Default Nick Williams TB

Well I had a FAST and decided to switch to NW. Got it from Thunder. I ordered it last Thursday and got it today. Here's a pic. Nice work Nick! I only got 2 bolts with it, but Lowes can help there.

There should have been one bolt with it. A m6x60 to go in the top hole. For the other four you use the ones that came from FAST.

It's sad but true that the FAST TB will stick and is a general POS. Ask me how I know. Or do a search on my name Dalemx and look at my post in this section a week ago.

Yeah I got two of those long ones also in your TB purchased from Thunder. Haven't bought the manifold yet, but at least now I know what to do about the bolts after scratching my head.

Beautiful piece of work you made there BTW.

Maybe if you bring some parts off the car you are parting out in your sig PM me for what I need and maybe we can trade.

If you do some reading around, you'll quickly find out that Nick Williams' name is good as gold when it comes to making great throttle bodies...FAST on the other hand...well, I won't even go there.

Another former FAST90mm TB user here. It's a total POS in terms of reliability.

Do not buy a FAST T.B. I have gone through 3 of them under warranty because they get stuck open. they told me to install a return spring. They don't stand behind their product and will not refund my $. They SUCK. I have no choice but to buy a Nick Williams in the spring.

FAST 90 and Nick Williams TB here, and this is the best combo IMO.

Another vote for the FAST TB being a piece of **** too!

I think someone should forward this post to the makers of FAST so they can see what crap they produce and the unhappy customers

If I was a sponsor I would not sell the TB or any other product that was a known bad part. The sponsors should pick up on this and pressure FAST into fixing the problem by not selling the TB.
