102mm throttle body, NW Needed - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hi guys,

I'm getting my blower and snout ported soon and I've been looking into the 102mm throttle bodies. I see that most people go with the Nick Williams, is this necessary? It's a bit pricey and are there any downsides to going with something like a FAST throttle body or a Granatelli 102mm throttle body?

Thanks

NW is tried and proven...hard. I've heard of a number of issues w/ Granatelli, and nothing good on the LSA. Gotta pay tp play.

The NW102mm have been discontinued but the NW103mm have proven to be solid as a rock so far, I think Kong have the NW 103 in stainless for $674.00 with the work you are getting done what size cold air intake tube are you using?

Unfortunately, the NW 102/103 is the only one that actually works- and survives- for more than a dyno session.

The 103 is their current product.

This is one of those things that you really shouldnt cut corners on.
