My address is 1000 Yarnell Place in Oxnard CA 93033. If anyone wants to come to my shop, I will install the part on their car and do a dyno before and after - all testing is FREE if the part makes the power then you pay $369.00 for the part. If it makes no power, I will eat my words. If you increase the volume of air the t-bodies can move and see no increase then that only means the intake is goofed up or MAF is out of whack. There is no question that a larger T-body will move more air. If it moves more air the pressure differential across the manifold must change. This should elicit an increase or decrease in power. BUT IT CAN'T BE THE SAME.

Magnusson just tested a blower kit and the t-body changed the pressure differential between the t-body and blower inlet by 3.3” hg. This in turn was good for an increase in 23hp and 41cfm. When I get the dyno sheets for the 5.0 car I will get back to you all. Granatelli ALWAYS has a Performance Guarantee

 

$369.00 retail

I donlt see how it could combat PC's throttle lag. I am of the belief that it takes a reflash to change Drive by Wire blade ramp

Is the throttle body you manufacture the one offered by Lightning Force Performance?


Thanx,

Paul

 

Honestly, I have never heard of Lightning Force Performance. I was wondering what LFP stood for. I am happy to sell them to them if they call. We give great prices when purchased in bulk. We can’t be undersold because we are the manufacture. Motoblue for example is not the manufacture

 

Difference guys:

BBK, LFP - 62MM T/B

Granatelli - 65MM T/B!

 

He said his was 62mm as well?!?

 

Well this is it...this statement that everyone should want to hear. Now would some random Joe go by there put this TB to the test so we can squash this mystery

I am here and ready.........

 

Wish I was in Cali...I would gladly do it. I really want these TB to be a good mod

 

Would you please post a pic for me of your throttle body?


Tks,

Paul

 

Don't buy a throttle body to combat the lag problem. Get a tune from a couple of guys that have it figured out. Doug @ Bama or like mine from Lidio @ Alternate Automotive. The PC is the problem not the throttle body. Mine is like it has a cable! It is truely awesome!!

Hey J.R.,

I'm in L.A. and very tempted to take you up on that offer...

 

They are a great mod

Quick and easy: I don't know if the TBs make more power or not.

However, if I was to buy one I would buy the Granatelli. Their product quality is awesome and a local speed shop (Lingenfelter PE) recommends them whole heartedly.

I am sure the unit I have is one of yours, but without the branding and color. It's never been installed due to the poor ratings on the board. If you can confirm it's one of yours, I'll work out the time to come up.


Paul

 

ah, looks just like the central coast mustang one I have on my car.Black anodized with the brass blades...

 

I'll order once someone goes by the shop.

 

I've made the offer to go there, if some agreement can be accomplished.
