Default Anyone have a BBK 70mm throttle body on their lude?

I believe that the BBK 70mm does not have any cooling lines on them like the stock TB. Just wondering if anyone had prolems with the idle? I'm in Cali, so it's not too bad. Gets to about 40* F in the winter on a cold day.

Which BBK throttle body would be the one to use on a Prelude?
This is from their website:

1546 - 62mm Honda Performance Throttle Body 1.5/1.6L
1547 - 70mm Honda/Acura Performance Throttle Body 1.8L/1.6L
1752 - 70mm Integra GSR Dual-Cam VTEC Throttle Body
1753 - 70mm 1996-2001 Integra Type-R Throttle Body

I heard the JDM Type S throttle bodies work pretty well... and they're specifically made to fit the prelude intake manifold, not to mention made by Honda, so you know they have that honda fit and finish. If you're looking to spend a little more money, TWM makes more expensive throttle obdies for preludes, but i haven't heard anything about them.

JDM Type S, I'm sure it's nowhere close to 70mm. TWM are individual throttle bodies, and that is not what I'm looking for.

since the pn 1547 looks like it will fit a wider range of motors that would be my guess.....the coolant lines are for the thermo boost valve....which you can definitely do without in cali.....so go for it

the type s is only 64mm i believe....
