JTS Venom Throttle Body results.

[Trainman]

Went to DC Performance today to test the new JTS Venom throttle body. Special thanks to Dan, Lyle and Chris at DC Performance, they even had donuts waiting. Most people know I had the BBK throttle body and like a lot of people it would fast idle on me , especially after some freeway driving. The JTS Venom throttle body did not stick once, even after the 100 mile drive home, perfect idle quality after pullling off the freeway. Crisp throttle response as well. We made 4 pulls with the BBK after arriving there and a cool down period. Baseline pulls were made at 10:33 am, temp 67.5 degrees and humidity was 8%. The pulls with the JTS Venom TB were at 1:18pm, temp 72 degrees and humidity was 18%, so the air wasn't quite as good as for the baseline pulls. All pulls were on a Dynajet dyno, so I was turning my stock wheels with 325-40-22 tires on the back. The JTS Venom showed gains throughout the entire rpm range, not one negative. Very pleased !!!!!!:rock:Here are the results:

RPM BBK HP JTSV HP Gain BBK TQ JTSV TQ Gain
2700 241.98 245.60 3.62 470.71 477.70 6.99
3000 267.72 270.23 2.51 468.69 473.10 4.41
3500 329.02 332.57 3.55 493.71 499.04 5.33
4000 394.11 397.01 2.90 517.46 521.26 3.80
4100 407.70 411.27 3.57 522.25 526.83 4.58
4500 445.98 450.74 4.76 519.94 526.08 6.14
5000 477.19 483.11 5.92 501.25 507.49 6.24
5400 489.71 496.26 6.55 476.32 482.68 6.36
5500 487.13 494.59 7.46 465.20 472.32 7.12
5600 486.21 493.27 7.06 456.03 462.65 6.22
6000 480.26 486.25 5.99 420.41 425.65 5.24


All results SAE corrected.
Peak torque reached at 4100 through 4500
Peak horsepower reached at 5400, held good through 6000
Uncorrected numbers were 509.53 RWHP @ 5400, 540.92 RWTQ @ 4100

So there you have as good a comparison as possible. I will be testing the JTSV TB on either Feb 18 or 19 at the first Famoso test and tune of the season.:rock:

[wesalbert]

Nice increase :rock:

 

[SrtBrad]

Awesome numbers Jerry. Sorry I couldn't make it down to DC. I was replacing a main line pipe under a house today so my day was $hitty!

 

[SRT2SLOW]

i guess am selling my bbk.....

 

[ramsrt711]

Did you do any modifications to the venom TB or was it straight out of box.

 

[FATJACK]

Great work Jerry, thanks for the effort!! Good information.

 

[Dom426]

how long was your cool down???before the pulls

 

[hankthetank]

was it an anodized tb or just plain aluminum?

 

[Trainman]

To answer the questions: JTSV was ported. Cool down was about an hour, but engine warmed to operating temperature then 4 consecutive pulls back to back each time. Took the best of the 4 pulls each time. TB was not anodized, just (jsut for Tony) plain aluminum.

Great write up, thanks for the info, I can't wait until i get my 10 out of storage and get my TB installed! :burnout: i'm glad to see good measurable results.

I thought that the JTS came ported, or polished, or am I crazy?:dontknow:

I tried to find the old thread from Tony to double check . . . . . .

informative review thanks for the work and dedication to all involved:five:

Great review!

Was your BBK ported or polished? Am I understanding correctly that you ported the JTSVP unit after receiving it?

I was just told by Tony that my TB was not ported, just a couple of rough edges smoothed out, so it was close to the production piece.

[Dom426]

Thanks for clarifying. I appreciate how thoroughly you document everything. It makes it easy for us to use your information when modding our trucks.

Now if just 10 of you can come up with $1,000 each( or 1000 of you with $10 each) I will be able to test and THOROUGHLY report the results of the 650 HP Heads and Intake package from Chrysler.:rock:
