I have LS2 and LS3 ported throttle bodies in stock. If you'd like to try one, I'll take it back if you find that you can't live with any noise it may create. You'll just need to pay a core charge in addition to the porting cost. If you like it, send back your core and I'll give you a credit on the core charges. If you don't like it, send it back and I'll give you full credit.

I'm running Edelbrocks E-force SC 599HP kit, What type of performance gains can I expect? Just wondering if its worth the $$

Also, my vehicle is a DD, I dont really want to have any downtime. Is there a trade in option where you send me one, and I return the installed one back to you? I would prefer the painted black option as well.

Regards

Steve

Hi Steve,
Unfortunately, I don't have any customers that have done a before/after test on just the throttle body that has a Super Charger set up. But, I would venture to say that if a stock LS3 set up pulls 3-5 additional horsepower from the throttle body porting, an SC set up would do even better because we are helping the pressurized air flow through the throttle body better.

When are you scheduled to have this done in the shop? I do have a ported LS3 throttle body in stock that we can ship you. It just needs to be painted black. You would be billed a $300 core charge, but that would be refunded once we receive your core back.

What is the turnaround time?

My car will be going in for a cam swap around the 12th and I'll take the TB off to ship it to you guys the day it goes in.

For just porting (no painting), turnaround time is 1-2 days and then we return ship FedEx Ground which generally takes 3-4 days.

Or, we can ship one to you right now if you want to pay a $300 core charge which is refundable once we receive your core.

Ah, fantastic.

I didn't know you offered core refunds.

Well I'll let you know when my car is going into the shop (like I said, should be the 12th) and we'll arrange for the TB to be shipped down and I'll return my core to you.

I received my TB and FAST yesterday. They both look great. Thanks again for fixing the brake boost fittings for no labor charge. I'll report back when I install the units on my car.

Glad to hear the parts arrived. I look forward to hearing how you like the extra power once you get them on the car.
