Throttle body!

[theSOB]

so, i'm about to buy a h23 IM and it doesnt have the TB. Seller will give me a H22 TB for an extra $40. good deal or no? i haven't researched TBs much and dont know if it would be to my advantage to get an H23 TB instead bcuz of possible differences in sensors or hoses or anything. IDK! lol

Yea jump on it!!

[theSOB]

is it better than the h23 TB?

[shadowdlink]

I think its the same. Since the H23 and H22 share the same Intake manifold, except for their bolt patters on the runners.

I'm running an h22 on h23 mani. For me I did it because the h22 one was cheaper lol.

[theSOB]

ok. well then how bout size. some people say bigger is better; some say too big is bad. i'm in the process of an N/A build. i'm looking at 11.5:1 compression pistons. i have a 2.5" one piece CAI. And gunna run the full H23 manifold. do you guys have any sugestions for TB size? i'm lookin at maybe a skunk2 TB in the future and find a variety of sizes. Is there any other information that could help? Thanks

[F22HB]

You could go with the s2k tb as a nice upgrade. For your setup you'll be fine with just an h22 though.

Get the H22 (it's the same as the H23) and bore it out to 64mm-65mm.

Stock S2k is 62mm-63mm if I remember correctly... that and no idle adjustment screw.

I got an h22 TB with H23 manifold, check out my thread, they fit the same, and hell, $40 bucks aint bad, I got my TB about $45.....go for it!

[theSOB]

alright sounds like i've made my mind. thanks guys!

[theSOB]

so if i wanted to get a skunk2 TB later, would it hurt at all? i kno sometimes it can bee TOO big, but it seems like they only sell 68mm. i do like them tho

[deevergote]

Skunk2 TBs only fit Skunk2 manifolds, unless they've changed the way they make them.


And the H22 and H23 throttle bodies are identical.

Make sure it does not have the map sensor on it, and the hookup for the charcoal canister hose. That way it'll hook up real easy like OEM.

Stay away from the Skunk2 throttle bodies. I had a 68mm Skunk2 on my s2k and all I had were problems with it. It wasn't the best of quality IMO either.

And yeah, s2k throttle bodies are 63mm.

Thanks for confirming that.
