How long will it take if I send you both and you send me back one? And it would give you one to sell real fast. Let me know Maybe we can do some work within the next week. Thanks

With the engine off, take the intake hose off of the throttle body, open the throttle all the way and look down into it. If the throttle body necks down at all after the butterfly valve than it's the stock throttle body. It's highly doubtful the PO changed yours... not a popular thing to do.

I may become a Vendor on CF just for my throttle bodies.....
If this thread disappears.....it probably got moved to the Vendor section.
NOTE: I didnt want to charge a core charge on these TBs, but now I have no choice.
The 8 guys on my waiting list are safe at $60, but for all new requests,
the price will be $80, $20 of that being a core charge. That way, if you dont send me a core, at least I have a few bucks to try to chase down cores myself at the JY.
Of course, if you send me one to modify...its only $40.
Thanks to all that have ordered, and a bigger thanks to all that have sent me cores.

I should be getting my core out to you this week. Now that I'm not working 7 days a week I can actually get to the post office during business hours.

Finally got mine on last night. Same results as everyone else- better throttle response & smoother idle. Great and simple upgrade. PM me your address and I'll ship the core out tomorrow.

If you drive to Stokesdale, Ill make it $75, since I dont have to ship it. When I get your old one, Ill send $20 back. Unless you have one with the MAP on the firewall, which I have about 3 available right now, it would be $40. We could swap it out in my driveway if you want. Only takes 15 minutes.
