Default ERICK'S Throttle Body

Has anyone heard of ERICK's throttle body or have one installed on their ITR? I recently purchased a 68mm to 66mm TB from ERICK's racing. We installed it last night and I can feel a big difference in the low end. The gas pedal is stiffer and the car feels torquer than with the stock ITR TB. Any thoughts on them ?

Sell it and get a civic dx throttlebody. I used to have the ericks tb but traded it for a civic DX tb. Mad torque on both the low and high end. The civic throttlebody provides a tapered vunturi effect so more air will be ram'd in at high rpms. Try that sheit, hella tiiite.

I just got an Erik's TB 70mm on my itr and it makes a huge difference. But i had to match port it to fit my supercharger. But it made a huge difference. Dyno before was 208 and after was 218. Not bad for just a throttle body.

Beware of perception. Big throttle bodies feel much more aggressive on throttle tip-in, but that is because 10% throttle on a big throttle body is like 15% or 20% on your original throttle body. It is an illusion.

Gotta dyno it to know for sure.

This sounds like one of the icy hot stunnaz.... I apologize for the ignorance shown here. Anyone who says "mad torque" or "hella tiite" is just plain gay..

OHM's are a measure of electrical resistance.

Nice TB, but I would've opted for the Spoon TB.

Is taking out the sensors easy? Do you just unscrew the two screw and it just pops off?

I was looking at Ericks T/B, and I didn't notice any piping for the coolant lines.
Where are they?
