What would i get a throttle body for?? Im not racing nor do i intend to race...Lexani wheels are way to heavy to race with...And im sorry, but i dont consider myself a normal anything...Not a normal lowrider nor a normal ricer as you call it

throttle body looks good for show to if you have the enigne to race just not the right rims as you say cause those are heavy rims but in a show that will help you and from what i rember it isn't that much.. my freind took second place in a show here cause this other car had throttle body that was the only differnce it was wierd there cars where they same colour stock honda green and stock intior they had the same engine the b16a I think done all the same things never even meet not even from the same state and the other dude won on that...

whether you fit throttle bodies or intake system you'll still need to uprate the exhaust to get rid of the extra gas you'll be making, throttle bodies are nice but require regular tuning, cleaning. UCYI3WL has the right ideas.

I dont do 'normal' stuff either, but everyone has to agree some shit works and some shit doesn't.

Thumbs up

The only intakes ive seen are racing versions which i dont care to get into...Im just gonna chrome the valve cover, powdercoat the heat shield where the headers hook up, and chrome some odds and ends...Thanks for the advice on the intake though...

lol...general rule of thumb is 3" and above for forced induction and 2.5" for Normaly Aspirated.

Best performing exhaust for my engine (4age 16v - mild tune) is 68mm so i have to make do with 2.5"(63mm) otherwise the exhaust gasses cool slightly too quickly creating a blockage.
