The factory throttle body is ~2mm smaller than the hole in the intake manifold. Unless you port the manifold as well, the throttle body is a big, fat waste of money. 4 years ago we took a factory throttle body and bored it out, cut a new throttle plate, and popped it on out 2006. It didn't make ANY difference on the dyno. Zero. In fact all we DID get from it was a P2106 Throttle Body DTC about every 4th time we started the truck. Major disappointment.
If you haven't already purchased it, I would save my money.

The throttle response change comes from the fact that there is a slightly larger surface area for the same throttle angle.
As for economy, are you pen & paper or using the instrument cluster? In most cases the instrument cluster reading is off because the relationship between the throttle and the engine's power output is different (same power, less throttle) and cause a slightly higher reading in the economy calculation. If you're pen & paper on your calculations and you're still picking up1 to 1½, then that's awesome! Take care.

RBP,
Our phones are all boogered up at the moment. Was supposed to have it fixed today, but I don't see that happening. In fact, Corey just got off the phone with Vonage to see what they had to offer. I apologize for the inconvenience but if you PM us your number we can try to get in touch with you tonight or tomorrow. Maybe by then our phone will be back in shape too. Thanks.
