When the answer is found , we need to make a sticky of what throttle body works best with the Xlink and boost .

Plus I would like to know which factory throttle bodies have the strongest motors , unless it's just a different spring bieng used .

Too much emphasis on a ******* throttle body, put some gold foil wrap on your intake to keep the heat low instead of trying to shove air into your engine while all it does is stay stagnant. Its like having a baby with a 5 inch mouth but a 2 inch esophagus, no matter how big the mouth is, the food he can only swallow would be dependent on the 2 inch esophagus, in this case that would be your cylinder head/intake manifold. good day

Well we gave the wot tps a try and set it to 97% while also taking the time to change the tables associated with it and no luck. Unsure what the issue is, but I am tossing the stock TB back on. Thanks for the help everyone, I may try and tackle this at a later date but now I just want to drive and enjoy my new truck!

Here was test after changing wot to 97%

Lmfao a baby with a 5" mouth? I can't argue with you man. Many of us have hit 9s with stock TB. You tune for a living and ******* with trucks is just a hobby to most of us. I think you should run the tuning section of forum since you're clearly smarter and lowering wot tps for original poster didn't work.
