Ported Throttle Body...anyone have one?

Are these worth it? How much? Who has the best price and performance?

I have one from Pray. However, I have a stock ported throttle body and not one of the new 95mm ported ones. I initially noticed a lot more tip in throttle response but, I did not notice any more power. But, for something like that, it all comes down to the sum of its parts. Together with other items that promote air flow, this will only help.

Just do an MSD and 95mm combo. You will pick up enough power to feel what you are spending your money on.

The MSD will void your warranty...Is the Ported STOCK TB worth it if you want to maintain your warranty?

I had a ported TB on my 2015 SS sedan. Maybe a little better response at tip in but to do it again... I would not.

3-5rw from the porting and more throttle response. But it is a supporting mod for a ported IM. If you are staying with the stock heads and cam then the MSD shows minimal gains if any on the dyno and track and is a ton more money over the ported stock stuff. The ported MSD will close the gap some but in the end will be minimally faster. The ported MSD/95mm TB is even more money than that . The best we have seen with the ported MSD over my ported stock stuff on the track is about 1mph and almost a tenth if the car is set up properly.

If you are an M6 then I can see possibly swaying towards the ported MSD/95mm TB if you are a highway roller.

If you plan on doing H/C at some point then the ported MSD/95mm TB is the hands down winner. No question about it. I am seeing gains of up to 40rw on H/C cars over my ported stock stuff which has shown out on a ton of cars now to be much faster than the stock IM/TB.

Another benefit to the stock ported stuff is it can slide by techs for warranty work.

I port and sell both so I am completely agnostic to which you chose to go with in the end. Just giving you the facts from the hundred or so cars I have done now.

How much HP/TQ at wheels from the ported TB with a stock setup except K&N drop in filter with manual trans.

Who makes the 95mm throttle body? Is there a recommended brand?
