NA cars like stupid large TBs to smooth the transition across the throttle blade.

I guess I am retarded then. It doesn't really make sense to me.

:1

I guess it is worth a shot for the 135 that Professional Products sells their TBs for.

Thats for the ugly satin style and doesnt include shipping. Mine are 140 shipped and polished.

ya but wouldnt that (huge TB) hurt your flow velocity in midrange and bottom end power. for most mildly built cars running under 8k rpm wouldnt a huge TB be counterproductive unless its going to have the supporting compression and head package to rev to the effinency (NA of course).

to the original poster you shouldnt buy the "best" manifold but the one that best suits your powerband and flow needs i believe depending on your app.

when does a b series all motor/turbo build not get reved to 9k+. Simple they all do. B16a's bottom ends stock handle 10k its nothing new or omg crazy info. The bore/stroke flow of the motor is a result of the powerband of the b16a. Anything to improve this powerband anything in vtec past 5200 is the goal



Did you just not see 190 whp and over 115 lb torque with stock bottom end b16a,junk header,generic ecu program tuning with a fpr and a 70mm throttle body achieved back in 2001.


Now are you claiming that a smaller throttle body would net more power classic. Volume in high rpm applications is your goal


small stock bore 58mm throttle bodies dont do a damn thing but hinder high rpm hp. Welcome to reality.

WTF is the point when you stop building power at 7500-8000?

Was this achieved with stock cams because I seriously doubt it.
