K20and2500HD Posted May 16, 2020 Posted May 16, 2020 I order one for my 6.2L and got the free Throttle Controller. Drive-ability was vastly improved from idle to part throttle to wide open. So smooth and precise, then turned on the TC and wow is all I have to say over 30 positions to choose from, it took a while to figure the best one for me, haha, but I loved it! I was so happy at the results that I emailed Mike at Soler Performance about reworking the TB on my 2017 6.0L and he did..... It works even better on the 6.0L than the 6.2L as far as throttle response, I do not have the TC on the 6.0L but it runs so much better than before, I guess GM was starving them of air, who would have thought..... I do want to say thanks to Mike and Soler Performance great craftsmanship, fast turnaround, and great communication and knowledge. I do not regret this upgrade at all, it's subtle but well worth it!! Thanks Mike!! 1
flyingfool Posted May 16, 2020 Posted May 16, 2020 i do have the throttle enhance installed, I rarely use it now, and have reverted back to the stock factory setting as I found them more relaxing to drive in the city. and it improved my MPG using oem settings. 2
Mike@SolerPrf Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 Thanks, Everyone. The deal is still on, Free TC with your purchase of a TB. Also wanted to announce that the TB's for the 5.3L are ready. Link below. https://www.solerengineering.com/store/se7792-84
flyingfool Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 can you add a little knife edging and mill down the shaft a bit thinner?

DurtyRado30 Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 Going to try out my freshly installed throttle body... Install took less then 10 minutes, although I have a K&N intake already so there's not much to remove. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

I had mine open the other day and there was a lot, which surprised me because it was clean last time I checked.
DurtyRado30 Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 There was more than I expected. The throttle body was pretty nasty too.. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
DurtyRado30 Posted June 28, 2020 Posted June 28, 2020 If anyone was thinking about getting one of these, I definitely recommend it! One of the best mods so far... Drivability is great, easy to install and price is right! Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
SeekAndDestroy Posted August 8, 2020 Posted August 8, 2020 It works awesome! I have about 11000 km on the Soler Throttle body and throttle controller now. I do not have a tune on my truck yet. Every time I would start from a stop the truck had lag or a "bog" when you stepped on the gas and "tipped in" the throttle. Now that bog is completely gone, she is as smooth as silk accelerating now. It seems to like WOT better now too, haven't experienced any knock ****** since the install. I like the SP-7 setting on the TC. Economy is the same as it was factory. Recently went on a 500 km round trip, about 20-22*C outside, and it averaged 9.5 L/100 km (25 mpg). Totally worth it! tl;dr - BUY IT

Did you also install the throttle controller or just the new throttle body. Thanks!
