romanooo Member 31 Member For: 16y 25d Gender: Male Location: SHEPPPP VIC Posted 26/03/09 06:51 AM Share Posted 26/03/09 06:51 AM Hi all,Getting some mods to my Bf N/A xr6 in near future, wondering if any other N/A owners have upgraded to a larger throttle body and if they have noticed a significant increase in performance? SS inductions have a 75mm option and its ''supposed'' to give an 8rwkw increase and even more if used with a CAI? Results or opinions appreciated Thanks guys,romano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mastrflexx Member 2 Member For: 17y 12d Posted 20/04/09 04:51 AM Share Posted 20/04/09 04:51 AM They don't do too much for our N/A cars. I've got one on my BF. I went ahead and ported the mouth of the manifold to the size of the T/B because the mouth is smaller which would create alot of turbulence before the air got into the manifold. And I haven't noticed any improvement since changing the T/B over. Maybe when I get the tune done with installation of my Crow Stage 2 cams there could be some mild improvement with the larger T/B.

SS inductions have a 75mm option and its ''supposed'' to give an 8rwkw increase and even more if used with a CAI? Results or opinions appreciated Thanks guys,romanoI have the SS inductions throttle body on my ute.. I didnt notice anything... I also bought the SS inductions intake, a underdriver balancer, ford flasher... then later on I bought the SS inductions Growler (I noticed more from the growler).. I then reinstalled the SS inductions intake and joined it up to the growler with a custom pipe (for more air)...but I personally reckon extractors, exhaust and growler is what you would notice the most.... I finally gave up on the N/A idea and have just purchased a CAPA Supercharger kit lolI would honestly advise you think about it... because if you decide to turbo or supercharge it later on.. you would have wasted all the money on the intakes, extractors and exhaust (cause you may need to buy a bigger exhaust again to get the most power out of it) Edited 28/04/09 10:57 AM by SEETO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
