Anybody put a ZR1 thorttle body on their Z06 yet
Seems like a few others have bought a ZR1 TB from Cajun @ Edgyvette and I got one on my way myself. Just wondering if anybody got any dyno numbers,seat of the pants feeling,etc to see how much they gain going from the stock 87mm to the 95mm of the ZR1

I have one waiting to test out on my 2015 Z06. But it is 1500 miles away. Hope to be there soon and test it out. I have seen dyno's where the 95 mmTB performs very close to the 103'tb's and much better than the stock one..

If anybody can update with some sort of data on this subject that would be great. I would love to buy one but want to see if it's worth the extra money versus a regular TB.

It does require a spacer plate. And with the plate it will sit at a 11* angle if that matters.

They mean CLOCKING which means turning on its mount not degree's. It doesn't matter.

I just did the swap and it was a holy bitch getting that sucker to mount to the coupler that comes with my halltech. I would suggest going with a bigger coupler to avoid having a 2 man team to get it on.

Did you add to a stock car? Then how does it run?

Go to ictbillett.com and they have pictures mounted. The throttle body is tilted over so that the throttle plate is app on a 45 degree angle from horizontal. You can see this clearly in the pictures on the ictbillett website. This is necessary it appears for clearance as the 95mm TB is physically different. Doesn't make any difference what angle it is mounted at as far as performance is concerned as it is only a throttle plate. I doubt it makes much difference in performance on a stock or near stock car. increase boost, headers & midpipe, bigger intake, cam and it is probably a different story.

Based on that pic, any concerns with hood clearance. Looks like the electrical connections sit above the SC. I have a Halltech and wonder how hard the attachment is? 3Z's idea of heating the coupler with hot/boiling water to soften it up may work or even add some liquid soap to help it slide on easier.

There are two different adapters from ICT Billet. One clocks the throttle upwards. The other just slightly rotates it.
