Updated Throttle Body Designs from VMP Performance

Estimated reading time: 4 minutes

At VMP Performance, we understand the importance of a well-designed throttle body. Your throttle body can serve as a bottleneck – or a gateway – to your build’s potential. Increased bore size allows high-volume air flow to meet the intake manifold, giving your ECU the go-ahead to aggressively ramp up fuel delivery and spark timing. That’s why we’re constantly refining our throttle body designs, as you can see in these deep dives:

Let’s take a look at the most recent changes to our throttle body lineup, focusing on consistency, reliability, and ease of installation.

Sleek Look and Standardized Sizing

The first thing you will notice is the aesthetics. Our line now features a polished black finish, providing a sleek, modern look that complements any engine bay. However, the most significant detail is the application of the Twinjet 67 mm design across the board.

  • Consistency: We eliminated the confusion between 67 mm and 69 mm offerings.
  • Ease of Tuning: The 67 mm design is incredibly easy to tune; in many applications that came stock with a twin 60 mm, it is a simple bolt-on-and-go modification.
  • Refined Internals: We have optimized the internal components with larger gears and friction-reduction measures to ensure smooth operation.

“We’ve made the 67 mm sizing consistent across our throttle body line… we wanted to make things as easy as possible for our customers.”

Metalized Cometic Gasket

Sealing is often an overlooked aspect of throttle body performance. To combat air leakage and body deflection, all VMP throttle bodies now include a specialized Metalized Cometic gasket.

  • Innovative Material: Features an aluminum base with a soft, foam-like gasket material on both sides.
  • Zero Deflection: The rigid core ensures that when you torque the bolts down, the throttle body housing does not flex or bind.
  • Universal Availability: While included with new units, these gaskets are also available separately for those running older VMP hardware.

Application-Specific Solutions

We’ve moved away from the universal part philosophy to offer specific part numbers for various use cases. Whether you are running a Cobra Jet intake on a Gen 1 Coyote or an Odin supercharger on a 2024+ Mustang, we have a package tailored for you.

  • Integrated Harnesses: No more hunting for the right wiring; the necessary extension or adapter harnesses are now bundled under a single part number.
  • Hardware Included: Every kit includes the bolts required for your installation.
  • Detailed Documentation: Our website now features expanded product descriptions and tuning information to guide you through the process.

We’ve got a part number and an application for everything to make throttle body installation as easy as possible.
