Default Ebay Dorman 90mm intake nick Williams tb?

Anybody looked into the dorman ls 90mm fast copy cat intakes that use a fast bottom half and a 4 bolt tb ? EBay has a few listings with Nick William tb's and the Holley sniper efi throttle bodies, just wondering if anyone's tried these intakes over the fast genuine intake? Also if anyones tried the holley sniper tb's and if so what are the pros and cons with it? Is it worth the $ to go with the nick williams over any other 92mm tb? Here's a link to the eBay listing

I bought one with a holley TB. Seems like the throttle body is going to work fine. I had to smooth out the runners with a die grinder and sanding rolls, spent like 3 hours getting it perfect. Seems like its going to fit good. Will update in a month when I get the whole car running.

Now i bought the intake (615-901) for $380
Throttle body (Holley 860004) for $170, but you also must buy the IAC (Holley 543-105) for about $50

Now you can reuse all of your fueling components including the rails

hmm what about the tps? Can you use the gm one or do you have to buy the Holley one? Also, where did you piece it all together for that price ?

I had to have a machinist duplicate the IAC hole from the OEM TB to the Holley TB because the I kept getting defective Holley IAC valves and my tuner didn't want to dick with it any more. The OEM IAC doesn't fit in the opening.
The TPS works fine. Im hppy with it all. Pulls much harder.

Same problem with the Holley. I ended up getting a Nick Williams TB.

There's my flow test thread with various tests of the Dorman LS2 below. There is also a Doman LS2 thread that goes into details of installing. Am LS6 intake with the TPis 90mm snout out flows the Dorman LS2 including a basic ported Dorman LS2 in my testing. The snout is $350 from TPIS or LPE if one has an LS6 intake.
