ok, so you think that new standard ones will make it better, and that there is no real advantage in getting uprated ones?

How much etc for throttle bodies?

Cheers!

You have to get it mapped with different size injectors and if you run a MAS you need to have that calibrated also.

I asked the same question once re a cossie, I was told that the ECU has to know otherwise you will run too rich (too much fuel).
