Good gain. Just shows what a properly ported tb can do.

Just the fact the OP uses Bo White in the title kind of insinuates it's the best.

I always like to hear commercials comparing themselves to another product maker. This just confirms to me the other product is probably the best.

...oh and I have a Bo White TB on my car too.

Not that Bo's TB needs anymore good reviews to sell product because there are already tons of them on this forum but after coming off a V-max and switching to Bo's there is a considerable difference in the two. I would not suggest anything else. You will only regret it in the end if you don't do it.

Ya I researched the ported tb.....vmax was the common theme here...you were just getting going I believe. I remember reading the debates about hand porting vs machining.....people were getting very upset.

I have a Bo White PTB, #2 in fact. I felt a SOTP with the earlier one and then even with the revised one. My buddy who drag races a lot was surprised at how crisp the throttle response is.
