I am trying to boost my hp and want to get a wider throttle body for my 2013 5.7 L, anyone have any suggestions on size and maker?

I believe that will depend on which preformance parts you are adding.

I just installed the fastman. Like everyone said, it ain't much. Even if you could dyno to prove it.

The major thing that I noticed is that I now roast the tires if I go from a dead stop. No smoke plumes or anything but it does spin.

I run an exhaust valve and nothing improved when opened. As matter of fact open exhaust makes it slower. I need to prove it on a dyno sometime.

IMHO you will see the greatest improvement regarding a throttle body when you use it in conjunction with other mods ie; CIA, exhaust/headers and a tuner with a custom tune. As a stand alone mod I don't think you will see a tremendous amount of improvement. Moe's Performance sells a good throttle body that many on this forum use.

I forgot ...I have an AEM dry filter and a modified air box with a tube that sucks air behind the bumper. Not a hot air intake.
