Personally I feel a good ported throttle body (like Soler) is one of the best basic mods you can do on these cars. Pretty much undetectable by the dealer, dramatically changes throttle input in a mechanical way, and lastly it works just fine with the stock tune. Certainly way better seat of the pants feel than a cold air intake or exhaust. Might work really good with that throttle controller. Have you considered that?

But since you talked about getting the Soler ported throttle body, might be a better way to go IF it provided better MPG with curse control on and also when local more as you said seat of your paints, now I only have a V6 not a V8 but so far glad that I don't have the V8 for MPG. Do you know or think if I did replace the stock to a ported throttle body and NOT get that throttle controller? Not sure the cost for the ported throttle body is yet? Thanks again and if you have any suggestions or feedback glad we all could learn from you! Thanks again Christopher P.S I just looked and looks like they don't make a Soler ported throttle body for the 2017 Camaro V6 only the V8 and for the $350 ish to $500 not sure if I can take advantage of that cost as my first upgrade was to remove the stock air filter and replace it with a K&R free flow and think I get 1-2 MPG more?

I have the V6 RS LT2 that has a better then low end stock exhaust that has a better sound to it, but not like what you have. Question what would you think your MPG is on the Hwy & City with those 3 additions if you would say? Again thank you for all of your info and suggestions and this is what this forum is for! Christopher P.S as for my MPG I am using the cars built in guess computer. |

The basic difference between the TB and TC is that one changes the throttle mechanically (TB) and the other electrically (TC). And because they change the throttle via different ways, they both feel different. Personally I like how the TB changes the sensitivity and driveability better than a TC, so I don't personally use one. It's really just a matter of preference. As far as installation they both are super easy. Like a 15 minute job or less. |

I had a pray ported TB and this soler TC on a previous 2018 camaro SS, it made a very noticeable difference in throttle response especially since it was an M6.
i could floor it while shifting gears quickly on back roads and it felt like my brain was still on the back seat of the car as i rocketed forward, lmao. i did have BMR trailing arms and other BMR mods to stiffen suspension and put as much power to the ground.

Just put my Soler Throttle Controller in........holy lord, wow, what a difference. I understand it doesn't make the car faster, but it really does FEEL faster. Dial in whatever mode you want.......still VERY smooth throttle response. Paired with my Tony Mamo V2 Ported TB this thing is the real deal. No doubt THE best upgrade you can get for 95$!
