Honestly... IMO, some of the things those guys (celica.net n/a power forum regulars) do and/or think they should do, are pointless... worthless... and backwards. Crazy mix'n match stuff... swap stock parts for stock parts... spends hundreds for a stupid mod using stock parts that can potentially cause power losses rather than gains... amougst other random cut-paste ideas. An example... Schmleff's TB upgrade... which he basically builds and welds and adaptor to fit a 22RE throttle body... FYI... if you REALLY want a good EFI intake system... ITB's (Individual throttle bodies) is the ONLY way to go. Considering Schmleff has access to a machine shop (something even I don't have immediate access to)... he can just as easily build an adaptor plate capable of mating 4AG 20V ITB's to the 5SFE and or 7AFE. Instead... he spends a lot of time custom fitting a single throttle body that has no real advantage over the stock one (the stocker is that size for a reason) which will do little for his torque band (might actually lose intake velocity which will cause torque loss)... Kinda backwards if you ask me... but whatever... the readers of that forum seem to really look up to him...  Back on topic... Like mentioned above... you'll only need/want to do the throttle body upgrade if your engine is capable of utilizing it (higher compression, forced induction, aggressive cam profile, etc...) Might not even do anything on a stock motor... This post has been edited by Kwanza26: Aug 11, 2004 - 3:26 AM -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
