I recently posted in another thread, I bought an ebay dbc tb to use only for mock up purposes and it is the biggest piece of **** I've ever seen. The blade binds in the throat and won't close all the way, IAC valve won't bolt in as it was machined incorrectly and on and on.
Works great for use as a mock up piece, but I'd never buy one for actual use.
I wonder if there are different "ebay knock-off's" and some are better than others?

i tried to buy the same one both times, and the first one had to be modified to fit the iac(one of the steps was wrong diameter) but the second worked fine. i think maybe they updated the machining specs.
i buy the $90 black one.
i also will loosen the blade screws to adjust the blade so it seats better and apply a little red loctite. its worked well so far on four ebay shitty cheap tbs. two lsx and two evo ones.
im sure the $500 ones are really nice, but its good for us poor folks to have options.
