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.

Their online store was bugged. It probably still is.

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.

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

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.
