flusted 0 Posted February 25, 2006 Im sure some of you are aware of a chap named ian who can modify vr6 throttlebodys by machining and fitting a larger butterfly. Ive just had a 16v 1 done by him and the work is amazing! I sent him my spare tb,he bored it out then fitted a 3mm larger second butterfly. He had it done and returned to me in just a few days 8) Since ive had it back,ive match poted the 2 halfs together,shaved the spindle down in the small butterfly and fitted counter-sunk screws. When i flowed the front half,i took into consideration that the air doesnt hit the tb straight on on a 16v,so i shaped the divider for this and knife edged the divider between the ports. Its not completly finished yet as i need to fit shorter screws in the second port and polish the whole thing but heres the pics so far Ian can offer a similar service for £120,this gets you your tb machined out and the larger butterfly his emal is mailto:[email protected] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged 2 Posted February 25, 2006 He's not done a G60 one yet as he's not got one so if anyone has a spare he would like to buy one to start off doing some exchanges.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
