I hope I don't have the same problems with this throttle body like you did Jaye.

I had the BBK when I had problems. You won't have problems with the stock tb. The BBK was a piece of shit. I only had it cuz it was free.

Ahhh... well buddy, I advise you to bring your stock throttle body.

They had cars there in their shop with BBK's but mine gave them issues. Threw my car into fail-safe mode several times while he tuned it. I'm waiting til they get settled at their new location and then I'm going in to get an adjusted tune.

Under boost the BBK will lock up and throw the car in a fail safe mode. Igot rid of mine and got the ford racing one. It has worked flawlessly. I'm running 14-15 lbs of boost. The BBK was horrible under WOT. Not worth the trouble. You install looks awesome!!!

I swapped to the FRPP one too.

I got a stock TB but no electronics. I'll bring it to True Street if you want.

If your coming by then hell yes Jaye! I'ma get the wife to look for my old one, I'm sure it's somewhere around my in-laws house since she's visiting them this weekend. If she doesn't find it I would greatly appreciate it!
