VQ Throttle Body Spacer Mod

[gto]

Yep, going without spacer. 1 o'clock.

At this moment, I'm busy, not sure I can trot down there, but if you plan to keep the spacer in, & I'm sure you will, make sure to tell him to tune that mod in with the data taken from my file. Your A/F will be off, but once you get the spacer on, you'll be where you want.

After reading this thread ,,makes you totally want one are they in mass production yet or for sale in limited numbers? Either way who would I pm to purchase one?

Also on the liking of cars with good flow, would running,headers, no cats,y-pipe and a Hypermax exhaust be to much flow?

During the beta-testing of this unit there were several slated for FX's ... you guys could have all been some of the first to have it. Unfortunately no one showed enough interest or took the like-it-buy-it, don't-like-it-return-it offer...
If there is enough interest here it might be a possibility to get a group buy going... If someone wants to take the lead and determine a definitive level of interest, I can check into getting a GB.

Is this the same thing as what Shady posted this morning?

Yep!

 

[OCG35]

Ok just sent payment to OCG35...hope to get one soon...I'm eager to find out "cool whizzing sound" that Dave is talking about. Yes...I do miss my Turbo sounds.

Payment was not made to OCG35 – the payment method is listed on Driver or through PM to/from me on Driver... I organized the G35 group buy and am helping facilitate the few leftovers (basically depleted now).

Min, are you going to the track with us on the 27th? and to the picnic this Sat?

You wanted to see how fast that 350z engine was so this would be a good chance to see it in action against other 35's.

No Sir...ㅠㅠ parents are coming...AGAIN...this Friday.

Ohh that's a good idea...I was going to make another trip to TS once TB Spacer is installed.
Thanks alot Dave!

Yep, going without spacer. 1 o'clock.

While I haven't tested the G's air-fuel ratio since installing the TBS, the existing TS reflash did indeed compensate for the TBS... in a good way.

OCG, bumbed I missed it the 1st time around, we're having a meet here in CHITOWN this weekend I will for sure ask around on intrest.I will get back to you but speaking for myself if one breaks free I would be a buyer 110%.


Thanks

PM jonnylaw on driver... he bought one but might not be able to use it do to the configuration of his after market intake (it's not a common one)... he lives in Chitown and you might be able to get his if he doesn’ t use it... in the mean time if you find that there is enough interest with the other members at your GTG get a list together and I'll see what I can do.

 

[jonnylaw]

Yes, I have one of the GB TB spacers in anodized blue, and due to my titan aftermarket intake tube I was unable to install it. Too bad, though cuz it looks great and I was eager to try it out.

Tkrtape3, PM me here or at driver if you would like to purchase the anodized blue TB spacer.

 

[Tkrtape3]

Thanks I'll PM you ...you should come out for our BBQ on Sat. @ 2pm.

Ok. TBS installed....noticible gain?...ah...hard to tell...might have added 3~4hp didn't notice difference in sound either...will drive around more at night if I can feel/hear the difference.

 

[gto]

How did the drive change from the tuning for you?

 

[LeBron23]

Oh Reflash makes a big difference. RPM rises smoother/faster, car definitely feels faster. Very very happy with it. I should post my Dyno sheet...just lazzzzzy L0L

So nothing?

 

[LeBron23]

FX feels definitely different after the Reflash, car accelrates faster/smoother. I will be going to TS on 30th to swap out my Pumpkin(Thanks Viet for selling his original pumpkin for dirt Cheap!!) then I will re-dyno to see if TBS made any difference in hp/tq.
I drove more today...car feels excellent but today in Valley hit 90 degrees...that's maybe the reason why I couldn't feel any noticible performance gain.

Will and I spoke to him at the Peterson Museum meet and he did not have anything for the 45..:frown:

So I just installed my custom intake. Are the VQ and VK throttle body's the same??? I ask because to my surprise, the throttle body is 3.00" not 3.50". It goes from 3.00" throttle body, to 3.5" MAF adapter tube.

So who wants to try and see if the bolts match up and the throttle body is the same=)

Here are pictures of the VK throttle body if this helps:
