Looks good! Steve did my TB not to long ago and he was great to deal with, I recommend him as well!

On a side note, did you get it bored out as well? When he built mine and I got it bored out it came back with a stainless plate, yours looks to be the oem plate. Just curious, not that it really matters.
 
No i didnt have it bored, i just wanted it rebuilt like new, and hopefully this will help with my crazy idle surging.
 
Was your car just surging all the time, even stopped at idle? That's what my car does and it makes me want to throw the whole car in the garbage.

well when you would first start it up cold it would shoot all the way up to nearly 3600 rpms and then surge, when it would finally warm up it would drop to about 22-2500 then still surge very fast. and sometime it would just die. like if you were to just let it idle for a few mins it would for sure die eventually Lol, so i sent the Throttle body to get rebuilt, and got another ISC, and sent my ECU to get looked at to see if my ISC drivers in it were bad. now everything is installed and just waiting on the ECU to get back, after that i'll have my fingers crossed and start her up and hope my Idle prob goes away. either way im still gonna take her all the way from california to this years DSM shootout:thumb:

That throttle body look's Hella clean.

Thanks man, I HIGHLY recommend you to him
 
nope, ever since i installed the new throttle body with new ISC, se idles freakin perfect now man:thumb: ask augustin he's heard it too
 
Glad it worked out for you man. I'm in need for a rebuild soon. How much was the rebuild? If you don't mind me asking.
 
Like 150 for everything. Not bad at all man. That included the fiav blockoff plate, all new seals and gaskets and o-rings

That's badass..Maybe I will get mine done..Stupid idle surge..
 
yeah man, shit was driving me crazy. not only did it used to surge, but it would just die sometimes and when i would first start it up it would go all the way to like 3900 rpms. it was embarassing.
 
Makes me want to send mines out for a rebuild but it sucks being a broke college student :|
