I'm running the JG Intake Manifold with GSR
engine w/Boost.
With 70mm T.B. should I use.
Ericks
BBK
What Others and costs?
Is the throttle plate on these 70mm or does it taper?

spoon makes a nice one....only downfall is the $$

 

Arent they all just bored out OEm throttle bodies?

 

I have a Holley 68mm TB for sale $175 plus shipping, email me dragnsi@mindspring.com or call my cell (757)343-1123 Terry

 

yeah...Spoon Bores out the factory one to 70....i just have a thing for OEM quality...

 

Ericks Racing. Awesome Quality.

 

Only problem with spoons is that the butterfly isn't 70mm, it's just a taper bore. Starts at 70mm and tapers down to 62mm i believe.

 

Does the holly have any problems sticking at all?

 

STR billet 70mm

 

Tony Just Owned me.....lol i did some measurments after really looking at the throtle body and now am sending it back... on me

 

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I guess it's okay if you can get your money back. Just ask me before you buy anything else

 

Tony which would you choose the Erics, BBK, or STR
I know that the BBK comes with a block-off to eliminate the coolant passage
to cool the air temperatures.
Do thet all have the same features.
Thanks

 

none of them has coolant lines

 

From what i've seen, the erick's is the best quality. The bbk is junk and I haven't seen the str in person. Go with erick's, you can't go wrong.

 

STR is the same as Ericks...if it were me, id take the screws out of either tb that hold the butterfly on because they are not riveted on like a stock and can back out. Use some loc-tite on them so it cant happen and you will be fine.

 

Well the BBK I know yoy can use the factory collant hoses to run through the T.B. This is for cold start to heat the intake air temperatures. The BBK I know has a block off plate to elimate this.
Why is the BBK junk. Just wondering I know someone with it and doesnt have any problems?
Jason

 

not necessarily that it has alot of problems, it's just not built as good a quality as others. Put a bbk next to erick's and you'll see the difference.
