Default 90 mm Throttle Body??

Do you gain anything from this on a stock engine?

Does it fit right up with no alterations?

Need aditional programming to make it efective?

The LS2 in the C6 has a 90mm TB.

So, you've already got one!!

Yep. No need to change what you already have.

FYI...I even changed mine out for one already polished when I was having my car dyno-tuned at RevXtreme in Tampa and guess what????
NO DIFFERENCE IN HP AT ALL! Ryan dyno'd the car, IMMEDIATELY changed the TB with one already polished(and man, was it SMOOTH!) and immediately re-dyno'd the car again with about 15 minutes down time and there was NO HP gain!
Mods:
1. Melrose Headers
2. Random Hi-Flo cats
3. x-pipe
4. stock mufflers
5. Calloway Honker intake
6. 8.5 mm wires with socks

If I had a cam and head work done, etc. then it would've helped but not going into the engine, no difference.
