Fitting Throttle body

[Stevieg]

Hi all,

I just recently got a J's Big Bore Throttle body and was wondering how easy it is to fit. Any there any hard bits i should be aware of? Also do the coolent pipe connect up to it?

Cheers,

Steve

As per other thread for the coolant pipes

Fitting is a Piece o Pi$$

again, IVTEC cover off, unclip the throttle cable and all sensors, remove 2 bolts and 2 nuts, tap it off with a soft hammer.

clean up the inlet on the Intake manifold removing traces of old gasket, refit is reverse of removal

reset ECU

enjoy!

Cheers for the replies mate

do you need to blank off the coolant pipes when you remove it - as wont the coolant leak out all over the shop?

Not really, when they realise as its in bits on the driveway . Call into any Stealership and get one form the parts dept - you might have to order one. 8)

Is there any performance gains to be made with these say for example the 70mm throttle bodies? :?
