How much for the crank pulley?

 

[volcomstone_1223]

I had the 76mm, helped throttle response when I was n/a with a custom intake I had that was 3" and mounted perfectly to the 76 (no reducers), eBay 4.7 throttle body, I picked mine up for like 40 bucks, the larger valve helps

The throttle plate bocks part of the flow even when wide open. So having it larger than the manifold makes some sense.

I want to give him a chance to say yes or no, then I'll let you know.

Nah I just bought one like three days ago but thanks

There's the throttle body spacer delete mod.

What are you talking about? Why would you remove the throttle body spacer it actually gives you more torque which is great when you have cat less exchaut.

Lol, who told you that?

Throttle body spacer is useless. Intake manifold spacer on the other hand has been said to show some gains.

If the spacer is downstream of the throttlebody, the principle is the same.

Porsche VairoRam is a good example of extending the length after the throttle body to a shared section (individual intake runners remain constant) can increase low end. The only extra the Germans do is add additional valves to shorten it when the RPMs start to climb.

They do nothing for fuel injected vehicles. If you ditch it your coolness will go back up to a decent level.

A throttle body spacer is a spacer that is a chunk of metal that is installed just after the throttle body. The idea is to "straighten" or "swirl" the air so that it mixes with the fuel better. The problem there is that the fuel is mixed behind the intake valve(s) so any swirling or straightening is gone by them.

The Porsche VarioRam you are taking about is variable length intake runners not a throttle body spacer.

 

[Phracker]

The whole mixing fuel for multi-point fuel injection is no better than electric superchargers or magnets on your fuel lines (anybody remember that gimmick?).

Sorry, should have been more clear in my post. My thoughts were that by installing a spacer you are changing the length on your intake system from the point of the throttle body to the cylinder head. The increased length length should result in better low end torque.



VarioRam was the example I used because it shows that a single throttle body design intake system sees the benefits of increasing the intake’s overall length.

 

[justin13703]

The increased volume or length from a throttle body spacer is so minor that it does essentially nothing. And the whole "vortex" effect that they market these with stopped doing anything after carbureted engines went away.

I have beach front property in AZ for sale.

 

[XTINCT_yota]

I sent you a PM.

[30Birdy]

So if I bolt 10 of this spacers together, that is at least 100 LBS TQ increase, right?

Oh yeah and I call dibs on that beach front property:rofl:

Would you take the salvage rights for the Eiffel tower in trade?

Gonna have to take you up on that offer.

Oh god this got off track real quick :hmmmm2:
