LS4 Throttle body install
heres some shots from todays work all taken with the iphone

Its touchy as HELL. I'm having my difficulties trying to tune it and learn how to drive with it.

that one reason is why I haven't purchased one and installed it yet. I don't like the idea of either off or full throttle for my DD. And having the tvs won't help much at all either. Good luck with that.

I hate the way it is below 2500 rpms, i couldnt love it more above that, at 80mph on the highway it just feels like your riding a rocket
As for IAT i didnt seem to have any issues today it was 20 over IAT1 for everything but the 7000rpm blast in 3rd where it got up to 149
ALso part of the problem im sure is that I took off the boost cut I had in first gear, I was running with only 40% boost before I think im going to turn that back on.

I've been at work dying to post. LOL. I was gonna tell you to cut a **** ton of boost in 1st gear to make it DD friendly.
Get some slicks for the track and have a track flash with 0 boost cut to haul ass.

The coupler was tricky I managed to jam on the regular 3inch fujita elbow onto it
I'm cutting even more boost out of first hopefully it helps it starts at 20% and ramps up to 50 I think
Also another thing that sucks I went through a ton of methanol in just a day

ls4 tb is a good mod and you'll get used to driving with it. mine just has the basic install tune and no fine tuning and i am just fine with it - took a month or so but i can drive it just like i did before

Well thats good that you get used to it, that gives me some hope, I love the thing above 2500rpm though, you couldnt beat the smile off my face when im driving it
im still needing more boost cut in 1st im making 5psi at 1750rpm which is just too much with that touchy of a throttle
