82mm TB?

Thinking of buying one from Fedor Dezyn- has anyone done so/how's the result and any issues to watch out for before I put my money down?

Any experiences/thoughts appreciated.

I had read some of the threads, but some seemed focused on an ECU that didn't work and issues with a refund. There were a lot of PMs sent back and forth and frankly I couldn't get a great sense of what the real issue was (particularly given that Vardim seemed to be a member in good standing for some time). Was curious if anyone had recently done the 82TB and if it was good quality (if it's proven to work would seem to be low risk) or if this was simply someone to avoid doing business with. My other mods were through kleeman, but their TBs are back ordered (and I believe only 80mm)

Don't want to stir things up but also don't want to throw money down a hole

RennTech was the first to come out with the 82mm TB, have you tried them?

Contact Azipod, he purchased and installed a 82mm TB from Fedor Dezyn. I have the Renntech 82mm TB because at the time I wanted one the supply was limited. The cost is about twice as much from Renntech and I believe they all use the same TB from MB. With that said, I'm very happy with my purchase and have no regrets. \

Good luck with your decision!

Alan- I feel like the guy standing in the back of the room with his hand up, jumping up and down saying "pick me, pick me" and you just keep ignoring me. I guess that is what 10's will do to you!!

Damn Bruce, sorry about that! You know in a heartbeat you would be the one working on my car if we lived near each other . I was just responding to a question he had about FD's throttle body.

Haha...on the 10's! You're my boy bruce and you've helped me out a great deal during our long conversations and it's truly appreciated .

A big +1,000,000 on TT Motorsports. Bruce is a stand up guy and he knows his *****. Give me a call sometime Bruce so we could shoot the *****.
