Well, I just purchased my Turbo XS type S BOV. As soon as Terry gets a kit for our cars, or somethin else comes along, it will get installed.

Also gettin my Greddy Turbo timer installed this weekend...Wo0t.....along with my A/F gauge and Boost Gauge.

My question is this, does anyone know where to get the JDM intake manifold, and T/B for our cars ? IIRC they are a bigger bore then the Us versions, and thus give a better flow to the combustion chambers. (yeah ino I can port match ours, but the JDM is worth a few more points at a show.)

Tanks,

I assume you mean the intake off of the FS-ZE? Corksport. You'll have to do some modifications to your current intake manifold set-up as the FS-ZE intake has no privisions of the VTCS.

Which throttle body are you reffering to? There are after-market throttlebodies available from Auto EXE I believe. If that is who has them the only to get that I believe is from Rishie at Auto R&D...I'm not sure what the sizing is. I think it is supposed to 60mm, as opposed to the stock 55mm.

I have heard (but not seen proof of) that OPM sells both 60mm and 65 mm throttle bodies for the Protege that will mount to the stock intake manifold. That might be a cheaper option to the Auto EXE parts because of exchange rates and shipping.
 
thanks all,

My MSP is up for some sponsorship already (just local stuff here in Pittsburgh) but as I add my bolt ons, Ill be looking for national sponsors :D Ohhh and how they love thier products on your car, and your car to be hot ( and a spicy speed gets ALOT of looks)
