bigger throttle body
i cant believe people would spend $ on a bigger throttle body. think about it.
lets just say your throttle body is 4 inches in circumference and now you make it 5 inches. sure it might sound like you have 1 inch bigger which alows more flow. but what about when you connect it onto the intake manufold? dont you have to hone that out to make it match???

i had a 1992 honda civic 4 door with a 1996 GSR motor which i bought a throttle body and also port and polished the intake manifold and guess what?? i didnt notice jack. just because you produce more air flow doesnt necessarily mean its better, it was a waste of $ for sure which i have learned my lesson in. once thing i have noticed and definitely believe, its hard to produce much more HP on our s2000 NA.
i mean C'mon 120 per litre, how much more do you want ?
SC/TURBO/NOS maybe VAFC anything else is BS and just a marketing gimmic to make $ like an exhaust for example. sure its lighter than a stock exahust, sounds louder but produces lets say 2 HP more. wooopeee for a whopping $500-1000 dollars. why do you see so many people on here selling exhaust and headers?? because they too know they made a big mistake and if you see most of the people decided on going with a SC instead. if i wanted noise, i can just go and buy a ultra flow or a borla and weld it on.
take a look at baxdatass, $1700 and 3 hp gain. even if he gained 10hp, do you think he is a happy camper right now??
i just want it to be known that you should never listen to marketing gimmics. they are out to make $ and suckers will get ripped off. this is just my .02
