Great part . Easy to install .. noticable power difference u wont be disappointed
Fantastic!!
from Leigh Bunting on 30/03/2020
On my VS Commodore wagon V6 Ecotec with T5 stickshift, adding the 69mm TB and matching memcal has had a MAJOR effect on performance and a 10% - 15% improvement in fuel economy.

Previously, I could only get 104kph pulling 0.4 bar vacuum. 0.4 bar vacuum is my personal limit without excessive fuel use. Now 0.4 bar vacuum gets me to 120kph!!

I have realized that the so-called Ecotec engine came from the factory with chronic asthma. And now it is cured!! I am getting a similar fuel economy to what my Buick-engined VR was getting after 450K km!! So may the fleas of a thousand camels infest the hairy armpits of the Ecotec engineers! I have wasted some $1500 in fuel, and the medicine to cure the asthma, in the 3½ years I have owned this vehicle.

I expect to pay off the cost of these items in 12 to 18 months. A great ROI! Not to mention that the engine is now much more flexible and tractable - just like the Buick engine in tje VR was.

A big thanks to the MACE guys!
Easy to install
from John Watts on 9/08/2019
Quicker response, a little hard to accelerate without a quick launch. Looking forward to installing memcal
Excellent

WH Statesman 3.8ltr. There was a good noticable difference with down low excelleration. I dont rev my cars hard so not sure about high revs. Happy enough that I will be purchasing another one for my VX commodore.
Quality is really good

I have ported heads,stage 2 cam,105 valve springs,double row timing chain,69m throttle body,pace make extractors,air box,so now of to the dyno,and talking to Steve and what I have I'm sure it's going to go good
excellent

Product did exactly as claimed Worked well in conjunction with reworked PCM and high ratio roller rockers
Motor was in good condition before these products were added
Noticeable improvement all round Fuel economy appears to be
somewhat better which is a bonus considering the performance gains for not much labour
Found Mace easy to deal with and no question went unanswered
Some of the best customer service ever

Great product more responsive and more power thxs guys
A MUST HAVE
from Anonymous on 26/05/2015
Excellent product! Thanks for all the research and work you guys put into these upgrades!

Spend the money and get the PCM (computer throttle body tune) upgrade for your VY because these two go hand in hand.
Thinking of getting one..DO IT !!

First impressions heaps more bottom end torque and response in throttle throughout the rev range , No negative fuel consumption just alot more pleasant to drive. Freeway driving is smooth. I am also running a mace 25mm Spacer and throttle body memcal and found the car to respond heaps better in warmer weather (sluggishness gone) I recommend this product highly. Another quality Product from Mace.
Excellent

Easy to Install, Instant throttle response. Slight improvement on fuel economy. Engine breathes better down low speed and top end. Very Happy with it!
awesome
from Anonymous on 27/07/2014
I have noticed a increase in power and fuel savings.
Hardly have to touch the throttle to get to 60 or 80k with the memcal installed as well as the cold air intake.
I dont know why holden nerfed the throttle body, 7mm difference or close to it.
Money well spent
from Anonymous on 2/09/2013
Noticed a big change in acceleration. Engine feels much smoother and much more "perky" definitely a great purchase!
Would recommend this item to anyone wanting to get that little bit more out of their V6.
Instructions a little out-dated and not 100% matching to a VX but simple enough for any level DIY enthusiast.
great product with good throttle response increased.
from Anonymous on 6/07/2013
great product that should be on all commodores. perfect instructions.
i had quick postage and invoices came through quite quickly.
came with all necessary parts for the change over
money well spent

I installed this and the 12mm plenum spacer yesterday, and I'm very happy with the outcome. the motor feels a lot perkier now, more willing to go from the stand still. And on a side not e i found dealing with there customer support team a refreshing change they care about there customers which is not something you get a lot of any more. I'll be back and would recommend to a friend.
Works Great

Perfect add on for price.

Noticeable powers gain and a change of exhaust note. Quick and easy installation.
great bang for buck
from Anonymous on 6/09/2012
put it in today easy as installation for anybody, better engine note alongside extractors, high flow cat, and 2 and a 1/2" exhaust, noticed improved acceleration kinda took me by surprise lol, i did get the chip also so i recommend getting that also not smokin the tyres yet but a supercharger will do that
Brilliant
from Anonymous on 6/09/2012

Hey guys,

Firstly I would like to thank you so much for the speedy sevice......This Throttle Body ROCK'S ....I installed it on Saturday despite the cold and rainy weather and I must andmit the difference once you step on the gas is amazing......You can feel the power gain...Having said this I installed the MEMCAL in the ECU aswell which I would recommend if you are upgrading to the 69mm Throttle Body .........Money well spent.... Cheers Tony
excellent
from Anonymous on 11/05/2012
except for extractors my stock v6 ecotec now uses a fraction of pedal and runs like it should,,, i.e. with a cold air intake , throttle body , 25mm manifold gasket and chip ,,
recommended
from Anonymous on 27/03/2012
very fast delivery, instalation was easy best part of 30min, noticable acceleration difference and smoother throttle response
Something that every ecotec should have!
from Anonymous on 10/02/2012
Instant difference it made was quiet pleasing, I recommend this for any ecotec :) Power and acceleration was greatly improved.
this product is a MUST for every ECOTEC
from Anonymous on 22/01/2012
I installed it on Tuesday after work (took 10 mins) and took it for a drive and noticed a massive difference the moment i touched the loud pedal just the smallest amount, you don't realize how restrictive the standard TB is until you put then together and compare the differences, the standard TB has a very bad design, I drove 220 kms on the open road on friday night and the over taking was good before but is bloody awesome now. next is the 1.9:1 rockers
this is money well spent 110/100 fast postage here the next day :) thanks mace
