Default Wanted V8 STI throttle body

Hey folks as above with or without sensors what you got must be from an STI*

Cheers

I have my old bug one sat here, it has a dodgy IACV but the other sensors are on - it needs the springs for throttle cable transferring from your old one if you have one as my replacement didn't have all of the right bits on and those that were on were knackered so I swapped them on to my new TB.

Give me a tenner to cover postage if you want it

Photo's attached

No idea about the spring cost but it was about 20-minutes to swap over, one nut, one cir-clip and one plastic retainer, slide them off the old one and fit them to the new one

IACV, circa £300+ new. You'll need a new gasket if you swap them over as they cannot be re-use - they deform too much under the pressure...
