I saw no gains on a JRSC @ 6 psi on a B16A2. Stock vs 64mm RC Eng bored out throttle body. Curves were exactly the same. So, I sold the bored TB and started saving for Hondata.

Keep in mind that this with a low boost setup running an FMU. Gains would probably be there for a higher boost setup with good engine management.

if u upgrade your intake manifold then it is a good idea to upgrade throttle body... if your just doing throttle body then its not going to do anything...
