r1 slides in throttle bodies?
Hi just completed my 2003 r1 turbo conversion, and made 235bhp at 9 psi. Tuned by pdq, which was great. The guy said the car was making the same power
at 80% throttle position as it did at 100% he recommended or thought the slides in the carbs was not fully opening as I have a pipe linking the
breathers out the top(don't no if they are breathers) so he recommended finding a way to keep them fully open permantly .does anyone have any
suggestion s on how to? Also a few other little tips he gave me was removing 90 degree silicone hose for a hard pipe 1 and putting a shround to my
intercooler
Kind regardd

I believe there's a kit to hold them open. "Graves slide stops" rings a bell.

Why did they have slides as standard? They are a strange crossover from the R1 carb to throttle bodies, I dont quite understand why a throttle body
needs a slide.....

Think they were there to tame the initial throttle response and reduce the number of riders being thrown off. later 5vy has secondary ECU controled
throttles that do the same.
