Relatively easy install. IMO, the hardest part was cleaning the old gasket material off and pulling the damn hoses.

Thanks to Edddie for the extra hand. I will post pictures in a short bit. Though the kit comes with instructions, a picture install is always helpful, so I'll post that up too.

I cleaned the TB while everything was apart. The response is so much better!

The butt dyno is definitely there, WOW. I'm very impressed and would highly recommend this cheap mod.

What did you use to clean the TB? That's not a bad idea since you have it taken apart, already.

Edddie

We used "Throttle Body Cleaner." You can get it at any auto store.

How long did the install take you? Did you use all the materials that came with the kit or was there something that you were able to reuse?

NiteQwill

About 2-2.5 hours. You use all the materials, there is nothing you reuse.

will i run out of fuel w/ s/c hbp + 50 shot?

E-manage is a must...

My A/F was between 11.0:1 and 12:0:1 on the dyno so plenty of fuel with just the HBP. Actually it didn't lean out to 12.0:1 until 7,000 rpm.

I'd think you'd need more fuel via 7th injector, e-manage, etc.

You going to spray direct port?

I'm wondering how things would hold up if I shot a small (35) shot directly into the IC at the track...

Here is the DIY:

BTW, I pulled a OBD Code after the install on my test drive... P1399 (Random Cylinder Misfire/Ignition Control System); this was in 3rd gear around 5200RPM. The check engine light started blinking then went away.

I scanned and reset the code. No problems since.

Do you guys think it was an ECU adjustment problem?

mattg

you really want to spend another $500?

Edddie

LOL at this point what's another $500?

I probably won't do it. But i'm curious to see if it would hold up.

I'm sure if I didn't swap the blower pulley it would hold up fine.

someone should also post how the engine cover will no longer fit but all that is nessecary is to modify the cut out for what i think is the TPS what ever connector that is on top of the TB...this will likely be my next mod

Edddie

Nope, the engien cover will not fit without a slight Dremel modification.

mattg

F the engine covers


i only run the front cover anyways.

NiteQwill

Just did an "under the hood feel." Wow, the IM and TB are nearly cold to the touch with the engine warmed up and on. The combination of the JetHot, Mugen mods, and Thermoblok has seriously cut come underhood temps. My busy ass needs to get a dyno.

Allout

Good to see another recommendation

When is the SC going in???

mattg

soon, very soon.

Allout

I would imagine before WCM4

mattg

long before

Edddie

Did you guys see the DIY? I was the hand model for most of the pictures.

Allout

I was wondering who's hand that was. Figured Dustin brought in a professional hand model for this. I haven't seen a hand like that since George Costanza was at his peak.

Allout

I guess you'll have plenty of time to tune.

Edddie

That's exactly what I told him! I can also be bigger than that guy from Zoolander.

typeR

what was that a scholl for ants...it would have to be atleast....3 times bigger than this
