Got my tb it looks good a few blemishes on the mounting area which should be fine because of the gasket but I may have a mm or two shaved off just to be sure... Never got a ringneck he was awnry as hell, but we found a peach fronted conure that's really good and talks.... Although I can't wait to try this tb

ported and polished 68.5 tb on the truck as of 10 mins ago test run seems fine i wanna let the pcm learn this tb and then do some runs with it then remove it and do some with my stock and compare to see if i lost anything or gained anything.....it does not jump rpms like previous owner had issues with yet, it does fluctuate a few, maybe 100 or so rpms which to me seems normal its not very much ill have to plug my s/c in and do some diagnostics with it to see how much its fluctuating its very little though, so stay tuned and when i get a few minutes later ill post some pics of the comparison to the new ported and the oem one.....

Mine will do that with the AC on, takes a bit for it to learn the idle.

Well I took it for a good ride so it could learn the tb and I dunno if I'm right on this but I feel I lost a lil at take off it just doesn't feel like I got that grunt like I did, maybe I'm getting to much air and I got a he'll of a whistle from the intake now. So I'll def be playing with the two this and oem one for a bit to see if I lost or gained for sure so def stay tuned ...... Sp

runs fine, i was just worried i lost a lil grunt at take off, did i reset my pcm correctly by taking the pos side off the batt for 20 mins or so while i changed my oil and did the tb swap? i may still do a swap and do timed runs P&P vs. OEM type runs ya know but other than that i like it at wot....

hmmm at WOT you shouldn't feel it as much as in town or off the line from a standing start. I think VA said that his didn't make a difference in his truck, mine made a huge difference with the addition of the header install.

It feels a lil more peppier around town but I gotta get into it harder maybe I'll like it more after I adjust some settings via s/c and trans tune it'll be better
