Does size really matter?
« on: December 26, 2007, 01:48:59 PM »

In throttle bodies that is.  I read, fairly often, that the '07 throttle body on a 110 is too small to make decent power, that the '08s have a larger one, and they "should have come that way from the start".  Everything else is pretty much the same, but I haven't seen anything saying the '08s make any more power.  I'm sure the factory would claim any additional they found, so at what point should one even consider changing, 100 hp, 120?

if hp is what you are after, and your buiild can make hp, then by all means go with large tb.
if you want drivability and early tq, and your build is mild, stick with stock.
