MX5 Bike Throttle bodies

Hi all,

This may be a silly question but it shall be asked none the less.

I'm thinking of fitting bike throttle bodies (not carbs) to my MX5 engine, I know power gains aren't major but sounds awesome! Can this be done with manufacturer ecu?? It's a 1997 mk1 1.8

Any help/advice would be much appreciated

You may get it to work but you would have to retain the MAF which would pretty much kill any power gains and leave it sounding the same.

Cheers Mark, in that case I shall save up my pennies and get a megasquirt ecu.
