took off the over bored tb

[1lowDSM]

wow what a diff that thing makes i have crazy top end now? and actually the car feels faster....but the response is no there...duh just my htoughts

[Stanislav94]

Thats weird, shouldn't it be power and responce all over the place.

[MrBlunt]

is this the same one you thought made you get torque steer??? that bored tb is either open or shut, thats the kinda response you get..i have the same one...its crazy...but it shouldnt feel any faster whenyour not getting as much air in there...hows teh vr4 coming?? yours yet??

[1lowDSM]

the thing that gave me the tourqe steer was the udp not the overbored TB i have had that thing for a year or so now... i dont get it either no go on the VR4 as far as i know Dan sold it :( long story i will tell yha bout that when i see yah again.. the car feels so solid now its crazy..i just dont get it

[e-eclipse]

yeah i know im late as hell with this...but i didnt get it.....ur sayin with the bored TB that u had more power but no top end........i thought that it was sposed to give it to u better all the way around.....top end and the torque as well.......i was thinkin bout just gettin mine bored over to like 57-58mm one of those and just wanted to know if it is a waste.......also i hear that if u aint doin enough to burn that xtra then it will def. hurt ya......just lemme know what u think u have experience with it..thanks

well more air is never a bad thing, the drivability factor goes down a little b/c of its response, its either open or shut, no in between...i don't really have an explaination for why he lost top end w/ taking it off, i would think w/ the added air he would gain but i've been wrong, just can't explain why..my extra air is being forced in there so i think its helping in my situation but maybe n/a there isnt to much of a gain

ok....but was the bored TB good or a bad thing...i've always heard of it being a good thing for the add power but if he took it off then maybe somethin was wrong...idunno but the whole ??? is was it better with or without????

[1lowDSM]

It kicks ass I love it but I hate the way my car drives with it... mabey its just weird.. mabey its just me i dunno.. but if you dont care about your car sticking at certian RPMs when you already let off the gas then get one.. I just use mine on race days

[e-eclipse]

im gonna debate on it for a while cause i got a guy that does bore ish and i think im just gonna use the OEM tb and get it bored over to 57-58mm....i think that would be easier because i heard bout all that ish with the jeep TB and aint no way im gonna try that...but did u use ur OEM TB or the jeep mod......if u used ur OEM how far over did u go or if u know lemme know....thanks.....

100 bucks takes a couple of days to get but if your local i can let you try it out for a day to see if you like it.

[MrBlunt]

i may be getting rid of my tb...its the howell bored unit, i got off of jay when his car...well, when he decided to get rid of it...if your looking for a bored tb i may just give you mine, we could just trade and maybe involve a little dough...you looking to get one any time soon??

[e-eclipse]

hell yeah...i really want one bad...what do u want or how much for it.....i need to know if i need to do anything to my car too like with the TPS or any of that ish cause i know that the 60mm that comes off the jeep u have to make adjustments to some things and that i complicated with that one....but if u want one or just want some money i have to tell ya that i dont have that much right now cause my boss cut back my hrs at work adn i make min/wage so....go figure lol...i really want this though so if u can make a deal with me that dont include swappin out mine for that one i can of i can get u one from a yard....or just give u some money for it latta just lemme know how much and if u can hold this for me as long ass u can or till i get the money causei really want this ish..lol thanks man
