nope, i called to check on my s-pipe. and talked to you about getting a turbo kit and the head package, and if you could do a custom tune with it. but unforunity i haven't been getting as many hours in a work and i ran into some unexpected expenses in the past month. so it looks like i won't be doing that for a while now

Going to big will definately make you lose power but who says 60mm is too big of a tb for a 2.4L doesn't know a lot about engines. Even a 62 mm would help. Because the tc has a bigger engine I would use a 65mm for forced inductions not a 60mm. Like I said before I had a honda civic. It was just a 1.5L non v-tec the stock tb was a 55mm like our cars. I had the i/h/e and then I used a larger tb 62mm there was significant gains. I gained 3/10 in a 1/4 mile with the tb after the other mods.

So.. Does anyone actually have this on? Any solid #'s posted? I am interested in getting one... I only have I/H/E, but I am curious to see if this is even worth the money.

Alphawerk's TB is a stock bored-out one with a larger butterfly. 60mm is the largest you can bore the stock TB. I remember they had issues since our TB's are electronically controlled and is an integral part of our VVT-i system. Something about the car idling bad or stalling or the like.
