Tuning throttle body

[chris106]

Does anybody no the size of the 1.6 throttle body inlet or butterfly?
And does anyone no if its possible 2 change the electronic throttle to a cable?

Cheers Chris

Not a chance
It would be like trying to make an Airbus fly by cables
Technology has moved on a lot since then

.........but then Airbus had a couple of failures...........

Haha ok wel what about these sprint boosters? Ive had my car remapped but the actual throttle response is slow from when you put your foot down...

It sends false info causing the throttle to be opened wider than normal at a given accelerator position.

No power increase
No faster 0 - 60

Just causes the throttle to open before it should.

Could do the same thing by glueing a match box to your accelerator causing the accelerator to be pressed further than your foot.

Early 1.6 multipla use a throttle cable on the T/B but on the stilo its fly by wire[basically same engine ]..the job would be massive IMHO and you would probably have to change the peddle box over as well and hope that the brake and clutch systems on the stilo matched the pedal box from the multi..the ecu on the stilo also has programing for the fly by and changing things over could land you with more problems than just correcting faults and problems..

Mulipla T/B and cable set up..
