IMO, I don't he meant anything by it, I think maybe he thought Armo was getting confused by all the different info so he's trying to save the guy a headache and just point him to where he can get his question answered.

Whats sacred about it?
First off, that comment was not directed solely at you. On any forum, there are about 20% who actually do their own homework, and the rest search threads and base their decisions off of that. I'm not an expert by any means, just a guy who is trying to steer someone who is asking for help in the right direction.
However, I would bet I have more of my own time invested in looking for a proper solution than yourself.
I only spouted off when you were so quick to knock Bramage...and yes, I consider him one of my friends.
The Op is most likely going have an indy do the work. Simply put, most indy's installing parts provided by the owner are not going to look above and beyond to correct an issue. They will bolt in up and if something is missing, they will take their pay and walk away...your parts..your problem.

The TTM kit is an improved version of my idea. Here you go....

I had a couple of throttle bodies in my hands and the decision to use the factory Mercedes 82mm was a no brainer. Here you go again....

You could have simply said, "oh yeah, I forgot about that".

Thanks for the help everyone ... this is valuable information.
Sounds like I need to give TTM a call ... in the meantime, I will do my homework about the 80 and 82mm kit builds ...
Thanks again,
