VMAX CNC Spiral Ported Throttle Body (LSA): $150

As requested by our customers, we have added an option to allow you to purchase a UPS return shipping label for returning your throttle body core. If you purchase a UPS return label, simply place the return label on the original package covering the shipping label that is already present. Then, drop at any UPS store.


Unequaled in performance gains and throttle response as well as improved driveability, these CNC spiral ported throttle bodies are the ultimate in computer aided technology that makes all hand ported units a thing of the past. Average gains of 12-16 RWHP. NO tuning needed but even more performance may be gained with good tuning. Your throttle body core must be received back within seven business days of receiving your CNC spiral ported throttle body in order to be refunded your core charge. We will include instructions for the return with each CNC spiral ported throttle body shipped.

The Science Behind the VMax Spiral Pattern Ported Throttle Bodies

The inner throat of the GM throttle bodies is not a straight thru round tube like is ideal, but an uneven design with dips and humps, each of these variations causes a different type and severity of turbulence that is a hamper on the velocity the flow is capable of, thus less power. The first modification is to straighten this tube as much as possible as limited by the casting itself. The the pattern cut to increase velocity.

The pattern cut does several things that render the hand ported versions obsolete. #1 is the texture breaks up the molecular drag of the air flow along the TB throat as the intake air charge enters. A smooth surface creates friction & slows the flow along the sides creating turbulence (a wet flow bench with a high speed video slowed down shows this). The texture breaks that surface tension (think golf ball dimples and what they are capable of) and allows the intake air to flow equally in the center as it does around the sides. A high polished surface causes the most drag due to the surface tension present (Darin Morgan demonstrated this years back on their wet-flow bench with cylinder head & intake runners). Then, the slight swirl blends the air charge even more so even though the blade size is untouched, the CFM flow is increased as seen on the flow bench, but even more important is the velocity of the intake air charge. Velocity makes power, not just flow.

Bottom line is, the instant throttle response & increased lower RPM range power gains that make this a must have.

How Do We Do It?

From the beginning, our operation was set up to function as rapidly and efficiently as possible. Most of our order processing system is automated which means that an order can be completely processed and ready for pick up within minutes of the order being placed. Unlike many of our competitors, APEX Motorsports is a stocking distributor for most of the brands we carry and not a dedicated drop shipper. This allows us to ship in stock items the same day or next if the order is received after our last pick up. In the event that an item is out of stock, APEX Motorsports has access to multiple extensive distributor networks and can draw on the inventories of dozens of regional warehouses across the country and ship the item from the warehouse closest to you.

APEX Motorsports has another key advantage over our competition. Our physical location. Like Amazon, Zappos, and many other major shippers APEX Motorsports is located in Louisville, Ky. which places us within 600 miles of more than 60% of the United States population. It also places us only a few miles from the UPS World Hub. That means that once your order leaves our loading dock it doesn't have to travel 1-2 days to be processed before being directed to your address. It is done within hours of the order being placed and is on it's way to your door, more than 60% of which aren't very far down the road.

Dang I wish that I saw this a week ago because I just had mine ported by a local shop and put the Rotofab on also.
