I just cleanded my throttle body, boy did it make a difference. If you haven't done this yet I highly recommend it.

 

If you really wanna make it stand out take it to a metal polishing place and they can make it glow!!!!!!!! Everyone that sees mine asks what aftermarket throttle body I have. Little do they know it is the stock piece polished to a mirror finish. This is before the Whipple of course

 

man!! that thing is sharp... very nice.

 

What did you use to clean it? Any recommendations?

Well I actually meant with the performance, however your cold air intake looks great.

 

what did you use to clean the TB blades, was it that 3M stuff that Doug recommended

 

Proberly get hammered for this, but I used the STP Throttle Body Cleaner.

 

Did you remove it or do it on the car?

 

I just unbolted it, left the connections connected.

 

At what mileage did you do this clean?

What was the condition before you scrubbed it?

 

before and after pics maybe?

 

Sorry no pics. I have 11,000 miles on my car. But the issue was the CAI, I believe that the build up of gunk was from the oil from the filter. So depending on how much oil you put on the filter and how long you let dry afterward (after cleaning the filter) will determine how often you have to clean it. I was having that idle problem that doug described some time ago. I didn't know I had a loss of power until after I cleaned it. Hope that helps.

 

No, but I sure could see the dirt build up.

 

Sorry Antdog. I just assumed you meant the outside. Now you got me wanting to clean the inside.

 

No problem, LOL
