I got my ported 18 manifold from team beefcake, they sell ones that have already been ported by bret barber.So ported mani gains > port TB gains on stock tune? How much for ported mani?

If not doing a trade in this is definitely a better way to go. And to address the prev question yes a bit more from the mani than the TB.I got my ported 18 manifold from team beefcake, they sell ones that have already been ported by bret barber.
Doesn't "work "with Lund and AED tunes supposedly. I ordered the TB, installed it 15 minutes after it arrived. Car started right up, idled a little funny and then settled on a nice idle.FYI all, AFS notes that their TB works with the stock tune and those from VMP and PBD, but Lund doesnt tune for them. Just a PSA
Same exact issue with the AFS TB, no support from Lund in modifying my tune/Returned for full refund (AFS was great to work with and trying to help me)Doesn't "work "with Lund and AED tunes supposedly. I ordered the TB, installed it 15 minutes after it arrived. Car started right up, idled a little funny and then settled on a nice idle.
Went for a ride, got limp mode and codes P2112 & P2119.(TPS throttle body codes). Cleared the codes and they reappeared.
Switched tunes from AED to Lund, same issue. Immediately put the stock TB back on and no issues.
I ended up sending it back to AFS and getting a refund.
I'm not knocking AFS as they offer great products along with great customer service. I'm just not sure if they really don't "work" with aftermarket tunes or I got a bad TB.
Pretty sure it's the later as I was getting TPS codes.
Car runs great on the stock TB.
Anybody running the AFS throttle body on 18+ with PBD E85 tune? Any issues?
Same experience, tried two AFS TBs with a new AED tune but I was getting wildly high rpms starts. AFS took them back and refunded me.Doesn't "work "with Lund and AED tunes supposedly.

Let us know what they say about the codes. Is that something that can be fixed?Running PBD e85 tune. I got my Mani and TB ported by AFS, amazing service. But i get this p2119 codes. Gonna have to email them. and ask for a refund on the TB, keeping the Manifold. Car pulls really hard 100%. great job on porting. So far service is outstanding good. But it goes into limp mode more often.
Well Trever says its the TB. im not sure what happend to it. but once i put stock TB back, same tune, car runs great idle is perfect. No effect on performance. I honestly think that TB is not worth porting, or messing around with. As Trever says that TB is not tuneable.Let us know what they say about the codes. Is that something that can be fixed?
Thanks!
(Code P2119) Throttle Actuator Throttle Body is out of range or not performing properly.Well Trever says its the TB. im not sure what happend to it. but once i put stock TB back, same tune, car runs great idle is perfect.

This is exactly what happened to me. I contacted AFS, they asked who's tune I was using.Well Trever says its the TB. im not sure what happend to it. but once i put stock TB back, same tune, car runs great idle is perfect.

i agree, i honestly think that since they make the blade thinner that messes with the electronics, because the throttle response is different since blade is lighterThis is exactly what happened to me. I contacted AFS, they asked who's tune I was using.
When I told them, they said that the TB won't work with their tune and the suggested I use PBD.
Skeptical, I emailed PBD and explained everything to them. They replied saying that it was a bad TB.
Mu opinion is that in the process of disassembly/reassembly of the TB something with the actuator is damaged or improperly reinstalled.
