Anyone running the PF TB with N2O?

I just got mine, and should have it on in the next day or two. What kind of gains did you guys see from it? I'm hoping to see a big jump N/A, and figure anything that helps N/A, helps when spraying. I have heard good things from the S/C, and Turbo guys, so I figure it is worth doing.

I have no idea if sticking on a pf tb is basically the same as getting a stock tb ported.

It is alot different. The PF is 70mm and the stock is 60. I can fit the entire opening of the stock one into the mouth of the PF one. I had a baby today, so install has been pushed back a few days. I'll let you know how much difference there is.

Well, I bought another intake manifold, and I have milled it out to the correct diameter, and I just need to get a couple of gaskets to swap out manifolds, and see how she runs. Hopefully I will be done by the end of the week., but I will be done by Sandy Point meet.

Alright, the PF TB is on, and it is incredible. I feel so much more top end it is incredible. My butt dyno tells me I am almost as fast 60-100 with this mod, as I was on the bottle without it. I need to build a new bracket to hold the throttle cables, as the geometry is off for the cruise control, and even with some fabricating, and washers to the factory bracket, the linkage just works for the gas pedal. Both of my nitrous bottles are empty right now, but that will be remedied by the weekend. My N/A 0-60 time dropped by a full second according to my G-Timer. Rain is kinda pi$$ing me off, but oh well. Now I'm getting close to completing the two stage system. I had some issues with Holley getting my fogger nozzle. I am also adding a few cool racing godies like a cool can, and lots of braided hoses. More to come soon. If you get a chance to get a PF TB and an adapter plate, DON'T HESITATE. Get it.

Auto, and it was a slow 7.2 0-60 N/A...on street, no warm tires/about 2.5 0-60ft. I am now getting about 2.4 0-60ft and 6.4 0-60. These are very conservative times, (I can launch a 2.15 0-60ft under good conditions with a burnout first) and do not like to really push the car on the street. I don't think any of these times matter too much, except for the change between them. I was able to run 5.3 0-60 at the track with just the 50 shot and some bald Michelins. I think the numbers that will matter is my next trip to the track. I am interested in testing the juice through it this weekend. I will refill the bottles Friday morning.

Hopefuly, I'll be able to post some pics by next week. I am having issues with the software for my camcorder. I need to reinstall, but it is not unpacked yet.

Where did you get your TB from? I've been thinking about this for a while now. Where can I find out more about the cool can?

I got the TB and adapter from another guy on the .ORG that had it, and decided not to do it. I just kept looking in the classifieds until I found it.
