Throttle Body Conversion

[Sim]

Would this improve performance seen few cars have it done? How? Why?

Thanks

What engine do you have? It is an expensive thing to do, and would only be beneficial if you are doing other bits of tuning tbh.

Ahh it was just out of interest I wouldn't do to my car.

Well if you look at it like this,

Take a normal throttle body 60mm diameter

Area = 3.142 x 60 = 188.52mm2

Then say take the blacktop quad throttle bodies which i have to fit to my car theyre 42mm diameter i think so

Area = 42 x 4 = 168mm

= 3.142 x 168 = 527.86mm2

So you can just imagine the amount of air that can now get into the cylinder to increase combustion and there for create more power but obvious cams, manifolds,exhausts,injectors and ECU's have to be chosen carefully to match the increase airflow.

Hope that helps

so thats what you was talking about today then,

makes it alot clearer now.

how did you get on with the ecu re-wiring on the borg?
