Default How is the NW TB supposed to make tuning easy?

It looks like a nice piece of work but I cant even find a set screw like the stocker has! So it looks like the only way to adjust it for a large cam is to drill?

Anyone? Am I missing an adjustment somewhere on this thing?

The set screw is there, it just is in a different configuration than stock. Mounted on the car, it runs front to back. There is also a set screw on the side of the crank that keeps the adjuster from moving. Make sure you loosen it first and only tighten it back down a little.

Drill the blade to get the IAC counts just under 100 and then adjust the set screw from there.

My NW90 was pretty easy to tune for. Just have to be smarter than the TB.

supposedly the tighter tolerances make the airflow more predictable as well
