90mm tbs that dont stick post list
NW work great if you can get him to make them. he is always back ordered. any Tb can stick if its out of adjustment. IF you think about it and make sure the shaft is lubed and make sure the balde is square and your not going past closed or past open you shouldn't have any issues.
Let's clear something up. I am assuming you are talking about the throttle hanging open? That is the problem I had with the BlueMaxx.
If you are talking about the throttle sticking shut, that is usually cured by a throttle stop adjustment.

im talking about the hanging open and revs staying up, i hat that
The only Tb I've heard of having a problem was the PTM. Although it wasn't that they were sticking, it was that they were not opening all the way... Apparently, the worked the kinks out of it a while back, I have one from recently, and it works just a good as a Nick Williams.

When I take my foot off the pedal, my Holley sticks at varying spots between 1200 and 1500 rpm. If I blip the throttle it will usually drop to normal idle (850 rpm). It seems like the return spring is too weak. I have fooled with the throttle-blade stop adjustment without success.

That is what the BlueMaxx was doing on mine, but it was hanging at what ever speed I accelerated to. Bolted the Holley on and it ran like a top. Go Figure?

My fast sticks like super glue unless i clean it every few months. In my opinion its junk and for everyone that is going to ask its about a year old and theres probably less than 500 miles on it. Go with the nw i wish i did now... sorry to bash but its the truth...

He has two nice cnc machines to make the thottle bodies, but he pretty much does it by himself.
