Already ordered though it will be going on with a bunch of other stuff so it wont be on the car for a few months. It will prob be the most shiny thing in my dirty @ss engine bay

 

Any thoughts on the benefits of possibly getting it ceramic coated?

I still don't see the advantage of of the big of a TB.

 

Seem to remember a Lumina or something with a 3400 and a cam, heads, and exhaust runnign quite fast and with the stock TB.

I certainly agree, 65mm should only be used if you plan on having the mods neccassary to complement it. The 62mm would be the max upgrade for anyone who is just looking for mild mods.

 

Yeah you can run pretty good with a stock TB but that doesnt mean something bigger with a nice polished surface if matched to the UIM wont do you a bit better ;-)

Pretty looks: Yes

 

Actual performance gain: You might gain an illusionary increase in ass dyno effect.

A comparison of flow (CFM) should be considered to tell weather or not it is worth any power.

 

In a car's intake system, much like the operation of a manufacturing assembly line all contain variables of a similar nature.

 

Is the throttle body the bottleneck in the operation? Probably not, but if it is even close, there are many other intake flow events that are probably much less efficient that the T/B. Such as upper, and lower intake flow, head ports, valves, etc.

 

Hey, I'm not judging or trying to talk it down, just giving some insight on how I would view that particular mod.

 

Maybe it will encourage you to keep your engine clean. 8)

no shit!!!!! thats where i drew the " fuck that noise " line at

I think the TB is a good place to start, since you know which TB you're using, you can work the manifolds and heads to match that to get the best bang for your buck.

 

start at the top and work your way down, rather then starting at the bottom and working up.

 

Either way you start it's still fine. Congratz on your new toy!
