Just picked it up about an hour ago, got home slapped the **** on and reset my computer. I never installed my 85mm ptb but I can say going from stock to this made a whole world of difference. I'm absolutely loving the better throttle response and its definitely getting off the line faster. Having this coupled with my (crappy) Afe intake, high flow cats and tuner on my truck just makes it a whole new beast. Can't wait to get the custom tuning and gear ratio swap and see how that affects it.

Thanks again Matt for the great customer service and products. You definitely have a repeat customer here.

Thanks Cole. Did your factory TB have much oil on it when you pulled it off?

Funny you mention that Matt. I noticed a light, clean coat of oil on the back of my throttle body when I did my swap. I have a catch can installed as noted in my mod list. What REALLY surprised me was on my 07 Charger I used to have. Thanks to the EGR, by the time I swapped to a ported throttle body, there was a layer of oil that was burnt black as tar. Both of my Hemi-powered vehicles have been catch can equipped. Wonder if that oil was residual from the first 500 miles my Ram went without a catch can?

A local cutomer just installed a catch can on his truck last month. This is what he poured out of it the other day after only 1000 miles...

The light coat of oil on the rear of my OEM throttle body was still yellow in color, not like the oil that collects in my catch can. Maybe it was some of the factory fill left on the OEM TB after all.

I have a catch can and when I installed the new throttle body my factory one was still really nasty.
