I was never told you gain HP as I was told you gain throttle response !!!!
So you did both Manifold and TB? What other mods are you running?

I'm not doubting ADM's work at all. All the work i've seen has been top notch. What is the going price for a little better throttle response?

So $300+ for both? That doesn't sound like a good "bang for the buck" mod, to me. That's the price of a tuner, a good set of lowering springs, a good rear sway, or several other mods.

From everything I've read, the TB porting is responsible for improved throttle response. I only installed the ported intake.

As for throttle response, my car is tuned from JRE and it is very responsive. Ted told me that under 3K rpm that even in MT cars there is torque management, which he fixed...

If you ever did anything to the camshaft, you would change that comment. you don’t gain HP because the stock TB and intake is already max out when it comes to air flow. bigger cam means more air needed.

I'm not here to discuss pricing as I dont remember what it cost to do that however if wasnt bad for both.

I dont know how you would do it because normally your factory intake/throttle body is the core and a New one is installed.

PM Andy/admperformance or FreemaSSon and ask they for yourself.
While your at it have them explain what to expect they wont BS you.

PLus I never said you doubted there work just stating in my last post what
both of these mods do I seriously dont think its about the HP at all as most put it to be.

I could be wrong.

We charge $75 for throttle body porting. There should be a gain of a few hp with either mod, also throttle response is better as others have mentioned.

So Im running LT's, Cat Back and ADM Race, If I slap a ported TB on do you guys think I will need to get a re-tune?

So there is no optimization to be had tuning with a Ported TB installed?

Do y'all offer any type of core/exchange pricing?
