Default Knock-Off FAST Throttle Bodies

I found a local vendor here in California that sells 92mm throttle bodies. MAN! These look exactly like FAST TBs without the Logos. I would bet, the same manufacturer

Anyone ever use one? They are only $175!!

Buy it. Run it. Let us know how it performs. I'm interested. Maybe I'll buy that TB instead of NW when I put on my FAST

I found an old thread. Not sure if its the same manufacturer...but for $300-$400 savings? A little effort might be worth it. Plus the warranty helps, which if its bad, ill take it back.

BTW...I bet the same company makes all of these including FAST version
