That looks sweet. I've seen the overbored throttlebodies but never much done to the intake manifolds besides port matching.

Jason, what'd this run you?

 

damn fd3boost when r u gonna be getting ur car back? id like to hear how it turns out with those mods.



and what exactly does this throttle body mod do, what kind of power increase can u expect?

 

Not really anything that I think you will notice.

It just kinda cleans up the intake tract.

Hey every little bit helps right?





The car has been down for a long time. Seems like forever. I am assembling the engine block this Saturday.

I expect it all to be done and ready for inspection in the end of February.

 

For my surge tank polished on the inside.

my intake manifold ported and polished

the double throttle removed---$800 the

throttle was $500 to have done, they changed

the butterflies with that too.



Im just starting to boost, and WOW!



I cant wait to get my boosting broke in so I can

start tearin it up...

 

You know that break in periods are kinda bogus right Jason?

You don't really need to break it in.

 

I get these 2 pops when I press on the gas pretty hard..



Not like power lose pops, kind of weird, anoying to me at

first, but im use to it now

 

Fd3BOOST-- opinions always very man. I do it to be safe. I had a buddy with a trueno, he was always overhauling his own engines, so after one overhaul without breaking in the engine, he just stomped on it. BOOM! So ever since then I go with the break in you know.......?



If I had the midus touch, maybe I wouldnt hehehe

 

only reasons ive ever heard for breaking in is for letting parts mate to each other and to wear very tight to each other to give great compression and what not. So you actually produce more power as the parts are worn together.

Never heard of anyone blowing **** in from not breaking an engine in, just not having all of the power they could have.

 

What he said happend exactly was:





I stepped on the gas and the RPMs starting going up ofcourse

and he said around 4000, he said it started getting really slugish

and the RPMs werent rising as much and he said he kept the pedal

pressed and around 6500 it went boom, actually it just seized.

 

hmmm, maybe that was from improper clearancing during assembly.
