First off, welcome to RamForum. Our 85mm throttle body will work well with your current mods. Do you have any plans to add a tuner or headers down the road? Aside from your daily commute to work, how else do you use the truck? Any "spirited" driving?
If you have any plans to add headers, then I would go straight to the 87mm throttle body as it will show better gains in the end. Otherwise, the 85mm is perfect. You can expect to see an increase in throttle response and about a 10-12hp gain in the mid-upper rpms. Many customers even see a slight increase in mileage on the highway.

THe only thing that I would add on down the road is a tuner. That would complete the mods. I want to try and keep the mods limited.
I just drive the truck to work and home, and occasionally beach trips on the weekends.

In that case, the 85mm would be perfect for your truck. We have about 20 of these in stock right now, and all TB's ship same day.
