Zzzz Neutral Newbie March 30, 2006 Share March 30, 2006 the butterfly flap may need to smoothen the profile while the enlarge bore allow a better flowrate. these two may need to do to yield a better performance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelpie 2nd Gear March 30, 2006 Author Share March 30, 2006 hehe...since I'm keeping my ES5 so I'm going to invest in some posion. Consulted Gary and decided to go for throttle mod. Done already, engine rev happily. Now have to watch out for fuel consumption. Regards, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoomer Clutched March 30, 2006 Share March 30, 2006 Gary's TB is a hand job... Its better to go for machine TB boring... it cost abt 3-40 more at most. There's a bro selling at SHC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelpie 2nd Gear March 30, 2006 Author Share March 30, 2006 Not much different in cost hor..you see, I'm new to mod lah. He told me throttle mod is the most effective and direct way to boost performance, the rest of the air intake/chargers aren't that effective. So far so good, enjoying the revs. One thing I like about this mod is, it leaves the engine bay looks stock as you don't need to clutter it with gadgets.
