What the best 90mm Throttle Body? I know FAST is supposed to have issues fitting to their own manifold, which is the lamest thing I've ever heard, but who makes the nicest 90mm TB? Accufab, TPIS, MTI...? Thanks.

Texas Speed does'nt show it on their web site but if you call them they can give the info on it, I think MTI shows it on their site so just jump on their site's over there>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Word. It says exchange basis only? What's up with that. They can't mean exchange a stock TB for a 90mm? And how would anybody have a 90mm to exchange?

Its like a core charge. theyre just gonna take your stock one and max it out and resell it. U dont have to send them a 90mm, (plus if u had one why would u be buying theres anyway.

Max it out? Can you even make a 90mm out of a stocker? Also, why are we paying $500 for a machined stocker? I think it should be brand new like the FAST unit? Hmm...?

The TPIS is a new billet T/B, the core is for the sensor that they re-use on the new 90mm T/B.

I'm not sure I don't know of anyone thats run one with that setup but I would think with tuning it would be fine.

90mm is big for a stock bottom end. Also be aware that the TPIS/MTI throttle body does not have provisions for the crankcase vent. You will also have to buy a breather set-up. The FAST comes with the provision. I have neither, but I plan on the FAST. It can be had for $100 cheaper (through group purchases) with no core charge.

What arew they doing trying to give them away now since they don't match up to their intake cosmeticly. All I did it put a small K&N filter were the old fresh are hose went from the T?B to the valve cover and it works great, the ecm already adjusted for the unmetered air that was coming in.
Keep an eye out in the group purchase section. T-byrne just had one. Not sure if it is still on or not.

Yes I did once in a while before I got tuning with the new setup.
