anyone had any experience with these?
lots of internet trolling says they are made in the same place as skunk2, but just a different sticker

Group buy?

By the time you add shipping and tax on it is cheaper to buy a Skunk2 one direct from Skunk2.

Or simply buy the one I've got, £83 to my door and an absolute copy of that - Google CNT Throttle Body.
Edit: Just had a quick search and came up with nothing. Try Ebay.com.

just looked and yes your right - amazing since most other places charge a lot more! only thing is you can only get a 66/70mm in the Alpha Series for £120, otherwise if you want a 68mm you need to go Pro Series and then the price nearly doubles

ah well, such little difference between 66mm and 68mm, its worth it for that price thanks Merlin

jobby, sorry I misread that as 68mm

sorry. Yeah if you want a 68mm you have to go Pro.

Well the Pro is a CNC made part, where as the alpha range are there more affordable range and is a cast item. Apart from that they still both do what they say on the tin. There has been stories of the Pro series throttle plate sticking, but plenty people out there say they've not come across this.

I found this problem looking for 68mm
I trumped up the cash for the skunk2 one..
I've had not problems but people say the butterfly sticks after a while

I've always heard they stick, and I've always assumed they stick closed (?). But surely it's just a case that the throttle cable has stretched slightly and now the butterfly is cutting into the TB bore? If so, just tweek the slack out of the throttle cable which you would have been wanting to do anyway.
