Re: for those running throttle body exhaust cutouts, i have a few Q's
 

I remembered after we talked that I had to grind down the throttle body's lip to get it to fit but an angle grinder will make quick work of aluminum

You have a Miata, and have kept me ignorant of it's build? BAN

ha his cutout is pretty sweet, im copying the idea, hah thanks

who, me or Yamaha6611? If me, I've had a turbo miata for like a year.

mines for a crx, hes talking about you haha

I plan on trying this setup out soon.... 70mm cutout, electric, off a 04+ gm 3800 motor.

Should be plenty heat tolerant... its an all steel design. It is made of alum though.. so I dont know what sort of thermal properties that would give me issues with... I plan on making the mounting holes on the steel flange very large to allow for expansion.

all steel design but it's made of aluminum?

Re: for those running throttle body exhaust cutouts, i have a few Q's
 

Keep that in mind. Dont take too much material off at once. It's easier to take away than it is to add.

Wow, i made 2 posts in your thread without catching on fire. :y

Re: for those running throttle body exhaust cutouts, i have a few Q's
 

Duh, uh I meant to say that the motor/electric bits are all steel, (as in no plastic gears or whatever) and the body of made out of a cast aluminum white metal... The melting point should be a bit higher than pure aluminum, and have heating properties similar to aluminum (aka it basically will go from fine to a bubbly mess in a small temperature difference).

Yea I am a dumbass... here is some porn...
