TVR_3000MTURBO - 29/6/05 at 10:48 AM

Hi all, I am currantly building a luego velocity using the 1.6 ford sigma engine with cams, Im hoping for 170bhp+ with an emerald ecu but need to no what throttle bodies to use. GSX1000/1100/r1/r6

ect. Does anyone have any sudjestions, Also has anyone completed the convertion because i have heard that the return angle of the butterfly is greater than car Throttle bodies and can cause poor idle,

Thanks Guys

GSXR 750 and 1000 bodies should be fine. 600s may also work well (they're a bit smaller.

No problems with idle on my car.

what size engine are you running, Did you get it set up by Dave Walker. What BHP is she running at.

2 litre blacktop zetec.

Not setup by Dave Walker. In fact, not setup properly at all yet - still getting the gremlins out of the machinery before I map it properly
