 Is anyone still enlarging the diameter of our throttle bodies, Wouldn't it be nice to add a bit of power with a little more air?? |

Late to the conversation. But I remember talking about different plenums and ran an idea that got Jake's approval back in the day, swapping an older version. It's all talk until we see what works.
Bigger isn't always better. If you can't measure the flow and the related combustion, it's all guesswork. Bigger inlet doesn't necessarily mean more air flow where it's needed. In fact smaller can be more effective. Too many factors. |
