hmmmm...so if the TBSS intake manifold works best with the TBSS TB (i.e. DBW), what TB should be used when someone is swapping a TBSS manifold onto a cable style TB truck?

Another thing...if you have the stock TBSS TB ported, does the porting mess up the flow characteristics designed into the TB in order for it to work with the TBSS intake manifold?

Edit: just re-read the TBSS thread,
Quote from Alvin: "Also, the heavy ridging seems to flow and prepare the air better for the intake which has walls and turns that you would not expect."

I guess "how" the TBSS TB is ported is critical, then.

 

F.A.S.T. makes a TB that works runs about 400 bucks but it looks cool

 

Edelbrock makes a 90mm cable TB for 260

 

Does anyone have the part number for the MAP plug extension harness?

Where is the EVAP line going with this new intake?

Is there anywhere for the throttle cable bracket to bolt onto these NNBS intakes?

I'm seriously debating swapping over completely to the L92 setup, only thing I fear is lost torque down low compared to cathedral heads.

 

Big ports don't necessarily mean little torque.......

 

Here's the other thing....the stock L92 intake only flows 250-260 cfm. The LS3 intake flows 290-300 cfm. With that being the case, is there really anything to gain over ported cathedral heads with an intake manifold such as a fast that can match the flow of the ported heads?

 

My install thread

You don't need to use the extension if you just open up the harness a little.

I have some pics of the EVAP i need to clean it up more when i finish the install.

 

For you guys with DBW if you are concerned about the LS2 TB opening backwards compared to the truck then get a LS3 TB it opens the same direction as the truck TB's. I have one if anyone wants referance pics.

 

My new L92 TB works great. I was having problems with the TBSS TB that I got with my intake. Of course I don't have FI, but there was a big difference in how much better the new TB works compared to the old one even though they are the same part number. I couldn't even get the old one to log to 100% open. Don't know what the hell was wrong with it.

 

other than the x-link is there any other way to make it wrk on a drive by wire?
