50mm throttle body
« on: 26 February 2012, 08:24 »
Ive been offered a 50mm throttle body for my 16v KR and was wondering if anybody had upgraded to a larger throttle body and the difference it made if any?,it's from an Audi with the kv engine and is a straight
Swap for the KR one,I've been told it will noticeably improve acceleration but would like your opinions or comments on this.

Cheers.

KR's are only good as they are tuned its like sticking a FMIC on a 1.6 driver or super charged 2.0l bored out block!
If you get the fuel to air ratio right plus get a remap done to take advantage then its worth it other wise its bigger, but so what?
