Just curious guys, I just bought a ported TB for my car. I was curious how much you think it will effect the VE. What is a good place to start. Right now my VE is dead nuts on. How far should I move the VE table as my start for VE tuning with the new TB.?
I'd suspect a max of 1~2% change at high airflow values. Aside from that, it shouldn't change things all that much.
I agree with Jeff. When I ported my TB the only changes evident were in the 95 & 100 kpa cells. This was due to my TB being a restriction under WOT conditions.
Oh wow, smaller than I thought. I've heard claims and seen dyno sheets showing 7-10 hp gain from the ported throttle bodies, so I was thinking that to gain 10 hp you'd need more than just a percent or two gain in VE. I guess only time will tell.
7/350=2% ;)Quote:

I was dreading it really, because I probably spent 40 hours or something honing this one in.
