Wow, nice plate! I have yet to make one.. =( right now my IACV hose is simply plugged.

For the record, I just switched from my hand valve setup to TB controlled idle. Seems to actually work better than the valve, albeit more time consuming to adjust properly.

Cold starts suck with fixed idle setups, but once they warm up a little they are fine.

what tb will you guys be using that you can adjust the idle? I know the q45 has the screw on it to open and close it but I dont think the de has that? Also my idle is damn good for not having it and having cams. sometimes it will go to 1500 but then settle down all in all I cant complain one bit its one less thing that could go wrong and thats a plus for these cars.

Did you make mine too? Bring it on down and we'll see what it takes to put one on a car and keep it running lol.

Alex,

On DE throttle bodies and other throttle bodies without the adjustment screw, you simply remove the slack from the cable until the butterfly is open a good hair. There are other methods, but this one is the easiest.

Ummm...if you decide to make 3...
