I've seen that a lot of you 2nd generation dodge owners have a "fastman throttle body"on your trucks. My question is, what does it actually do? Is it worth installing it? Do you get noticeable gains in power, or perhaps fuel economy? Is it expensive? Thanks in advance for the answers!

 

its a stock throttle body modified by the fastman to 50mm or others if u want. its one of the best mods for the rams. definate gain in power and mpg from what people say. ill be puttin one on soon

Dan takes a stock tb and modifies it to flow better and last longer. It is a quality piece - and worth the money. It was $225 if you mentioned this site when I got mine (couple years ago) - don't know if its still the same. Call or e-mail him - he's a really cool guy and very knowledgeable. One of the best mods you can do to your truck, and when combined with exhaust and air intake mods and a programmer or reflash of the pcm can really make a difference in performance......

 

Dumb question, but, do you send your existing throttle body, or does he send you the whole assembly?

 

he charges you a core, 80 dollars. After you install your new tb you send back your old one and you get your 80 dollars back

 

its prolly one of the best mods to do.... i would definatly look into it

 

just buy it, you won't be sorry, fav mod I've done to the truck so far.

 

Someone needs to sticky a Fastman TB thread.

 

Yap, one of the easiest mods to install. Dan supplies you with very easy instructions for this project as well as new gasket and a s-bolt for aftermarket round air filters. It took me about an hour to install but thats because I took my time and cleaned everything. If I had to do it again it prolly would take about 20 minutes.

Great mod and well worth it.

 

Fastmans are a thing of beauty. Here is what mine looked like when I got it back.
