Re: considering an overbore throttle body for jrsc (morepoop4u)
Your setup is well tuned, so you may see gains from it.
Personally, I did not see any gains from a larger throttle body on my car. (2000 Civic Si, JRSC @ 6 psi). I had a 64mm throttle body that RC Engineering had bored out for me. Since I saw no gains, I sold it and put that money towards a Hondata. I literally swapped them in/out while I was at the dyno and the curves were 99% identical...peak power was the same.
The larger TB did increase throttle response, but it's not worth the price tag IMO.

I say don't waste your money. **** like that doesn't seem reasonable to me when you can always just up the boost a bit.
Your money is better spent elsewhere (or saved...)
