I have the Cordova tb and like it a lot , great throttle response , I am gonna try the maxbore unit next and see if there is any difference to be had ….
Hey @metroplex. I appreciate your feedback on these topics. I've been reading and researching about TB upgrades and I have to wonder if air density also plays a role. I live in Colorado over a mile above sea level and most of the time we're much more concerned about just getting as much air into the engine as possible since the air density is so much lower to start with.
I've pretty much given up on any non-turbo engines here as they just can't breath (like my 2010 Sport). So any mod that can potentially provide more air would be a plus up here.
The throttle body won't solve your problem with air density. If the TB was a restriction, and that is a big hypothetical if, then it'd create a pressure drop that would require the turbos to work a tiny bit harder to meet the required torque and boost.
We drove through CO in the girlfriend's Malibu 2.0 GTDI that makes almost 300 hp with my tune, but at something like 10k-12k ASL she noticed it had almost no power even at WOT at that altitude.
nah,im not installing them old part again,second im not fooling around with that tuner thing.i know how to factory the tune and install the performance tune and see a few thing in the data sitting like boost, ect, volt,not trying to change something and mess it up,
Well you can run some datalogs to see how much airmass you are flowing with your tune and all those mods. You don't have to change anything, just run what you got. I've done enough baseline datalogging to know what the stock setup flows.
i have to learn the programmer a little better.i didt want to mess around a change something,and it be wrong setting
