You forgot to add a UMI throttle body to your list. I've had a UMI for almost a year now and it has been flawless! The problem with the Fast is they stick. If I had to choose from the two above, NW all the way. You may want to consider looking into a UMI tb.

Ive never had the Nick Wiliams but my Fast does stick open slightly sometimes so I voted for the Nick Williams. I will be switching mine soon.

Nick Williams hands down. Don't go with soemthing that no one is running or hasn't proven itself yet. NW is one of the only ones without an issue ever. The best customer service as well. You will never have to worry about a problem with his stuff.

It's proven itself for about a year for me! I've yet to hear one complaint here on ls1tech or any other forums that I've visited. It must be a pretty damn good product if Katech uses them on all of their builds. They can pretty much run what they want and choose to run a UMI.

Get the Nick Williams and never look back. I had a Bluemaxx that stuck every time I gave it gas. Returned it and got the NW and no problems ever since.
