Use Babel Fish to translate it.

But the thing about a larger throttle body is that its useless unless you can find a way of opening up the intake manifold with it.

Heh, isnt our intake manifold plastic? :D I'd say take a dremel to it and "open up" your manifold by yourself. But really... I dont think you would need a bigger intake manifold to have a bigger throttle body.

the bigger throttle body is more effective with the larger manifold. A complete exhaust would help squeeze the most power out of the mods.

Does this come with a gasket? And is there another intake manifold that goes with this throttle body?

I dunno and I dunno to your second question


I just happened to come acrossed it and thought I would post it....I usually find this type of stuff on the website that shows all the manufacturers and tunershops in Japan and US....places we have never even heard of

Larger throttle bodies were discussed earlier. Apparently there is not enough material around the throttle body mounting to allow opening it up, a larger throttle body will bolt up but there will be a vacume leak.

Someone was thinking about making an aftermarket manifold but no progress yet.
