just wondering if theres an aftermarket tb out for the ecos besides the rsm/reveco one.
i have the reveco on my car and im lookin to upgrade. i know the ls1 fits on the gm manifold but im tryin to stay away from custom work. i checked with bbk awhile ago and they dont make one. am i over looking anything or is there just none out?

a lot of speed shops or machine shops can bore them out for you and make you a new plate. you could always go that route, but i don't know if your custom comment would rule that out,
go with reveco. RSM are a bunch of theives. and WAY over priced
or have yours bored out like lemur said
Im a Xbox 360 fanboy...and damn proud of it!!
I'm interested in this too, how much have you guys paid to have yours bored out from a shop?
They cant be bored out much more then RSM and Reveco already have. He said he already has the reveco one. I too am looking for a larger TB but without going custom I dont think theres anything else
Check out my car....

ok..
i have the reveco one......
reason i dont want to go to a shop to have it just bored out is price... boring the tb is the cheap part.. you guys have any idea how much it is to have a custom butterfly cut/ made to work with a custom bored cavalier throttle body?
nothign wrong with the reveco. ruban is a good guy to do business with. i was looking for a 70-75mm or so.

Just do not go with Mantapart.
Mantapart is a joke. Worst service experience I've ever had.
I just got my revco one but I have not installed it yet. I have heard that it will be worse for n/a motor, but I have heard that it does really good after 4k.

sorry didn't mean to t/j

me and my dad right now are actually working on boring the stock 2.4 t/b out to its max and custom making a butterfly which we already have, ill post pics when i get some time to work on it
There's a guy who lives by me who used to own a Cavalier similar to mine, but all modded out. He bored his own tb and had a plate burned out of aluminum on a laser. I think he said he's selling them now or something. I could check, that way all you would have to do is go to a shop and have it bored and buy a plate to fit. If you want, I can try to get ahold of him.
anyone have a link to the reveco one? i searched and only found auctions on ebay and they say the the tb is not a direct replacement

our throwttle bodies can only be bored to 62mm in the middle... and bottom, as hypsy said.
if you go bigger you start cutting into the passage way for the sensors...

Actually me and Roy found a way to get the plate to 64mm and the backside to 65mm. I'm not gonna say how though because that's one of the things that will make the ones I'm trying to get made, and then sell, special.

grats.... I'd rather keep my 62mm and pay for something like a 70mm then pay another 250 (or whatever you'd charge) bucks for 2mm... but thats me

Well I'm trying to get a guy to make some sleeves so we can use the stock setup and make 70mm plates. It's a lot harder than we expected though.
You can keep your 62mm.....if 3mm gets me an extra 5HP I'll go with it....especially since I won't be paying much.

you wont be paying much because you are making them or because you are not gunna charge a lot for it?

theres actually a turbo sunfire who has a 70mm t/b, its the green GT that somebody posted up with the gold rims that runs 10's i think it was. id like to know how he got that setup because looks like 65 is about the max you could bore it out, if the t/b me and my dad are making up doesnt show any gain or anything oh well, didnt cost me a dime.
