I remember you saying that a while ago about this when someone else was going to use the TA kit. what thread was it in that you posted the pics? Do you remember?

Support the vendors or don't - as long as you keep your car running and get out of it what you want, that’s all good. Eventually you will have money to do it over again the right way or sell it to someone who prefers quality over JB weld... and you wonder why we have an almost laughable aftermarket.
I am co-owner of Forced4 Motorsports/Tiny Avenger; got into it for the cars, not for the money. Hell I work two jobs on top of this damn business to keep it alive. If you think that’s a load of crap then go price out CnC'ed laser cut aluminum plates (yeah, so you don't have to put a gasket between them) and a short run of the transition hose - the size is exclusive to the kit. (They'd never make you one and tooling the line alone would run you about $100.) Then add in the hardware, Pigtail and gasket... Hope you have deep pockets.
Oh, and thanks to that PRICE!; as Shannon put it, the adapter kit exists, albeit barely. That considered I guess it will be good news to some that the kit is being sunset. Ford has obsolete the 65mm Throttle Body, so wave bye-bye to an eight year running aftermarket part. Oh, did I mention the TB sells for $120 less than Ford Racing's MSRP.
Now for the good news - For those who supported Tiny Avenger and Forced4 by buying our products - well, future customers have them to thank... why you ask? Because support equals progress; and that makes it possible for us to development more aftermarket direct bolt on parts for the Ford 2.3. A pretty simple concept and quite possible even in a niche market if you don’t expect to get rich.
Cheers.
I haven't messed with anything other than stock replacement. I honestly don't see me making nearly enough power for a stage 3Xaranthu said:Hope you have a strong left leg. All else fails go with a Spec stage three... unless of course you toasted one of those already
