There are the many aftermarket TB's
spoon
erick's racing
jg
....there are a few more
The ls, si, & gsr are all 60mm units and the ITR is 62mm (correct me if i'm wrong here). I have a stock B16 that i bought from someone else that i never used if you're interested. I've got pics also. HTH.

all b TBs are the same size except the itr. whether or not you will see a gain
is anybody's guess, but i would say little to none.

 

Id say its pretty pointless to get a larger throttlebody unless you have already changed out your cams, and maybe gotten a PNP or aftermarket intake manifold, all of with can take better advantage of the increased airflow of a larger TB. Otherwise I wouldnt expect much if any improvement over the stock TB(like sgt said).

 

Actually this post is just a disguise for my real question. I have a del sol and my TB is shot.. i can't get anyone in the Civic Forum to give me a straight answer on what TB's i can relplace mine w/ because god knows that del sol DOHC TB's are hard to come by. If you have one please email me, skunk2sol@hotmail.com

 

Just get the ITR TB.

 

ALL B series TB's are the same EXCEPT the R

what is wrong with your TB anyway ? fast idle thermo switch ? how did you arriva at the conclusion that yours IS bad ?

 

Tried to grind some of it out to make it bigger which someone told me would be ok.. but then i found out that it definatly is not OK. I also removed my TPS as to not damage it, but I think i did in the process. I am sick of messing w/ it to make it idle right, so i just want to buy a new del sol TB.

My car is for sale and i found a buyer "if i get the idle fixed" so im in a bit of a prediciment.

 

ok , well all the B series are the same size so you should be able to find one pretty easy

 

yeah, but everyone thinks they are worth 125 bucks. maybe they are, but that seems damn expensive, plus i need it shipped fast as possible so thats an extra 35 or so for me... i guess thats what i get for F'ing w/ mine.
