I do not believe so .. from what I have been told by Andre, this is being made for LFP alone.

There's an outfit out of California (can't remember the name right now) offering what appears to be the same TB as well, Punisher85 found it. It's a tuning shop and I believe they are claiming it as there own too. The prices are all similar as well, all around $500...with the same finish options. 
interesting... It would be nice to know it's origin's as many seem to be claiming it as there own.

I don't understand the thought process with some companies. Here we are on the Internet looking for parts for our cars, do they really think we aren’t going to find out, there is another places selling the same thing???
Why not just say it's not ours but it's a quality piece...that would be fine with me. When they "claim" it's theirs and I find out otherwise It makes me wonder what else they are trying to pull.... :nono:
Maybe It's just me.... Sorry guys, I feel better now

I have asked Andre to confirm who is making them and if that sam manufacturer is making the TB for anyone else. I was told the fab shop was making this set for LFP only. I will post the answer as soon as I get it.

Bryan,
I hope you didn't misunderstand my post earlier on this, I think I can speak for everyone here when I say thank you for looking into this.
Regards,
Gordon

Yah Bryan, thank's for putting this together! I was just currious if this was the same TB a couple other places were advertising...Like I said before it's no big deal and whoever makes it, look's like they did a nice job. I'm in for sure, and look forward to seeing what you turn up.

I am still waiting on a definite answer, but from what I have been told, this is a TB designed specifically for L.F.P. I also am supposed to be getting a dyno sheet ASAP - faxed to me.
I did speak to Andre today, he says they have 2 black and 2 silver units in and are awaiting more. I hope to be able to test a silver one soon so we can see what a S/C throttle body will get in rwhp and rwtq.

Hey Bryan I'm not sure if I can swing it or not with my recent purchases , but if it gets close to 15 poeple let me know and I'll see what I can do. Also if you guys are needing anyone else to help test I'd be glad to lend a hand.
Thanks Mike

I spoke to him last Thursday and will try to get out that way to update my tune this weekend. Maybe I could also test one since my car is mostly stock. Also looking at the Xcal 2.

Bryan I am still the ten steps behind you. You way outdistanced me with the SC. If the thing works out and under 400 I will be in there too. I am well aware of the cost of the machining it from a block even if it is on CNC equipment. Is this whole unit driven by a motor?
