Default How to remove TB?

I am looking at buying a the KO M3 throttle body kit for the M42 as well as a KO CAI.

Can anyone tell me how hard it is (or how) to remove the stock TB?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

What is the "KO TB" ? I never heard of it. I was planning to buy the DBilas ITB. Can you give me a link ?

very easy! just be sure to remove the little rubber grommet holding the throttle cable/also connected to cruise control so it will allow the cable to come right out. don't snip the end of the cable, then you'll have some problems.

Awesome thanks!

The KO TB kit converts the 318ti throttle body to an M3 throttle body. The M3 throttle body is larger than the Dinan 318ti throttle body and costs less.

I just talked to McCormic Motorsports in Lousville Kentucky. They make complete ITB assemblys for the M42/44. Sounds like a great place. Cost was 750-1000 dollars. It comes with everything that is needed. If you want to talk to them the phone number is 1 502 584 1981.

Sounds great, but as I am from Belgium I think that's going to be a bit of a problem

Although if they're willing to ship across the Atlantic ...

Ja, naturally, but a DBilas ITB kit costs about 1700$ over here so ...

But then again, DBilas offers one of thé, if not thé best throttle body for the M42/M44 engines, especially in conjunction with forced induction...

Well no...I would expect at least the 8 Dinan quotes for theirs, but maybe a little more. Just give KO Performance a call. They will tell you all about it.
