Has anyone removed their throttle body restrictor on their Z? I saw a post where KENZ mentioned it and I had never heard or seen it discussed here. I would like to know where exactly it is?? and what It looks like?

 

i think we determined that this was not worthwile, due to the angle at which the air enters the TB.

 

yep... very pointless to remove, as the difference in airflow is so insignificant that you could probably connect a vacuum hose from your intake to the cockpit and blow into it to get larger power gains.

 

Now that's funny...I don't care who you are.

 

Whats even more funny is I can almost promise someone has tried this.....

 

Speaking from experience? j/k

 

anyone see the one with a civic on a dyno and the stuck a leaf blower on the throttle body and it got like 20 hp or something? i might try to find that link

 

yeah, i think it was posted up here, ima do a search.

edit: linky

 

Well I guess now all the NA guys know how to get the best bang for the buck horsepower upgrade. Head down to Sears and get yourself a leaf blower

 

the throttle body does open up a little more. on my car, i dont have an adjustable screw, but i do have a stopper. when i cut off the stopper, i see it move past the old mark.

i dont have a pic of the exact location, but its right under the front part of the throttle cable cover.

 

are you guys talkin about this?
