Well you've got more R&D into this idea than I do, I was just tossing some ideas out there. Nothing wrong with the S5 TPS system, just thought you could gain some real estate on the TB if you felt so inclined.



If the quick throttle open is no problem for you, then do it up. I'd love to see the results. I would be hesitant, but now that you mention the other systems, that warms me up to the idea a little bit.



I'm still not sure how you're going to plumb this exactly, especially with an NC solenoid. I was thinking NO solenoid would be more effective since the car will spend more time in low RPM range with the plates held shut, but I may be misinterpreting your intention for plumbing. Can you give me a quick schematic in paint or something?

Yeah, I'll try to get a basic schematic drawing with ms paint up tonight after I get off of work. I don't have much time since I am just on lunch break.

I feel this could benefit 1/2 bridge engines and ones with extreme porting on the secondary side. Stock, I dont think you will see much.



Something to be mindful of, you want to have good steady airflow when those secondary injectors come on. Or you could have problems.

trust me, I don't plan to stage the injectors till at least a couple hundred rpm after the plates open. Even so, they don't come on all at once either. They gradually stage. Thanks for the concern nonetheless.

Honestly, I think any engine including stock ports has some benefit with this set up. I will be street ported. So yeah.



Sorry, won't be getting a diagram up, I'm extremely tired from work and will be heading to bed here soon.

tomorrow hopefully I have more energy.

Whenever you get some time man, no big deal, no appologies required.



All critique here is constructive.

ALRIGHTY THEN!!!! Looks like I drew up a very generic diagram. Decided to use a different diaphram because it worked easier with the system. I will be exposing it to boost as well and it holds the plates closed witout the aid of vacuum pressure, though I will have it exposed to vacuum anyways.



Please forgive the "sketchy" nature of the picture. Hopefully it gets the point across .

Yeah, I like the simplicity of the system. If it doesn't work, I'll just remove the throttles and seal it.
