If you don't need the extra flow, don't bother. Time and money better spent elsewhere, come back to the TB later down the road..

 

yeah well im boosted so i figured the better flow is gonna do alot for me plus there isnt much else i can do externally of the motor next im probly just gonna build a whole motor

 

turbo cam/cam gear, a new IM would benefit you more than just the TB, i know you're still looking for a clutch and a lightweight flywheel would help a lot....there are tons of stuff to do still. If you want to open up some flow though i'd really look at an aftermarket IM like the Victor X which has a very large plenum...

 

yeah true im just still debating on if i should get all this stuff for a single cam or start building a b series

 

well actually the h22/h23 throttle bodies are 62mm and yes they do make a difference that is quite noticeable! i had a 98 h22 throttle body on my 98 d16y8 in my civic ex coupe and i noticed a nice gain. the stock y8 was 56mm and the h22 is 62mm, now why wouldnt that be worth your time to swap them????? i even ported the intake where the throttle body bolted up because the intake opening was much smaller than the throttle body. so if i had to do it again i would definately do it again!

 

wow mike. i havent seen you on here in awhile. hows the shop going?

 

man im looking for a new location. the owner never lived up to his end of the deal. i never got a new garage door, no new drive way, hell i never even got running water so im looking again

 

that really sucks a big one dude. isnt his new shop just around the corner? just start going over there and complaining everyday.

 

anyone know abnout how much it would be to port the intake manifold?? i know i could get it for free but it would take too long ..any suggestions of a certain place to go or anything?

 

im sure it wouldnt be hard to do yourself. if not, talk to more impatient, i believe he was doing some porting himself. if so im sure hed probably do it cheap just to get more practice.
