Gary what is the difference between the old and the new throttle body? The Throttle position Sensor is adjustable? Do you have pics? I was one of the first I think to purchase your TB and curious to see what improvements you made.
Hello Mr. Nader! without going into to many details (my throttle body was duped by another shop. when i first introduced it, so i am sure it will hapen again.....) but as with all of our products, i am always scrutinizing them and trying to make them better. we starting supplying some shops around the world this few years doing private label work for all types of engines and throttle body designs. (The European cars are catching on here in the US too, so we have done some neat stuff with lambos and the like).Even a shifter i designed for the Tremec was attempted to be purchased by another BIG name company. but call it pride, or stupidity, i hung on to it. thank goodness for poor mans patents
in doing so, i had to develope new tooling and that also required more R&D in the design of the throttle body itself. the entire throttle body for the Gen3 Viper went thru a metamorphis inside and out, thru its archeticure down to the machining process. even my CNC's and the software i used have been updated, and what i was using was only 2 years old. Technology in CNC machines and cad-cam software like everything else these days changes almost over night. you can continue with what you have, or move forward with the new technology and in turn develope more cutting edge products. even though the Gen3 Viper is a small market, and not even production anymore, i want our products to still have every available advantage. i guess a throttle body can be like a stereo, cell phone, or tv, the new stuff, )even if it still for the same application) just gets better and better.
Small block chevy heads have been around for decades and decades, but the big names-afr-edelbrock- still try to improve improve the flow numbers, velocity, year after year. i try to follow the same philosophy. Hot rodders, Engineers,gear heads, whatever you call us, dont follow the "if its not broke dont fix it" mentality or we would never mod our beloved Vipers!
i am not the biggest name in tuners, or suppliers, but the little things i do make, i take a lot of pride in, and its more of a pride aspect for me than profit making. but if you make something, it can always be be better, be it cookies or thottle bodies!
