hey guys im planning to put the type s manifold but i want to keep the tl-p TB if i get the OE spacer for the tl-p will it still bolt up right with the type s IM. thx

 

Yes but why would you want to do that? The 2.75" TB will restrict the amount of air getting into the IM and you probably won't see much if any gains.

Are you planning to hook up the bypass valve actuator? I still haven't got around to getting mine hooked up. I can definitely feel a big loss of power when VTEC kicks in since the second chamber is shut.

 

NSXNEXT you gotta hook the actuator toan RPM switch man. With your mods that should prove to be a killer setup and quite a bit of power for a tl-p. I want a TL-S IM, lower IM, fuel rail and TB and then put a new CAI, maybe next year.

 

Why would you put the larger intake on, but put a bottle neck with keeping the TL-P TB?? It would be pointless to do what you want.

 

Have everything ready to install, just haven't gotten around to installing it.

Recently installed an OEM TypeS airbox without the lower resonator. I had built a custom CAI but it was a bitch to keep clean.

 

Don't waste your time and money. TL-S throttle body is a must when you are alreadly doing the manifolds. Get as much power as you can out of it.

 

man the TB is pricey

nsxnext im going to get the bypass valve actuator also

 

the only thing i didn't want to put the type s TB its cause i bought a aem v2 like a month ago. Will the aem v2 still mount on the type s TB?

 

Yes if you get a 2.75" to 3" hose adapter or really stretch the 2.75" coupler but again, you're not getting the proper airflow into the TB and IM since the V2 is 2.75" and the TB is 3".

 

yea dont put that V2 on the type s TB...i did that and once i changed the intake to a 3" intake i felt a BIG difference in power...if u wanna keep the V2 cut the 2.75" pipe off of it...open up the intake to 3" and have someone weld a 3" pipe where the 2.75" pipe used to be

 

lol just sell the AEM for an intake made for a Type-S.

 

Though im sure it will still make power over the stock tubing. If you find a welder in the area you could have them cut off the 2.75 pipe and weld a 3" section on pretty cheap

 

In my post I stated TB. Of course I meant TL-S TB to match the rest of the parts. Then a TL-S CAI to match everything.

 

My post was directed at the OP

 

okay i will cut the 2.75 inch pipe wel d a 3 inch

tommy--->i paid 335$ for the v2 with shipping if im going to sell it i will not get my money back it will be loss for me

 

im going to get the bypass valve actuator brand new but the IM and the TB i will get used. it won't cause me any probs right if i get them used?

 

No why would it. As long as its in good shape and not damaged it will be just fine

 

The IM really doesn't have any parts that would go bad. Throttle body? You never know, could have a dirty IACV.

Ask the people you buy it from what the warranty is on it if there are problems.

 

ill try to find clean one, cause man a new tb cost some pennys.

how much hp will this conversion give like 5-8?

 

my guess is a solid 10whp and definitely more low end toque.

 

do i have to change the lower intake also

 

if i change the IM, TB and buy a new bypass valve actuator. if i will be ordering the OE spacer witch model do i have to get type s?

 

The lower IM (a.k.a. injector bases) are the same for the TL and TLS for model years 00-03.

The 99 is the only one that is different. If memory serves me, the 99 TLP runners are egg shaped versus round on the others.
