BBK Throttle Body

[nikhsub1]

So I still have the BBK TB on my truck - I only get a CEL now like, once a year with it. Too lazy to swap it out, no issues besides that but also, never really felt an improvement either.

Bingo, same. Just too lazy to swap back the OEM.

Do you have other mods that would benefit from a wider throttle body?

At worse I would assume that the air comes in at a lesser press of the pedal since there's a larger opening vs the amount of throttle applied. So power should come on sooner I would think that is a benefit since you use less effort on the pedal.

According to my Draggy results it was worth a .10 in Quarter mile 10 hp? maybe

Yeah. Intake, FMIC, turbo inlet tubes, down pipes and exhaust. Basically the stock turbos are moving as much air as possible. Honestly my truck moves out- power comes on almost instantly.

I wonder if tuning is an issue here. More air may not be of much benefit with a canned tune. Are those who are tuned by Goose seeing a benefit with an aftermarket TB, or do they have the same issues?

Good info here I was ready to pull the trigger on a BBK TB but I'll just use it in a turbo manifold upgrade...

I have a goose tune so... he tuned my truck with the TB on there.

When we buy things to squeeze out every pony something is better than nothing and every little thing good counts.

I'm just trying to accumulate bits here and there I can add on in a short amount of time much better it goes to something I can keep vs spending it on a tank of fuel that is gone in a week buying starbucks
