v-max Throttle body
Just wondering if any canadians have installed the v-max tb and wondering which supplier they used? I'm still on the fence on getting one and if i should ship my tb first or wait and receive the v-max first and then send in my core.

I'm on the wait list for one from Jannetty Racing. Sending my core in when I receive mine.

We will be offering our own ported throttle bodies in a week or so to help meet the demands of this product for us Canadians. Stay tuned for pics soon.

We have been shipping the VMAX's to Canada, no problem. I think we have sold 3 or 4 to Canada. With the wait right now I'd keep your throttle body and send your core in when you get the ported throttle body..

How long is the wait right now and how much is it for shipping with core charge?

Wait right now is 2 weeks or less (Jannetty may have them quicker, and is closer to Canada).
Also, there is only ONE VMax CNC spiral ported TB design and it is copyrighted. NO hand ported TB has ever equaled the preformance or driveability the computer designed pattern cut does making any hand ported units outdated. |

Installed my VMax today. It rocks. Worthwhile investment for the cost.

Were still running 2-3 weeks and have no issues shipping to Canada. Just takes longer to get there.
