I have been looking for a spacer for a while for my H23. (to all you people who will put me down about this idea... you are wrong) I have personally witnessed a throttle body spacer at work. Not saying it gains you 100 hp, but I like them because from what I have experienced they do help you in lower rpms and helps you climb rpms smoother. Anyways I have been looking for quite some time now and found one on ebay for like 90 bucks from over seas.... I just really don't feel like waiting forever for one. So I found one that K-tuned makes[URL="http://http://k-tuned.3dcartstores.com/RBC-RRC-Dual-Throttlebody-Adapter-6270mm-both-sizes_p_165.html"] Now the question I have is does it fit a H23 intake manifold?

 

My .02, most of the "gain" felt by installing one of these probably comes from cleaning up the TB and adjusting it all propaerly when doing the install, more than the part itself.

It may give you a miniscule volume increase, but if you really feel like spending the money, go for it. Might as well get a larger TB if you want to spend money in that area though, and match the size of the intake inlet port to it at that time.

 

I have a skunk 2 70mm throttle body and i shaved the inside of my intake manifold to match the 70mm throttle body.... All i want to know is does the spacific part i want fit an oem h series intake manifold

 

Ah I see.

From what I can see, that is an adapter for the K series manifolds/ throttle bodies. You need one designed for the B/D/F/H series of throttle boddies and intakes.

 

Why not just make one out of aluminum for $5?

 

I dont have the tools or equipment to make a throttle body spacer. I could if I had the tools and resources to do it. and thanks snobordboy i appreciate the help im newer to the Honda world and i know most engine components can be swapped so thats why i asked.

 

i guess my main question is, is there any other throttle bodies that can fit an h series intake manifold? if that is so then i can use a spacer designed for "that series" engine. cause if the throttle body fits then the spacer should fit.

 

As I said in my last post, all B/D/F/H use the same bolt pattern. It is a Honda specific pattern, but there should be options out there.

If you don't find them, it is due to the fact that Honda owners don't buy a product like that enough to warrant making it.

The one product that more people do use is thermal gaskets, just thick gaskets to stop heat transfer from the intake manifold to the TB, usually made of a white teflon type material. If using that, you should also delete the fitv lines, or you are defeating the purpose of the gasket.
