FA20Club Throttle Body
 

Anybody have one?

I didn't even realize they make them until today and I don't see any other threads about it on here.

Wether you paid for it or not, you won't be seeing anything from FA20Club. Let's just say that the "owner" is a crooked piece of...

Hint: They have also been banned on FT86Club for a reason.

The price is very interesting 389$ instead of 1700$ for the cusco one...

they got banded? lol welp im gonna need multiple dyno tests before any consideration

Their online store was bugged. It probably still is.

Yep. Especially after screwing over a few members.

Someone local here picked up the throttle body and received it. Forget his username on the forum though.

Hopefully he sees this thread and can share some insight. Seems like the only throttle body in a reasonable price range.

Not that there isn't enough Toni bashing going around, but with the MAJOR lack of quality control on his parts, the last thing in the world i'd want him doing is porting the throttle body. Just my .02 cents.

DON'T DO IT!

Wow.... Great price. But I would never buy from them.....

Hopefully someone more reputable will come up with a similar priduct. I know at least one other vendor is working on it....

Yep, I recommend staying the hell away from Toni

The only somewhat difficult part is sourcing a bigger butterfly valve as the rest is just porting the OEM throttle body.

This guy's well known for boring out the TB's... might be better.

Reasonable price or not, does the car (without FI) even benefit from a bigger TB at all? Our stock TB is bordering on huge for a 2L engine (68mm, other 2L engines have 60-65mm as an upgrade). Without big breathing mods (FI, or cams and revving way higher) I can't see the TB being a bottleneck.

Take a piece of round stock and cut it down to the diameter of the new throttle body bore, for an inch or two. Take the round stock to a mill and cut a 7* angle in the end. ==\ Kinda like that. Layout, drill and tap two holes in the same location as the holes in the throttle bodies shaft, the holes that will hold the plate to the shaft. Bolt a piece of brass plate to the end of the jig you just made and put the jig back in the lathe. Turn the plate down to the diameter of the jig without cutting into the jig itself. Profit. Now, if only I could access get access to a machine shop. :bonk:

Toni won't even return my logs to me anymore after I scheduled time on his stupid calendar.

"Oh I'll be busy tuning local cars today so responses may be delayed"

Never one email back after that one. Customer service went to shit as well as their parts. Glad I didn't get anything but a tune.

I've asked this same question myself, as a 68mm TB will flow enough air to support well over 300 HP. What is the size of the MAF anyway? If it's any smaller than the TB a bigger TB isn't going to really help. Unless your going big boost I really can't see the point. But it ain't my money... :)

Stock MAF housing is 2.5" (63.5mm) IIRC.

I know of one! :)

There was another vendor working on an oversized throttle body. They spent considerable time on it and couldn't make the car run smooth... Even using ecutek. If Toni managed to find the secret, while destroying engines and burning all ft86 bridges, I would be very surprised.

whoa I didn't realize all this stuff happened with that guy. I've been away from here for a few months lol, I almost went to his shop to see about getting work. glad I found another place that is awesome.

What has happened to the posts from the pioneering member from NY, who supposedly ordered the FA20Club throttle body?

I guess he still remains a mistery :0
