Hi people
I have heard that bore out the stock b16a throttle body will give u a lil bit of power gain and make u feel like theres more power when there's reali not much.. So jus getting some information about throttle bodies..
Should i get new or can i give some1 to help mi bore the throttle body bigger from say 60mm to 62mm or 64mm? haha thanks

just say if you do bore the Throttle body couple of millimetres just say 2mm..
would you need to change the butterfly aswell? since it wouldn't be the right size?
ermms better off goin new throttle body then if thats the case?
lol if that makes sense?
if not just ignore it i dunno what im on about
lol

it would make a difference
might improve ur top end power.
might lag u abit down low.
if ur gonna do TB may aswell go IM..

yeah i gonna tune it using poor man VAFC after i finish though... ITR Intake manifold and throttle body is gd?
Approximate increase in power after tuning? If bottom end is lost in terms of torque and bottom end response? if thats the case would it make the b16 totally torqueless. Not easy to drive in the land of V8s haha..

Ic... But for now its already shit out of the vtec zone. Guess its a trade off.. btw how much approximate gain after tuning. Coz combo is not gonna be cheap so i am considering its benefits. thanks..

well the figures aren't gonna be thorugh the roof..
and im sure ur not tuning just for power figures.
but all these mods compliment each other and it will go well with the mods you currently have so it would be better if you did have them. if its out of the budget then just leave them out.
anything after I/H/E is gonna be expensive.. coz everything after that needs to be tuned to get its full potential out of the mod.
