Most guys on Tech like the NW of the two. Reason being when FAST came out with the 90mm TB at first it had a defect causing the butterfly to hang at WOT. The NW peice was desinged to eliminate that problem. Supposedly all the new FAST TBs are re-designed and do not have that issue anymore.

Kinda off the topic, but how are the BBK 80mm TB's. I saw some in the summit catalog the other day.

I had FAST throttlebody that had the sticking problems and switched to a UMIracing throttlebody,it has an eliptical opening that offers vastly improved low speed throttle response.UMI is the best way to go if you plan to drive around on the street.

I also like the UMI and Nick Williams. I haven't seen you around in a while. How's the 408 coming?

If you really want to be adventurous I have a 90mm FAST that I will sell for $50+plus shipping.
