I will have the new nw 102 on my car in the next week or so,ive been waiting to get the hammer head setup done and then ill put the new version through the ringer,i see no reason that it wouldnt work great

Are you boring OEM and modding gears? Dont have to tell all just let me know if you are selling and is it reliable for FI Maggie etc?

Inquiring minds want to know?

Thanks

T, track testing or beating it up on the street? Are you going to have a new , production unit? Meaning will it have the metal gears instead of plastic ones? I'm pretty sure that his new revamp works. We just all need to get one!!

. Please keep us posted.
Thanks!

I sure hope he has something soon.

TPIS said they would ship back mine 2 weeks ago and still don't have it...

NO!

They said they can find nothing wrong!!!

They said they would ship it back to me 3 weeks ago and now after 15 total weeks of them having it WITH NO CALL I still have no TB!

BS if you ask me..

My car occasionally threw the P2135 limp mode from pulling the blade shut too, N/A. 14:1 compression and 600rwhp here, and it only happens about 25% of the pulls (7400 rpm limiter), but it does do it. It appears radical NA setups can trigger it too :( guess I need the updated version.

We did devise a workaround fix for the issue though, and to see why it works you have to understand what a P2135 actually means to the computer. The computer sees the throttle being more open (or less open) then requested via accelerator pedal, which essentially to the computer, is a runaway engine. This is why the cars go into limp mode. It you actually turn the P2135 to "no error reported" the computer wont ever go into limp mode VIA that code. Solved the issue on my car, at least as far as I can tell. Might be worth a shot for some of you boosted folks.

Just out of curiousity how much gain are you all seeing with this TB? Seems like alot of BS for a little gain. I have never ran anything but the stock TB and never had an issue.

Yeah, but none of your shit went faster than low 10's. This thread is for the ballers!!! Beat it speedy!!

I am disappointed that NW is now a ghost.

There's no doubt it will hold. Is your tb getting the metal gears or the plastic (test) gears? If metal, I'd suspect we will all be getting tb's soon.

Whipped416 · 07-02-2012, 09:16 PM

metal... he says there is quite a bit of machine work to be done... so i over nighted it to him today and im hopeing to see in tuesday wend. next week.. did u send your tb in to him jamie??
