Really BBTB
I found a really big throttle body (68mm) for my elantra, and was about to purchase when i decided i should talk to someone who really knows these vehicles. So with that, i wrote to Brendan, and he said
QUOTE
anything over 58mm is useless because the MAFS bottle necks at 58mm.
Does anyone know of any correction to this problem? If not I'll just get the 62mm.
