SOLD! 80mm AMG Throttle Body + SC Inlet + Y-Pipe Connector
This is kit #15 from the original VRUS 80mm TB project. Original thread here: https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/...ttle-body.html Ah, those were the days!
I upgraded to an 82mm TB (bored out to 85mm) so I don't need this one any longer. Includes TB, SC inlet, and Y-pipe connector. I'm also including a used gasket although you would probably be better off replacing it with a new one.
I used the TB with a VRP carbon fiber airbox. In order to make the airbox fit the TB, I had to file away a portion of the external rubber trim. You can see the result in the third photo. That change doesn't affect the how the TB performs but I wanted to make sure potential buyers know about it before purchasing.
I'm thinking a fair price is $850 shipped. Give a shout if you have any questions.

Ahmad! Good to hear from you!
The 85mm TB is strong!
I spent a bit of team chasing down a vacuum hose leak but once I got that sorted, it was all good.

That work was done before I purchased the TB. Per the seller, it was Maxbore. Original for sale thread here: https://mbworld.org/forums/engine-pe...ody-600-a.html
