Default Mamo TB

Installed on my 2017 ZO6. It took about 15 minutes with no problems. Ill take it for a drive as soon as the rain stops, and the roads dry. Here are pictures of the OEM and the Mamo TB.



OEM-Note the ridge

Mamo-note the lack of the ridge, and the smooth down flow of the walls.

OEM and the Mamo

Hope this helps, and gives you an idea of what you get!

What are the gains using the Mamo throttle body?

In for your assessment. This is on my list of mods for the spring.

A great mod. The BMS filter with it helps the hesitation even more.

Installed a Mamo on my Z a couple weeks ago. Already had a Halltech installed prior. Noticeable improvement as far as making the throttle response more linear, but nothing crazy. Glad I did it, but will probably do more later.

My next mod may be the GM made and installed CAI.

I did the Mamo TB 2 weeks ago, noticed a little difference. Today I added the Viteese TB controller and set it at sport 6 level, and all I can say is WOW and D*MN what a difference.On my way home late tonight from work, I was cruising around 35 and punch it. Wheels spun and got a little lose, now I see what people were saying about new tires after installing these two items.I also noticed my gas gauge going down a little faster in the half day that I've had it on,nothing but fun. I'll be playing with the different settings in the coming weeks to find a happy medium, Happy holidays, L8R ZFLASH

Interesting feedback. I thought I read where the ported throttle body corrected the issue that the controller was addressing. Meaning the controller was just a band aid to the real problem which lies in the stock throttle body.

Like I said,Both myself and a friend did the ported Tb mod. Both agree,not sure if we notice difference but maybe? I feel a lot of guys let there heads lie a bit. Put it this way.....Calloway is one of the better c7 mod experts. They will tell you they don’t do ported throttle bodies!!! Do you trust them???? Or the people that are getting 300$ a pop for an hr of labor? Your call.

On my M7 Z06 the Mamo dramatically improved off idle stumble. Its the only reason I bought it and it works. Beyond that I wouldn't make any claims.

I've got the M7 as well and that is the issue I'd like to fix even though I've got the LT1, not LT4. I'd like to know if all the ported units available address this, as some are selling them for a good bit less money. Below was an ad from Edvy Vette where you can get it for $179 once you send in your stocker. I may have missed it, but I didn't see where the Mamo one has a core return. I'm all for spending the money to get the best results, but if all of them "cure" the factory off idle stumble, I'm ok with saving over $200 getting one from them. That was my main reason for posting, was to understand why so many people go for the Mamo when his seems to be the most expensive, if indeed gains are minimal and they all address that off idle stumble condition

Raw Exterior $279 shipped
Painted Exterior (gloss white, gloss black, or flat black) $299 shipped

Raw ready to ship. Painted ships 2 days from order

Paypal Yve@Edgyvette.com

$100 Core refund when we receive your core in good condition.

It doesn't. He buys the TB and ports it and sends it to you. No core return. I'm guessing that's the main reason it's so much more expensive.

It’s well worth it. One will notice a bigger difference with the Mamo TB and BMS filter than the GM CAI for less money.

Callaway uses the bigger blower that utilizes the extra air. Stock intake pipe has been proven to about 620 RWHP. Hence a CAI isn’t really worth the money. You can gain 40 RWHP with Halltech for $600. You can gain 30 with BMS for under $90. I’m referring to a stock tune as well.

I'd like to see the before and after dyno results on said mods. Do you have a sheet?

So.........throw in a 90$ bms air filter with a stock tune and gain 30 hp????? Halarious. Pick up a bottle of octane boost at wal mart also,it’s good for another 30.
