What is it? What exactly does it do? Do you benefit from it alot? Is there any for the TSX? etc

I think you're referring to the individual throttle butterflies used on the BMW M cars. This basically allows for infinitely controllable throttle opening for each cylinder. I'm not sure exactly what the advantage of this is, but it is not available for the TSX.

Our car only has one throttle body for all four cylinder. A car with indivitual throttle bodies means that there is a separate throttle for every cylinder. You don't often see them on production cars because they add considerable expense and are much harder to tune properly. It's pretty well reserved for race cars now.

Toda makes a kit for the S2000: http://www.todaracing.com/products/h...le_bodies.html

A K24 application would look similar if anyone were to make one.

Edit: Here's a shot of the throttle bodies on the M3:

my friend makes them for gsr motors and he has a shop in north carolina,he uses a throttle bodies off a gsxr motorcycle if im not mistaken but he said he sells them for 800-1000 depending on the aplication,he said he is going to try to make one for a rsx when he had some free time , david

i have seen it for the rsx already thats why i am asking if there is one for the tsx also do we have adjustable cam gears for the tsx yet and i think it is Toda who made it for the k20A engine

my friend say vtec with itb is plain nasty but i havent seen it in person so im not 100% sure on this ,but i would like to see the gains on such a pricey mod ..david

i am saying i saw it in the magazine and toda eacing was saying that they make them don't care the price i want them with some adjustable cam gears i am not drag but i am going to race i want a road race car basically some long runs like from Bronx to places like Virgina, Florida etc also i wanted to know if anyone knew if there is a filter that goes over that I mean like how we have a CAI for the singke throttle body what would we put on the individual one?

What engine to we have in the TSX. Example B20 B18 K20A. I wrote an email to Toda and they need this info.

Dan Martin

Our engine is the K24A2

The only way you're going to be able to do individual throttle bodies on a TSX is if you were to eliminate the DBW system which would also require you to get an aftermarket ECU like the K-Pro for the RSX.

Your probably better off to go for a supercharger or turbo. It will probably cost about the same.

You should search. This is one of the most common topics on this board. Here's a link to get you started:

For someone who is planning to race, you should know that information already.

The TSX already has 2 adjustable cam gears. It is integrated in the i-VTEC system.

You sure you're into racing?

TSX 3Pedal

Anyone hear about any new appliations for the TSX yet?

xizor

I wouldn't keep my hopes up for a TSX specific one, these are usually designed for sports cars or track cars like the S2000. If there is an RSX one you might be able to retrofit it since its a K-series engine, but expect to lose the DBW functionality.

TSX 3Pedal

What are the advantages of DBW anyway?

Dan Martin

It's main purpose is to allow the VSA system to reduce power if it detects wheelspin.

One adjustable - the intake.

The stock ECU will not handle ITBs.
