Ported TPI Throttle Body

a couple of weeks ago there was an item on Ebay for this... $169 + $60 refund for your Throttle body... anyone catch this, still have it or know anything about the company??

I thought I had saved the info, but didn't...

I'm not reallly sure, must be somebody porting them out to a larger size (ie 52mm). Although, I would put the money somewhere else. There's alot bigger restrictions you need to take care of before you have to worry about the Stock 48mm Throttle body.

Still wouldnt recomend a 52mm TB on a 305. Maybe a 48mm if your really wanting one.

I've read lots of info showing a 48mm flowing enough for upper 300's in HP.

I'll get a 52 at some point, but I'm not gonna break the bank for it. The money is more useful elsewhere for now!
