<<<@!1!@>>>

Here you go Rob, made this just for you buddy!

I think I would be really happy if I can hit mid to low 11's. I honestly think 10's is a long shot but I sure as hell wouldn't complain about it!

Sounds awesome. Intake looks great too!! You didn't mess around man. Got that 4" intake on there in no time lol. It's hard to tell in the video but double check that the intake tube didn't separate from the silicon coupler that joins it to the tb.

Is that your 102 tb? I thought you bought the tpis?

And with your parts list the truck likely has 10's in it. That's where self tuning and tweaking can go a long way though.

I saw that after shooting that vid - got it adjusted.

Yes, I did have and install the TPIS w/my current xlink 4.0. Truck wouldn't run properly and kept going into reduced engine power mode, so I took it off and installed a 90mm LS2 silver blade.

If you still have the TPIS contact Ray(supersub on here) at Super Street Perfomance in MN. He can now calibrate the various billet TBs properly so that they are within GM specs. Tuning 102mm Throttle Bodies - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums - Camaro5.com

For the time being the 90mm isn't much of a restriction. with a smaller pulley and the heads though... different ball game.

He just recently received the testing unit. I believe the TBs in the Camaro5 thread were the first ones he setup with it.

Oh cool. I haven't spoken to him in a while but when mine failed several months ago, he told me he would come up with a solution so I would be able to run a 102 in the future. He actually sent me the 90mm that's on my truck now as a loner, so I'll have to give him a call. I was kind of pissed because he assured me the TPIS would work before I bought it, so I machined my blower opening to 102 before i even bolted it on, then found out it wouldnt work...so glad he got it worked out!

Just left him a message so I'll hopefully get my TPIS back
