probly stupid question but just wanted to know.

.nate

I believe it will... Im not 100% sure so someone *SHOULD* back me on this.

cjames235

ok well ill just try it and see. its not like i have to take the whole engine apart.

.nate

youre in cordova? I may of seen you around then.. got a pic of your car?

RR98DX

yep it bolts on and plugs in just fine, you will be surprised how much bigger the LS TB is over the D16s...they are cheap too.

v-tec crx

what year ls will work? thanks

cjames235

no i dont have pics yet. the software turned up missing for my digital camera so i have to buy it again. i have seen your car once before about a week ago. mine got backed into by an expedition so i havent driven it in a while. its fixed now though just not painted yet. the tb i have is off a 95 ls. will it still work even though my car is obdII? i just dont know if they added more sensors or something to it. what kind of gains am i looking out of this tb?

.nate

My Car? A week ago? Uuum you would of had to of driven by my house or something.. its been sitting in the street since thanksgiving awaiting a swap...

Hey Cjames do i know you? I live in memphis, my name's brad. I drive the Black Civic with TE-37s. Drop me an email. Brad@MidsouthRaves.org - L8s

cjames235

oh ok must have been someone else. no brad ive never seen you, but ive heard about you. my car is a dark green just like harold's with black circuit 8's. i might put the tb on today if my exhaust comes in.

.nate

Arent you always over at Scott's house? If so Im right down the street

cjames235

got the tb on yesterday. i can tell a pretty good difference over stock. it feels stronger on the low end. i would recomend this to anyone if you can get it for pretty cheap. i got mine for free, so thats free power for me free stuff is awsome

wizzards581

wow.... does it???

b18a or b18b's..???

is this for any D16?
would it help out and fit on a D16Y8? (98 civic ex)

AudioXtremes

i did this on my d16a6 buti had to drill the holes out a bit.

RR98DX

when i put my 96 LS TB on my 95 Si it made a large difference.

How can slapping on a larger TB make a large difference....the flow still bottlenecks at the IM port because it has a smaller cross sectional area than does the TB. You would need to port match the Intake Manifold and use the LS gasket in order to get the full effect.

tFUnK

Cjames235 what year ls did u take the TB from? i found one from a 92 ls dunno if it'll fit/do me too much good...

tFUnK

madtownhonda can u tell me how much difference it will make then? cuz i found a 92 ls tb and im considering putting it on my 00 d16y8... or should i put something else like a newer ls or gsr or itr even?

cjames235

i got my tb from a 95 ls, so a 92 should be the same. i put it on my d16y8 and it fit perfectly, no drilling or anything. all the sensors plugged up and everything. the only difference is on the ls tb there is an extra vacuum line on the top that the civic doesnt have, so i just left it unconnected. i dont believe my im is bottlenecked, but im not sure ill check and if it is ill bore it out to match the size of the ls tb. i used the ls gasket too.

memphiss13

cjames235-so u want to race when it dries up outside. since i have the only non-vtec b16 in memphis.

theFLY- that is probably harolds green civic that you see over scott's house. chris doesn't know scott i don't think.

J T*

does anyone know the size of the opening on the ls throttle bodies.

I was just wonder how large it would be compare to like a "B&K" or other bored out throttle bodies.

Suprdave

60mm

RR98DX

its 61mm, and i did port match my IM with the TB when i did it. a dremil, a 6-pack and a hour of my time.

enjoy, it does help.
