S13 240SX throttle body on a 1.6
3 Attachment(s)
I met a guy at a meet last week who is making 300hp running a 1.6 engine at 23psi.
He's using the throttle body from an S13 Silvia. He said that the top bolts line up perfectly with the NA6 plenum and just require new holes drilled at the bottom. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1459104809 He couldn't remember if it was off the SR20DET or the SR20DE and thought there was a difference in size between the NA and the turbo engine's TB. He also ended up using the IACV from an RB26 since the SR20 TB is a different setup. Anyone done this mod? I couldn't find anything searching online... https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1459104809 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1459104809 If you're interested in the car here's his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwh...UHL0VYMCxQ6ywA |
never heard of it. looks like he had to remove mount the IAC vavle.

I'm interested to know if anyone has done it and if it was worth it. |
why in the world would you want a bigger tb that doesn't fit?
you're gonna need to provide a proper thought process here, so far you sound really stupid, and this sounds like a dumb idea. we've made 360whp on a stock 1.6 miata throttle body. at 21psi (if that even matters). why do you need bigger? you should do something useful, like replace that crappy engine with a 1.8 rather than wasting time/money replacing something that's not broken and not a restriction |

The 1.8 is something I'm considering for my own car but there's plenty to read about that without making a new thread! Lol |
the gains are laughable too.
see my recent thread about testing a skunk2 tb, which is much better than the junk that guy is using ......after all was said and done, we gained 1hp one |
he didnt make any of the power from the TB. that was an overly complicated and pointless mod.
a 1.6L should be able to make 300rwhp at around 18-20psi. |
if you look at the rest of the craptastic setup, it makes sense
|
The boost solenoid plumbing looks interesting.
|
This looks interesting at least. I have a friend with a spare one laying around, going to look into it. It appears to be 60-65mm in diameter, which is at least worth the inquiry, IMO.
