I received my throttle body today. As soon as I get my new motor & cam run in, it'll be going on. And then... it's off for dynotuning. Looking forward to a better output than the sad 120kW before.
The finished product and followup were all Numero Uno. For anyone contemplating this mod, this guy is great to deal with. Thanks Vince.

put mine on tonight!
the car definately feels verry pokey, im not sure how much difference it has made, but there is definately something there. its hard for me to tell because i dont drive the car every day. im taking it down the drags tomoro night so will have to see what happens! i had to make 2 new gaskets as mine were both stuffed (tb and isc), took the car for a drive and it went well but had megggga rev hand, like it was gaining rpm when i clutched it... so what i did was made another gasket for the isc, to completely block it off. Then i just asdjusted the base idle up to around 900rpm, just gotta see what it will be like in the morn, i think its gonna be pretty rough! but it runs and idles awesome when warm like this. all in all very happy with the item and the service fastxr has provided

thanks guys, your ecu will also need a little time to learn the new airflow, give it a few days of driving and it will feel stronger again, although it will be gradual and you might not even notice. if anyone plans on a before and after 1/4 miles, dynos, etc, please post them up...

being originally skeptical, i reckon i might give one of these a go in the future as it might allow the tuner to throw in a bit more fuel up top if its already allowing a little more air

just got back from the drags,
previous best was 14.268 at 96.77mph new best is 14.179 at 96.87mph so a minor gain to be had, but then again that could have been it was 15degrees cooler tonight! But the car does feel very nice to drive with the new tb on so still a worth while investment

But the car does feel very nice to drive with the new tb on so still a worth while investment well done, when your already at low 14s, 0.1 is no mean feat, in my el i dropped from 14.3 to 14.2 with the throttle body. although you may not feel it, the car is pulling past 5400 instead of peaking at 5000 rpm Quote: I think I have two or three more lying around... If I keep sending them over, you'll owe me a free one shortly! mate if you can send me 5 more, i will send you one for free! so start looking! haha Quote: fast'll speak to my mate he normally has a few ef/el ones floating aroundfast'll speak to my mate he normally has a few ef/el ones floating around excellent, ill either pay you for them or give you a discount off a machined one, please pm me when you find out
