Audi throttle bodies

[Cmr446@cs.com (Cmr446@cs.com)]

  Patrick has it right, as well as the GT Coupe. The tubo TB isn't so much 
too big, but the wrong shape. It's a single, large valve instead of two 
butterfly valves like you would see in the regular TB. 
  If you're going out to grab one, be sure you bring with you not only the 
6mm allen socket, but a 7mm allen, 1/4 in. allen, hammer, vice grips, and a 
can of either PB Blaster or Liquid Wrench to soak the TB bolts with. The 
first time I grabbed one of the larger TBs it came off almost too easy, the 
second one I needed the tools I mentioned, and a lot of persistance! :)
