Danpeal Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Yeah yeah buy a turbo.. , but would the big bore throttle body from volvo motorsports work on my 96 glt, is there a big difference between the turbo and NA throttle body? Any one sell a spacer? And what about ported intake manifold to go with the 62mm big bore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Che'_Moderator Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 The NA TB is a lot bigger than the turbo one. Boring it further makes a small difference. If you can get your TB bored for under 200 I say go for it. If not its not worth the skrilla IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danpeal Posted June 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Well so far I have install 2.5 inch exhaust with free flow cat, custom cold air intake, upgraded ground wire kit, procomp coil, kingsborne wires, sport chipped 02 sensor, voltage stabilizer ( had from another car that i never used so thought what the heck ), Very soon once it arrives procomp msd 6a style ignition, near future ecu tuning, and any other mods.

ViperVette Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 not worth the skrilla in my humble opinion+1.... Other things you can do to get HP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danpeal Posted June 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Had some idle issues and just kept on replacing till all was new, seemed like the right thing to do, and besides that almost all the part are blue and match the underhood look I am going for. Anyone know the mm of the 96 2.4l NA throttle body? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POOKDIZZLE Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 If the throttle body on a NA car is larger than a turbo model why can't you run a NA TB on a turbo car, will it not work??? Just seems if it would work it would definately be a cheaper alternative to the aftermarket one. Any info on whether this is a direct bolt on mod that will work w/o throwing any codes?

PorBleemo Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 The '96 850 GLT does not have a turbocharged engine, and all of the GLTs have the large throttle body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POOKDIZZLE Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 The '96 850 GLT does not have a turbocharged engine, and all of the GLTs have the large throttle body.So can this TB be run on a Turbo engine with no CEL and be a direct bolt on?????

And to answer your question they are too big for the turo cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POOKDIZZLE Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Why would a TB throw a code? And to answer your question they are too big for the turo cars.Really, so they are larger than the bored aftermarket ones for sale???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Che'_Moderator Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Really, so they are larger than the bored aftermarket ones for sale????Yes, by a lot. There are for a non forced induction engine. Before you ask the NAs also have bigger manifolds, and higher lift cams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POOKDIZZLE Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Yes, by a lot. There are for a non forced induction engine.
