shadowsniper3006 Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 Hey all, I was thinking of buying a bbk throttle body for my truck. I did some searches but couldn't find a lot of opinions about larger TB's. It worked pretty good on the dodges but thought i would see what you all think. BBK P/N 1757 Thanks!

vtodd82 Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 i believe it was deemed worthless. its only 1mm larger than the stock throttle body i believe. some guys were thinking about fabbing the new ssr throttle body which is 90mm onto a SSS. i would spend your money on something else.

shadowsniper3006 Posted March 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 p&p is that the 90 mm tb? Would a stock n/a motor be able to handle that much more air. The intake velocity would drop way down i would think. You ported your tb your self?? Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad <{POST_SNAPBACK}> he was probly referring to port and polish your stocker. if i went to a 90mm i dont think i would waste time porting it cause its already huge. from my days of front driver import modding we would get questionable at best gains from p&p a tb. if your not careful and get too close to the throttle plate you can actualy f'up your trucks idle ability. i wouldnt recommend this unless youve got some mechanical ability. On a side note if anyone is going to the SSR tb id love to know how it turns out. If someone would like to buy one and give me the dimensions I could even CNC machine out an adaptor for them. Of course Ill save the file and run a bunch of them unlike ImpoSStor with his exhaust tips. LOL anything to be one of kind, much props for that i guess.....

04CHASE Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 yeah i really wish he could get more of those tips too, if only someone could get one and make a new batch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowsniper3006 Posted March 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 well i'm a toolmaker so porting isn't a problem. But it sucks to port your own because you have to make the butterfly a certain size to keep your idle the same. You could go through 2 or 3 butterfly's before getting the right air flow. The dodge guys went through this with our trucks. The butterfly is actualy an oval with engineered clearance. But will our motors handle a 90mm TB? Any one have one on a N/A motor??

shadowsniper3006 Posted March 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 *cough* you could always be the first! *cough* machinists OWN! what kind of CNC do you run? I build plastic injection molds, don't run any cnc's though. Our cnc guys run OKK's, roders, 2 large bars, and Hurco's. Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
