I never mentioned doing a throttle body. At this time there aren't many options in the affordable range from any reputable companies. I will be doing a header and intake but so far intake gains I still lean towards being minimal if not null.

I can't think of a bigger waste of money than a larger throttle body. People need to really learn how airflow works rather than worrying about how big their cock is all the time.

Most of the japanese manufacturer's properly size the throttle body from the factory so it's not at all a restriction. |

^^ It all depends on if the stock TB is actually a restriction or not. It has nothing to do with volume of air or number of cylinders alone.
Most 2L engines upgrade to smaller than what we have stock, but people just seem to jump on the bigger is better train without doing any digging.

Anyone looking at buying a bigger TB should first log their car to see if they're even getting 100% throttle position as the revs climb. I bet your money would be far better spent having the tune "fixed" to get 100% throttle rather than buying a bigger TB.

Are we gonna have a STG 2 EL BPB? I feel like the EL guys are left a bit behind in map refinement vs UEL. I know you sell OFH but no everyone like the UEL sound. @shiv@vishnu Last edited by Victor Draken; 04-03-2014 at 11:03 AM. |
