Default throttle body size

anybody have a good suggestion on 00 ex civic throttle body size. i was gonna get the 70mm because its the biggest and would get the most air in but a friend said that might over do it. just wanted to get some opinions.

you wouldnt gain much from a 70mm t/b w/ ur mods if anything you would lose some air velocity and in turn some low end torque, but up top there would be some gains

i would'nt worry about the tb right now, if you wanna spend the money.. at your point, look into the tranny. So many people think a clutch/flywheel won't add power. Makes a world of diffrence.

i would do tranny + weight reduction... save the throttlebody for when you have a turbo or atleast a cam/headwork that would need the extra volicty

clutch and flywheel is not only a performance mod, but a drivers mod because it changes the way your car feels so much.

if you do decide to do the clutch/flywheel i would suggest throwing a short shifter on if you don't already have one. very nice upgrade also
