What's the skinny?

Looking for info on a larger throttle body. Would this change the sound of my car and would I have to get another intake or just a larger cupling (is that how you spell it)?

I am on the hunt for one as well....and it will sound more aggressive and it will suck more air into the engine which is always a good thing !!

I am doing some research and I'm trying to find a 93 Ford Mustang throttle body to see if it will fit
on my Civic. As far as the intake question, you may need to get another intake tube or peice of one,
or see if a larger cuplink (sp?) would work.

I guess you could take a stock throttle body, cut off the intake fitting, bore out a bigger hole, weld on a wider intake fitting, and custom fabricate a larger throttle plate. I wonder if the stock throttle body would allow for this? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]
