wuts up everybody....so i have alphawerk header,injen cai,and driver fx drag race exhaust and i want to buy the aplhawerk 60mm throttle body i was just wondering if anyone has installed or knows any gains or any info on it.....thanks everyone for your help...[/i]

 

never heard of it

I dont of anyone to buy it yet, but the gains are very minimul. If all you have done is I/H/E then i would wait for a couple more mods before adding this. This TB Should only net about 3-4 hp with your current mods. Next I Would probably get your head P&P or order the ZPI head and cobine all that with an emanage, and then try and work on your ignition, then the TB. If you do get it now, hopefully youll keep all of us informed on to what the power gains feel like and how hard the install was.

 

this might sound stupid but where can i find the zpi head i tried going on zpi.com but it didnt work do you know the website..

You should notice some nice gains across the entire power band. It may only be 5hp or tq but it will definately be there. Like Whocares05050 said it is definately a combination mod and would definately be noticed with a p&p head.

 

the throttle body add-on was intended for FI people. i doubt u would see much gains with an IHE setup

 

I had a civic that I had a i/h/e on then I bolted on a tb and it made a hugh diffrence. This is a bigger engine it will definately help. The Integra type r comes with 62 or 65 stock I can't remember. The stock civics have 55mm. I put a 62mm on the civic I had and I could chirp third after it.

 

Where are the dyno results that shows increases for the P&P head?

A larger throttle body will definatly be a better mod for a FI setup. On a stock setup, you can actually lose HP if you go to big. Its possible to increase flow, and lose velocity creating a HP loss.

I dont know were the dyno for it is, but this is from ZPI's website:

" The ZPIracing stage 1 cylinder head is for the serious enthusiast. With larger port matched intake manifold ports this head provide a 38% increase in flow over the stock head. This package has netted 21whp with the stock air filter in stock cat back in place. This system will make the car run overly rich and more power can be found when used in conjunction with a piggyback fuel controller. "

Thanks. I'd like to see the dyno and flow sheets. I searched but didn't find them anywhere??? Anyone???

 

Are you laughing because you you do not believe ZPI or what?

 

Mostly, but Im sure the dyno graphs and the flow sheets that they got these numbers from would shut me up. Of course, thats only if they exhist.

their I/H/E with TB claims 23 WHP and 19 ft-lb of Torque all together. but with TB added it only gained 1hp and 1tq...


im pretty sure you will throw a CEL with that TB too... so i think you would be wasting your money on that crap anyay...unless you get FI...

 

...Didnt MMW's Header clam 24 hp by itself

 

maybe i'm thinking of someone else but don't you work for ZPI? couldn't you just look for them?

 

No, I WORKED for ZPI. Unfortunatly for some, I am no longer with the company.
