Lightbulb Throttle Body

Since I'm installing the TPC supercharger, I need to replace the Varioram with a Throttle body from a 95. Does anyone have one they want to sell? If not any recs on where to source one from? While I'm at it, does it make sense to put a bigger or better throttle body?

Thanks

I have a 1995 C4. Are the Intakes interchangeable??? I have a couple of open connectors on my updated wiring harness and I thought they might be related to varioram??

Thanks for the link. I don't think I'm going to sell the VarioRAM unit since I want to be able to return it to stock.

And yes you can use a VarioRAM on a 95, although I'm not sure whats entailed in retrofitting.

That's what their install manual says. Did yours come with one?

From the manual...
"SPECIAL NOTE: the following items are needed for the installation which are NOT included, you
can obtain these items from your local dealer.
’96-’98 993 with Vario-Ram
# 993 110 128 11 throttle body
# 993 110 367 04 rubber hose"

Why do you need the '95 throttle body ? My TPC kit was complete and other than the injectors and piggy back chip, went in asis.

Sachin - Are you doing the TPC install yourself? I am considering getting one, but will have a mechanic familiar with this install handle it.

Midwest Eurosport in Chicago is going to install the SC. I'm going to install the Intercooler afterwards.

Sachin, Sound like you have a TPC SC on your car now. How is it? Big horsepower as advertised or is it lacking? I am considering the mod. but I am having second thoughts. I have been to their shop, quite impressive and all, but I am also hearing about some less than stellar results. Please give me your hands on impressions. Also any other TPC SC users, please chime in with your experiences with this. Thanks!!
