NW is a lot better than the Fast 90mm TB.

Yo can get NW or BlueMaxx Vengence sells both.

I dont see people porting the 90mm tb but does do the intake.

I've installed 3 N/W, one of which is on my own car.
Two of them have over 40,000 miles
Not a single problem with any of them.

NW is among the best but FWIW the sticking issue with the FAST TBs has been fixed for a few years.

Stay away from the BlueMaxx. It's sticks also. I replaced it with a Nick Williams and everything is cool.

Asside from the sticking issues that some may have, a 90mm tb is a 90mm tb. Your not gona gain any noticable amount of power in running one or the other.

The PTM is a great throttle body. It's well made and it will be hard to beat the price. Give us call if have any questions! We also sell the NW and FAST throttle bodies.

Texas-speed, PTM throttle body can't be beat for the price. I have installed a handful and they work awesome.

Nick Williams makes all his throttle bodies ~5 miles from our shop. Needless to say, we run NW90 TBs on all of our in-house builds. Love 'em!
