I'm happy to say I've seen another great product of Dan Arcand "The Fastman" be put on my car.
Dan is a well known and talented machinist. He works almost exclusively with Mopar vehicles and has crafted modified throttle bodies for many years. I had on on my '95 Dodge Ram 360, and it woke up the engine. Crispier, and more throttle response.
So years later I finally get another Mopar, and wanted to do the modded throttle body on my Challenger. Dan was there again to hook me up. This mod only costs $100 (for the standard TB, mind you), which includes the rework. Also you'd have to send in your TB to get that $100 price.
I opted to have Dan buy one like mine since I can't get my car tied up. Anyways long story short, I get my new TB and it looks way less restrictive than the factory TB.
WOW! More instantaneous power, not just off idle but any speed. The car seems woken up now, and is much more eager to pull. Notice the words I use I do not say it adds lots of HP. In fact, although it may free up a small amount, it is the responsiveness and sound I was looking for. As for the sound, I noticed an increased sucking noise from the intake, it is subtle though.
I would recommend you guys check out his website with what he has to offer. I got the standard TB, which is good for stock or mildly modded cars. He does have a performance 84mm option, for people with heavier mods.

Again, great improvement for the money, great person to work with, and am now a happy repeat buyer!
Email and talk to Dan about his TBs vs the aftermarket ones, he will answer all of those questions. This man knows what he's doing.
Thought I'd share on the new mod!
