Caddyslammed 16 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Just wondering if anyone can help on the subject of a larger throttle body installed onto the standard vr6 inlet manifold? any advantages disadvantages, ease of fitting etc..., i know that AMD do there own one for about £300, is it worth it? and overall is it worth doing at all, bear in mind this will be done with other mods, thanks Link to post Share on other sites

mightyvr6 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Don't get the one from AMD, get one from Alpina527 at less than half the price. Link to post Share on other sites

FishWick 21 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 alpina527@aol.comIan is a top bloke and turns the throttles round very quickly. It's on an exchange basis so you'll need to send him your old one. Link to post Share on other sites
cadguy77 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Ian told me he only does OBD1 TB, so if you are then your in luck Link to post Share on other sites
FishWick 21 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Yeah, OBD2 ones can't be reworked (other than removing the ramp) as they're sealed for life. OBD1 throttles can take the larger butterfly no problem. Link to post Share on other sites
Eat this 2 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 what does the ramp do and is it wise to grind it off? Link to post Share on other sites
