throttle boddies extra bhp anyone?

[muppet]

whats the extra bhp you get with individual throttle bodies for a 1.8 gti mk2 16v, my mates thinking of doing it but before he does i told him i would ask around and see what if any serious performance is made from the throttle bodies!?!?!

done right there is lots

roughly any idea of how much of a bhp gain there would be?

[danny_p]

none as don't know of anyone that's put itb's on a stock enigne.


with two exhaust cams  mid 180's  that's the most std engine.   the more tuned teh engine the bigger the gains,   also depends on the size of the itbs

If you want to know about Throttle bodies google a company called Badger 5 they are based in North West i think but make custom TB's for 16V mk2's. Sell them as complete kits or on their own. Theres a write up on the web site about what bhp's can be achieved when fitted.
