I have e 1996 Ram 1500 with the 5.9 Magnum in it. I have quite a few performance upgrades done to it and now am looking into getting a aftermarket throttle body. Has anybody installed one on there truck? Was it worth it? If not, what performance upgrade would you go with next?

Who makes the throttle body and where did you get yours at? And how much you pay for it? Did you notice more hp increase or torque?

This is the guy your looking for. Try this.
I've been putting this off for quite a while. I want to get one for when i do the plenum replacement.
This guy joined this forum. I bought my TB from him to and im very happy with it. Ive referred him to a couple other guys on here and i think weve all told him about the forum and he eventually decided to join it. I believe his username is the name, or close to, the one he uses on Ebay.

I went with Fastman on my 99 and was extremely happy with my decision on it. I can't say how much but you'll notice a good little change from a tb swap.

this is the only picture I took of it
