Throttle Body swap

I didnt realize that was the sensor

Berger · 02-07-2008, 09:20 PM

next question is how would the pcm react to the new tb

SyntheticShield · 02-07-2008, 09:28 PM

Generally speaking, that large of a TB is going to require some tuning via the PCM. How much you can get away with and what any ill effects there would be Im not sure. I would say that that much more air would have you running incredibly rich and being too rich can be just as problematic as too lean.

Which 3.1 do you have? Is the 8th vin digit t or m> If the digit is an m then the throttle body is made into the intake like the 3.4 dohc vin x engine is but. On the vin t 3.1 engine the part of the tb were u connect theair duct to it oval but the uim said is round.

the 8th is a J

Berger · 02-08-2008, 12:32 AM

so are you saying I might be able to use a tb from a 3.4? BTW I should have mentioned this earlier but I have a 2003 GP

yeah it definitely has an oval intake thinger mer bobber... the MAF is also seperate. we got the shaft on that.. it sucks if you want a sweet intake because it kinda looks ****ty with the MAF

I just went ahead and made a FWI from the end of the MAF yesterday. it looks decent but sounds awsome at WOT.
