gsr throttle body will work fine. itr throttle body i believe will have to be gasket matched to the z6 intake.

as for the ls throttle body, do you have that on the z6 now? im not sure what your asking here

krysted9354

well what will be better on an all motor d16a6 with d16z6 head, an ls or gsr throttel body, ? and i have the d16z6 intake manifold ported and polished and the throttel body sidepolished out, so question which throttel body from which car works best ?

The gains from swapping the TB will be minimal/zero on an otherwise stock D16Z6. Trust me if the TB needed to have been bigger Honda would have made it that way. Unless you've got a honed out IM, bigger cam, and head work leave the TB alone.

yeah, i have a d16a6 with zc pistons, 0.20 ovebore, i have milled head, and port-n-polished head and IM, mugen header etc, like i said all motor sohc, street build, bisimoto head assembly...etc

so onmy d16z6 in which throttel body will work/fit best ?

dont do it....d-series stock throttle bodys are perfect. I have seen people loose power low and mid range with a bigger throttle body on a all motor d-series

krysted9354

^ Yup i heard that to, keep stock Z6 throttel body polish it out and thats best for all motor, so i will do that, they say gsr and itr bodies are good froa sohc on boost but not al motor, just trying to clerify,


ok thanks for help im keeping the z6

just wondering anybody swapped an integra tb on there civic ?

wrenchez81

doing it right now actually... on my 98 ej.... i port matched and polished my y8 manny to a gsr tb.... waitin on some more supplies so i can finish (dam snap on dealers )...

wrenchez81

excuse me sir.... but honda also factory tuned these things for fuel economy aswell as power...i would think letting more air in on a computer controlled electronic fuel injection system would tend to consume a little more fuel than usual the more air you let in... ive heard from several peopleincluding many i know that have done this swap and had great success....HOWEVER... i can only say this based on the y8 manny and NOT the z6... i would imagine the op can swap the mannis and swap the tegs tb and have a decent power to dollar gain....

krysted9354

yeah it wil be tuned but beofre i was just wondering if it makes sense, but yeah ill live with the ported and polished z6
