Guys, not often I really get pumped about things but I just installed the ported throttle body for the 2.9l on cody's red truck. I cannot express how much different the truck feels. ANYONE wanting more performance for very little money needs to try this mod. I stake my reputation and word on it. I am not kidding you, it responds as well as my 3.7L. I have an order into James for another ported tb for the 3.7L and should recieve it shortly. In addition to the port James adds bearings instead of bushings on the butterfly and greases everything liberally prior to sealing things back up.
This my friends is the real deal. Dont waste your time and money on CAI or filters without trying this. I am impressed to say the least.

I was I had gotten one at the NESM last year, but I had already bought a bunch of stuff during the meet!

How much were they again?

Thanks for the Kudos Clint.:thumbup:
For more info about the ported throttle body. Click Here: Performance PCM Tuning
Let me start by saying I'm not looking to start a pissing match with Jeremy or any of the other admins/mods/founders.

The link provided makes note of butt and DYNO testing showing 6 to 10hp gains. I have read every single post in this thread. I have even gone as far as to piece together what blunt1 was saying prior to his posts becoming periods from peoples replies with his posts quoted. I have made every attempt I can think of to find these dyno results and can't find them posted here, on the NEC site where the link is, or elswhere.

I'm not doubting anyones testimonials, but butt dynos are far from accurate ... ask any owner of a stock Civic with a 3 foot wing and a box full of stickers.

Is the DYNO sheet mentioned posted anywherew it can be viewed?

I will say yes! One you can have the torque management removed(more power) and the speed limiter removed.

Oh trust me it will be worth it, especially once Gerry works his magic on your PCM!

Oh hell I'm totally involved in all this.

Right before SESM James mailed me a ported throttle body. Installed it at the meet. Steve tuned the truck the next day. Sadly I didn't drive the truck much to really test out the new addition. I wish I had. I know it made a difference though!

The tune was the wake up call though. Oh. My. God. First off, get rid of torque management. It was the bane of my existence. It's horrible! Second, I don't care who tunes your truck, but get it tuned ASAP. It's immediately noticeable!!! Make sure you let them know what all you've done. CAI, PTB, what octane you use (I stayed at regular).
