Does anyone know where I can get an Ericks 70mm throttle body? Or does anyone have any other suggestions on what throttle body to buy for my turbo EF?

Oh yeah...B18C, 60-1 turbo, Speedpro, Approx 500whp when done.

with a bit of machine work ie. adapter plate you can use a mustang TB, they come in a million sizes, go to any domestic speedshop and get a used one, mine was 20 bucks

Uhm, there is no MAP Sensor...

Hows that work?

oh allright, sorry, i do things a little different Sheetmetal IM, 1 all tps are three wire splice into your harness, 2) map source can be taken off any manifold vaccuum source, i use a GM MAP sensor anyway, if you are boosted are you just using check valves???

i'd just get the bbk mustang throttle body... the 70mm from the 86-92 or whatnot 5.0 oh and if u need... i made an aluminum adapter for the 70mm... with the 4 holes for the tb screws on it... let me know if u decide to go that route

Why are import parts so ridiculously priced? I'm tired of it! TB shouldn't cost that much, especially theres. Oh well, just wanted to rant.

rtype11

exactly, thats why I used a mustang, i have a friend who runs a Mustang parts warehouse, he gave me a used 70mm for 20 bucks (actually it went towards a round of coffee and donuts)

What about an Holley or BBK 70mm Throttle Body..u can get them thru Summit Racing

Damn, those Ericks TB's look awesome. Too bad they are so expensive.

Sure you can get an Edelbrock od BBS but they are cast and the ERICK'S is billet

bigTom

sorry about being **** now... and pardon my language... or the picures at least... but for a tb...


cast or billet they all work the same... and i would go with the cheaper one

I like the ERicks, but I dont think that I can front that cash. I think that I am going to stick it out until the speedpro goes on, then I will prolly get a mustang TB.

Thanks

Yeah I'd save my money for the billet titanium turn signal stalk or something genuinely important.

D-Man
