This is Nipper's old enlarged throttlebody. It is an OEM one that I sent off to an engineer to be rebored out from it's original 57mm to 62mm and had a brand new butterfly flap installed. That doesn't sound much bigger, but it's an extra 18% cross sectional area which helps improve flow (particularily with a larger tophat).

It is a direct swap for the OEM item and should take less than 15 minutes to replace. Suitable for stage 4, 5, 6 and 7 cars upto around 550 BHP. When I had this in my old stage 4 engine setup the car made a healthy 309 BHP (partly becuase of this part).

These items sell for £330 +P&P on eBay. Based on that I am selling mine for £280 + P&P.

Bump. Anyone at stage 4 would likely benefit from this.
