Does anybody have a 65mm throttle body? I need to match up one to my airram. I'm asking here before I try Kspec. Any suggestions as to what I can do?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Do NOT buy that BBTB mang. You are gambling with your money. I messed with one of the 63MM System ones (from SR) at Nopi and it had all sorts of problems. Vaccum leaks, poorly machined butterfly valve, not to mention it had extra holes in the face of the TB flange causing big leaks at idle.
Find a used one somewhere if you can, Tigerlilly no longer makes beta parts and the 65MM's are sold out.

OH GOD don't get the SR one. I bought the 65mm what a piece of sh*t. What they give you is a beta 2 BBTB an drill the hole out for a beta 1. I'm still trying to get my money back from them angryfire.gif

that SR one looks nice but a little cheap, no? sharkracing is too mixed up. but thanks for the info.
totally sucks they're sold out. they have been sold out for like 5 months now. ack. i think zoned019 has one but he might need it... you know of anytime Kspec will have them back up?

I guess I got next to the last 65mm.
My 65mm TB/Air-Ram combo seems to be a good investment. cool.gif
I guess try your luck and wait for that Machine Shop deal thing.

ah it's the rside one that's still available. i thought a different company made the 65mm ones. i wanted a nice TB to match up with the airram and i don't want to steer too far off from custom. i didn't even know you could use one from a mustang in some form of way can you? i also need the cruise control.
that machine shop deal is just boring out TB's right? so if it goes through you'd have to send your own in problem is i work or school near everyday and always need the car running.
hmmmmprhm thinking thinking thinking, thanks for the help.
