Fastman's ported tb was a lot cheaper, I believe it was something in the mid 100's to get him to buy a new one, port it and ship it. Then I was able to sell my stock one for $60.

The hemi tb is cheaper, at least it was when I got mine done. The best way to find out is to email him and tell him what you want, that is what I did.

I think it would be worth it. The ported tb is one of the mods that I found to make the biggest difference in day to day driving.

I was thinking superchips because I thought it was the one on here that most people used and were satisfied with. Guess not.

When you say makes the most difference in day to day driving, how so? Gas mileage? What exactly does a ported throttle body do? Allow more air flow?

When I say day to day driving I mean that I can feel it in terms of pep in the throttle response. It just made the truck a little snappier when I am driving around town.
