i have up for grabs 2 dual throttle kits to fit mk1 or mk2. i was asked if i could get these made by a couple of nutzers after i fitted mine.....so while he was at it he made a couple of extra sets.

you get a pulley.mounting bracket. stainless steel cable bracket and a solderless nipple for the cable for £50 delivered

THE KIT


WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE FITTED

[joem]

excuse my ignorance, but what are the benefits?

[fr3n2y]

May need one of these.... Can I come back to you tonight?

[allanhelen]

I'll take one, pm me your payment details

Edit actually forget that I can't use this as my WI is plumbed into my DTB

And for everyone who is asking what does it do is that it allows you to use a big AA inter cooler with a hot side supercharger and still have the car idle correctly, you will need to source another TB to go with this as well

[chris@yoco]

as above what does this do ?

[martylemoo]

I will take one.

Please PM me with your Paypal address.

Thanks

If you are supercharged you have to move the throttle body from the standard position to before the charger, unless you want to attract plod as it is very loud if this is not done.
This can cause issues with throttle volume as their is more air after the throttle body when you lift off, can cause problems like idle droop.
The effect is made even worse when fitting a A/A intercooler, even more air volume after throttle body.

This kit enables you to fit a second throttle body back in the original position and gives near standard throttle response.

I'll take one please, pm me details

Thanks John

Looks like these have already gone, but if not please let me know. I already have the second throttle body and a cable to butcher so this kit would finish off my requirements perfectly.

Cheers,

Pete

Pretty simple to tap a new spot mate, dual TB it worth that effort IMO

(says the man who's had a fitted and working WI kit but non tapped inlet ever since he converted to DTB )

Not that easy in my set up without drilling something expensive and I really can't be without the WI these days

but if there is more being made up in the future at that price count me in, it will give me something to do in the winter nights and if I don't get around to it it will still be worth the same money

IC/crossovers pipes aren't expensive
