This BBT is bigger in daimater so when u flaw your pedal more air is injected into your engine thus your ride become smoother and ligther . for go those E68 , magnet , capusle etc.... this is more meaningful and it works as well bro.. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor68 Turbocharged May 29, 2005 Share May 29, 2005 Please give more details, things like cost, what improvements? FC, power, etc. BTW can this do done on Optra? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cktham Neutral Newbie May 29, 2005 Share May 29, 2005 Hello there, My first post... Viewing from the photo, my guess in the purchase was made from www.mancando.com, costing at $270 without installation. In fact, the latest Hot Stuff mag has a review om BBTB. According to the acticle, it improves the engine performance with more airflow. Basically the stock diameter of the thorttle body of say 55mm dia, the BBTB offers 3mm more = 58mm. As for FC, I do not think it will imrprove. CK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aveoshark Neutral Newbie May 29, 2005 Share May 29, 2005 Hi, jus to share..I have done this throttle body mod in my previous ride. I consider it a good mod as the mid to high rev is more free and more eager. HOwever, you may need to add in a fuel regulator to balance your A/F mixture..otherwise you risk running too lean. FC will go up..in my case, quite marginal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aveoshark Neutral Newbie May 29, 2005 Share May 29, 2005 Hi Steamboat, It is not possible to get caught with an enlarged throttle body as it is very discreet unless someone purposely "Tua" u Inspection don't check pop open bonnet and check one lah...

Newsman 1st Gear May 31, 2005 Share May 31, 2005 Installed in yr Aveo5? Post us yr independence review & experience. More Horse power to climb Ben Bridge & overtake in NS Hiway.... FC above 12-13km to a Litre for Aveo5..... Both add up to be good investment? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aveoshark Neutral Newbie May 31, 2005 Share May 31, 2005 Sorry bro..I was refering to my Subaru TS..I changed the throttle body to a larger diameter and the result was very good..but I guess the same effect would apply to any car as well since more air intake is always welcome but got to balance with fuel. I hope I don't need to mod my AVEO 5 so soon...hehehh...but looks like inevitable after talking to you guys.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forenzawagonr Neutral Newbie June 5, 2005 Share June 5, 2005 Do you also install Fuel Regulator? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerd_on_wheels Neutral Newbie June 5, 2005 Share June 5, 2005 ehhh, another wagon owner . never join in our chat over at the station wagon thread ? mine is SW also. I not sure how this bbt thing work also, i am mechanically retard. but I guess now the entry bigger, so air flow better. but not sure if have or not in the first place for optra also. But my guess is, if its available for the saloon, the wagon can use, coz the compartment layout is the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forenzawagonr Neutral Newbie June 6, 2005 Share June 6, 2005 {{but not sure if have or not in the first place for optra also}}... gd news! i received email from my cousin who migrated to Canada. he wrote that in CA Optra oni comes in 1.8 & 2.0 version & 1.6 unavailable but we can use the 1.8 Throttle Body in our 1.6 Optra. Fitting are the same except the 1.8 Throttle Body 'diameter' is bigger than our 1.6 but 2.0 not adviseable (high FC & require ECU tuning). he is now checking the price for the 1.8 Throttle Body and i will post $ once he reply. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
