No don't think its gone that high. No big deal with the warm up. Just surges up for maybe 5 sec. before settling down again. The mild take off surge at 1800 to 3000 RPM is annoying though because its a manual and I like to wind it out smoothly up to speed before going to second, the stumble is annoying. Hopefully that will smooth out. Probably about 130 miles on it now.

I am very interested in the 95mm TB. I plan on doing a Ported MSD intake manifold and ported heads down the line. Are the 95mm TB that you plan on modifying not ported any bigger? and just modified to allow the lower end to be more responsive? I would be interested in a modified TB that would increase the overall diameter and power in the top end range while still being very responsive in the low end. The car is a 2019 10 speed so the car will be in the higher RPM range most of the runs and that is where i would need the TB to be able to flow as much as possible yes the lower end is great with regards to response, but I want to maximize the air at WOT.

Nice video!
Awesome looking SS as well.

Just some construction feedback here:

I could see the difference, but I could not "Feel the Difference!"

You need a video with the sound from the car and not musical instruments for an orchestra.

Need to do a drive by with a caption of what is being highlighted with the drive by, what are you promoting.
I was left with...so what is this promo video about?

If anything, a Dyno showing the difference on TBs going side by side...which I think you might have done. However, keep the sound of the car's exhaust on the mic not the music.

Maybe it's just me, but I just hate it when there's music playing as a car is being show cased. I'd rather have someone talking about the car...the music does nothing for me, but than again, it's probably just me, and it's definitely not about me...I'm just a by stander.

Agreed...all I heard was music. No car performance.

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet but if you're running a throttle controller make sure to re-calibrate it with the new/different TB or better yet bypass during the learning process. I personally removed it but ended up reinstalling it after a few weeks as I missed the immediacy of the response. I actually think it's even more sensitive now with the Soler TB I used to leave it on SP5 but now SP2 - 3 gets it done (Vitesse).

Please do another video showing the actual performance of the car.

Did your surge smooth out or do you still have it? Mine is not as bad but still have it after almost 2oo miles. Hoping to get it completely surge free.

Mine seems to be smoothing out as I put more miles on it.

The way I see it, the TB isn't strictly about performance. It's about a better pedal feel, that's hard to show such nuance in a video.
