Scoop and ported throttle body require tune?
Hey guys quick question. I recently bought a l99 that is supercharged and cammed pushing 613 whp and 56* tq. If I add a intake scoop and a ported throttle body require a new tune? Will I see any gains from it?

Intake scoop, not really understanding what this is.
TB, it should have been done while the car was on the dyno, but from my understanding, Its not really necessary.

I wouldn't waste any money porting the throttle body. Save it for going to a bigger throttle body. The scoop may add a few hp by funneling air more efficiently into the cai, but I wouldn't think that alone requires a new tune.

Ok thanks guys but I forgot to mention that I have those parts already. I'm just considering taking those parts out of my old car and on to the new one

No tune required, the ported TB won't really add any power but should give you better throttle response.

So it would help then right. I noticed it helped my ls3 when I installed it. It felt like the torque came in at a earlier rpm range. I forgot to mention what type of blower I have its a SLP tvs2300 pushing 12 psi. The throttle body is a ported no white stage two

throw them in. ported tb will help throttle response not much gain in the peak hp numbers. scoop will allow you to pull more ambient temperature air instead of the hotter air in the engine bay. both are solid mods to have but not going to change anything where a re-tune is needed

Thanks man. I guess I'll have to Check to see if the TB wasn't ported already. Only downside about the scoop is that the air filter gets dirty alot faster
