Default Any serious throttle bodies for our cars?

Was hunting for larger throttle bodies and couldn't find any.

Are there any out there and any that make any power?

I'm slowly working on my 350s N/A build up. This would seem to be a relatively inexpesnive next step.

Tommy Kaira sells ITBs but you'll need custom engine management to go along with it. I suggest FI instead.

May not be exactly what you're looking for but it's worth taking a look....

I don't see 350evo's on their website anymore ????

350EVO's didn't cost all that much

after you send back your stock TB, it was like $250 or something - for 3-6hp up top

that's about the same $ vs hp gain you get on an exhaust

gotta get an ECU flash to make use of it though, but many people have one anyway

exactly what i was about to say. on a n/a car there is no need to get a bigger tb. however on a heavily modded fi car they may need to do this.

I had 350 evos and it was not as bored out as proflows. Also when i had 350evos it through a check engine light so i went with proflows after. Proflow is great they had my core back to me in 3 days and dam do they do great job, and i have no check engine light on. Ask for Jim at proflow he really knows whats up.

zmego, Proflow does the boring for 350EVO....350EVO just offers a core exchange. That's not to say that the Proflow isn't bored out more than 350EVO (though I think we determined in another thread that it wasn't), just that Proflow DOES do the boring for 350EVO TB's.
