BBK Ported 85mm Throttle Body
It's in great shape. It DOES require a tune due to porting. Claims to be 8whp. $400 FIRM

How did you port it and did it make a difference?

Dang dude. Why not just get the tune revised? Or was it other issues?

I did not port it. I honestly don't know what the gains are versus one that's not ported, but I figure if I have to revise my tune, I may go with a 90mm.

Oh, so you bought it ported already? Or your saying that it requires porting to be effective,

Both. I bought it ported and it requires a tune.

So to clarify, are you saying that this has been ported beyond the 85mm that it comes from BBK already? If so, what is the new diameter?

Doesn't look as if there was much of a change in diameter, but simply a change in surface texture.
