Throttle body

[MyDianaZ06]

If going aftermarket for a bigger TB you are sure in hell going to kill you gas milage...

Kind of makes sense. Bigger throttle body means more air into the motor which in turns means more fuel as well. Therefore decreasing your mpg. Just my opinion.

^ if that was true intakes would kill ur gas milage. so its not true the guy who said that is a dumbass.

This is only true if the engine was properly tuned to compliment the larger throttle body and the leaner condition that allowing more air into the engine via a larger throttle body would cause.

Listen, I clearly stated "aftermarket throttle body" not "stock throttle body", aftermarket is bigger, which you will get more air velocity causing more fuel, I've experienced it and that is why I will never go back to large aftermarket throttle body again, If you don't believe me then try and you will experience it.

turbo90accord is also right.

i have a 68mm tb. didnt lose any gas milage. if ur theroy about "less airflow" giving better gas milage was true then driving with a clogged air filter would save u gas millage. maybe u had a small vaccum leak or something i could see that killing ur milage. or didnt calibrate ur tps senor right. but saying its cause of air flow is wrong.

Funny, when I went from an F22A4 IM to an H23 IM/TB, my gas mileage went UP. I guess all the extra air flow just decided to turn around and walk out of the intake manifold.

ha. funny the guy who is saying u lose gas milage is also the guy u quoted in ur sig. hes wrong about other car companies not using varible valve timing as well. in toyotas its called vvti, im pretty sure nissan uses it to. what a dumb-ass. to the op dont listen to pedroalcala he obviously has no idea what he is talking about. do the h23 im/tb like pirate said and ull be happy.

This is not honda-tech, I clearly stated on stock intake manifold with aftermarket TB, I certainly did not talk about and did even mention anything about filters, cleary your're thinking out of your ass of what I said.
I my self have an h23 IM with h22 TB, your fucking comparing an f22a with a big ass TB , please if you think that my theory is incorrect or my information said to the OP is "a dumbass response" go ahead and try it your self, I did this with stock IM and aftermarket TB....if you think your a "honda tech" and are agreeing with "foamypirate" then GTFO.

Just take off the a6 plenum and put the h23 plenum with stock h23 or h22 TB.

I said TB, not IM.

[foamypirate]

I said TB, not IM.

And I said H23 IM AND THROTTLE BODY. Learn to read.

and I said "aftermarket THROTTLE BODY" guess you did read what I stated.

I did read. Aftermarket is a VERY vague term. I could, say, go purchase a PROPERLY sized ~64-68mm throttle body, and get gains. Or I could be a moron and purchase a huge ass 72mm throttle body, and lose a shit ton of low end torque and drop gas mileage. Your argument holds no water either way.
