Quad throttle bodies (also known as IRTBs) are similar to a turbo, in that you need the ECU, plus a decent exhaust. IRTBs are usually the last thing people change in their quest for NA power. Do a bit more research, and learn to walk before you run

I was only joking about the Quads, hence the "haha" after it. I don't have any thoughts on the changing them right now :)
And as for the silvia, I've been looking at the 13's - but the Miata just feels better. It's a miata or an AE86 :P

Cheers!

Sean Rocks - He's a humble genius :lol:

Seriously though, I haven't engineered a car in a while, so be conscious things may have changed.
When results speak for themselves - don't interrupt.
