Default Compare Nick Williams & PTM 102 mm Throttle Body's

I am getting either the NW 102mm or the PTM 102mm TB. There is only a $100 difference between the two and I just need to know if there is ANY difference between the two ? If not I would for sure save $100 to put towards my FAST 102 intake.

This is the correct Nick Williams throttle body...

as far as the difference I'm not sure. I've heard glorious things about the NW's one... never hear much about the PTM. Not to say it's not a good piece or anything...

Have any of you guys fitted a 102mm tb & how has the tuner gotten on with tuning. I am also looking at the NW 102 tb compared to the PTM 95 with a Fast 102 intake. A guy only gets 1 chance of getting it right on this side of the world so info from you guys is invaluable.
Cheers

Yout wont see any benifit from running the 102mm throttle body over the 92mm throttle body on the FAST intake(with your combination).

Just get a 92mm throttle body. I'm running a 90mm TB on my FAST 102.

The 102mm throttle body requires some clearancing either on the throttle body or water pump on F-bodies. The 92 does not.

I'm running a 102 ptm on an 02 Camaro no clearance issues outside making room on the overpass tube. Haven't gotten a good tune in it yet but it's a good looking fitting piece

I hadn't even noticed the date seems like a lot of threads are coming back from the dead lately, my bad.
