Is the bigger throttle body going to throw a CEL? If it isn't then i absolutely plan on ordering one within the next week.

The bigger throttle body should NOT trigger a CEL. They should be available in the next couple weeks. We are slightly behind schedule.

i was pretty disappointed but can always find shorter bolts i guess

You were going to have the SPACER installed, NOT the throttle body. Wow, they didnt just cut the bolts down or get shorter ones? Thats strange.. I guess that might be out of the realm of that shops skills...

I installed my own, the bolts look close, but install no prob.. I had the same thought while installing, but the included hardware does work.

As a whole with my I/H/E & P I am sure there is, I can beat
similar boxes with all the same mods, but no spacer... I wanted to dyno before and after, but never did..

Well that WR intake manifold can no longer be found on WR's site. Last I saw, it's date was moved from 12/25 to TBA.

As far as the TB from OBX, it has yet to be released.

There were issues with the prototype and they yanked it. No real gain. Be glad they didn't try to sell them.
