps Sensor> Set Max airflow parameters to 4.1 gms/cyl
Engine> Torque management> general> Maximum TQ set to 639ft lbs
Engine> Torque management> general> ETC max set to 100% from 10% on



There is a very remote chance that those of you with ported TB's may set codes, but in the event that you do: these codes should be addressed see HPT1:
It is not detrimental to delete these codes whatsoever.

There is much more that we can do to bring out the best tq of the vehicle with a custom tune.

Thanks for posting the screen shots above... I'm going to keep this for when I put my engine back together (being fully polished)

I've got a Shaner TB and hptuners.... so your tips above will surely be used.


I've been thinking about pm'ing you about buying a good base tune or screen shots of settings that I can put in my '01z without sending the pcm.

If I didn't already have a tune, I'd consider this. After my Chuck COW tune my throttle response is almost too touchy so I wouldn't want any more response than I already have.

I have a 97' LS1. What difference would i get with this TB and an LS6 Intake? Already have a Halltech Stinger CAI. I'm also gonna send out for a mail order tune. Curious on what #s I could get by adding that setup???

The LS6 is typically good for 10/10 hp/tq over the ls1 manifold, the tb will not net any power gains, just a lot of throttle response and feel like it's more powerful.
