    Hi there, can you give me a price on a complete throttle body set-up for a 9A 16v, including setting up, and RR time?

    Many thanks

    Lewy

    why 48?
    ask DTA

    ... or make your own, its only 5-10 wires after all.

    Download the manual & wiring diagram from www.dtafast.co.uk and make your own if you want to. They give the wiring pin outs for DIY as well as selling a pre-made one.

    you have a choice.

    Do you do all the work in house I called you some time ago about getting a drive in drive out service with TB's fitted and set up and at that time you could only supply them

    Hi Bill, do you know if the spacing for the ITB's injectors is the same as the 1.8T fuel rail? and do you know if it would be possiable to fit a 1.8T fuel rail (maybe with a bit of fabrication?) instead of the Jenvey item?

    Cheers Tom.

    Hi, thanks Bill, one more question, what does the throttle cable bracket look like?

    is it like the one in the pic above or the pic below?

    cheers Tom.

    of late i have reverted to jenvey own throttle mech from my own.. mine is first pic, jenvey is 2nd pic, which also needs their cable (or modding VW cable to their mech) - mine used stock vw cable without need to mod.. BUT, I have run out of machined parts for some of the components i need, and the low volumes of these makes me sit on the fence to see how demand goes as i have minimum batch qtys to make () to get minimum 10 sets of more. Jenveys are stock components to them, and generally in stock, slightly more as you have the additional over mount brkt and cable requirement.
