You did not specify so I'll not make the assumption it was stock without asking.  Stock throttle body?  If aftermarket from HPI they had a known problem a couple of years ago and broke several.

Yes it is the stock throtle. My tech was able to find a take off someone had from an upgrade so it was used. I drive hard maybe too hard for a hog. If I go to an aftermarket I believe I would have to have it dynoed and I have aready payed for that once Hoplng to spend some $ on other upgrades
