It is $85 shipped for your TB or $185 shipped for a new TB. I love mine too.

The second option is what I got, he buys a brand new tb from the dealer and ports it out for you and your application. I believe this costs around $175.

I think this mod would make a difference on almost any of our trucks. It just takes out one more restriction (or at least lessens it) of the flow path that the air takes while traveling through our engines.
Does your wife have a sister? Wanna sell your old TB?

Just wanted to give an update on this tb. Since I installed it I have put about 100 miles on the truck and the perfomance has gotten better the more miles I have put on it. The throttle is even snappier than it was when I first installed it last week. I find myself spinning out the rear end when I give it gas through corners where it wouldn't do that before. I am liking this tb more and more every time I drive my truck.

Sorry, the wife doesn't have a sister . I haven't decided what I am going to do with my old tb yet but if I do decide to sell it I will let you know.

I would imagine the PCM is "learning" how to utilize the increased airflow over time.
You ought to hold on to the TB, never know when you might need a spare...

You have to email him directly, I believe there is a link on his main page for contacting him. I think he is making the tb's for the hemi's on an order by order basis. That is why it is not listed on his site.
