I was browsing the net last night and come across this picture of trd throttle body's (in link below) now this is something that I would like to knowing more about, this is where I hope that you can help, I don't know much about engines and most of what I know is from this forum. see pics of parts in posted by members and topics like the drift car.
there's lots of talk about turbo's and superchargers but none really on throttle body's. I know that the first 2 are good ways of getting big power gains for your money
could this be a reason that throttle body's are not cost effective for the money when you put the against turbos and superchargers, so could this be why it's not done much?
out of interest what do the touring cars have in them?
one of the main reasons why I've asked these questions is because it's something that I'm interested in doing to my altezza but don't fully understand how it all works
I love the sound the intake makes when I put my foot down, I still smile as much as the first time I did it this is a sound I DON'T want to lose on the hunt for power. so this is why I thought TB's would be a good way to go, am i right?
at the end of the the day I'm aiming for a 250hp n/a 3s-ge, any idea of what Rwhp could be ? and what the cost's could be getting there?
thanks for your time and any questions that you could answer would be greatly appreciated
Robin
