See the pics here



I also bought a RB upper intake manifold for the DCOE setup but it's pretty crappy I might send it back:



Junk RB UIM



first time I've had a problem with a RB product, kindof annoying.





BTW, the TWM setup, including fuel rail, horns, and throttle body, cost $530 or so. RB UIM is $130 (wish they would have charged more if it would have meant a better casting!)



You can see in the pics that the provided E6K TPS does not mount up quite right, TWM wants a ridiculous amount of money for their TPS, I might cave and buy it though

Yeah I bought it direct, I had already emailed atongko@racingbeat.com about it who I've talked to before regarding other purchases, he forwarded it to someone there named 'jim tanner'... He told me to contact him directly, so I did, via email (he provided no # or extension ....) with info on what happened and the link to the pictures, he has not replied... that was last week.



Got a number for jim I can call?

48mm or 45mm? Do you need to still run the primary/secondary injector setup? I've had absolutely great results with TWM's with a motec m4 pro and an old E6S on miata 1800's. You might want a taller air horn for street use, calms the air down and provides smoother down low response. You are going to love how that works!

I just gotta find a nice piece to take the RB UIM place, or fix the RB one.
