What are peoples experiences of KMS throttle bodies, are they any different than the Jenvey ones?

So no performance disadvantages then Sandy? i.e am I better going after these barely used ones or buy new jenvey's?

As opposed to plated mild steel ones on Jenveys. No disadvantages I'm aware of.

no you will need a mapable ecu. that is capable of managing fuel and spark.

Ive run them for years and I think they do the job very, very well. The linkage is very good, and they dont have the wanky linkage pipe for fuel that the jenveys have. The only one part I didnt like was the fact the holes that old them to the inlet manifold are actually threaded, so it can make them hard work to bolt on.

 

Apart from that a big thumbs up and cheap! I will be selling my 45's in the next few weeks if your interested, they have covered around 5000miles, going for an upgrade.
