Hi guys, I'm thinking to go for individual TB.
Actually they're my mods: (7AFE)
- P&P head
- polished valves
- Fuel pressure regulator
- GT4 fuel pump
- H&M filter
- Arospeed header
- custom exhaust
- SAFC2
- in a few days MSD5 with timing control

Now, I spoke with different mechanics and about all of them say that individual throttle bodies is the ideal solution for a NA engine if u tune the A/f ratio properly.Now, with my AFC I can do it, so what do you think about it?

Thanks.

Depending on size and lenghts, from 1 hp to a couple depending on setup.

You will get better performance in all rpm ranges with 48 -50mm TB, but to take full advantage, you really need to rise above normal mods like exhaust and air filter.

I mean cams, header, bigger bore, big valves, increase in compression, fuel and so forth.

So just going to TB will add a couple HP for a very high $ cost.

I would advice anyone to stay away from them unless you are heading down to some serious mods for NA.

For Force induction, will see a benefit since manifold or TB would post less of a restriction to air than the old manifold.

Look at this. This came off my turbo write up.
