New Intake Setup

Hi guys!

For the last 2 months, i have been thinking of changing my intake setup.After a bit of research and guidance from my mechanic, i choose to go for Mugen air-box setup which is originally made for Honda's engine.

Haven't dyno the engine so i can't share with you guys any increments (perhaps :p) figure.

So far.... i'm happy with the setup 😁

And yeah, i also relocate my battery at the back in order to give a bit more space in the bay for the intake setup. My engine bay look quite neat after the battery relocation.

Super90 Oversized Throttle Body Upgrade

Hi guys.

Yesterday i just changed my standard throttle body to super90 oversized throttle body for my MIVEC. The size is 70mm, which is 10mm more than the standard throttle body. I made up my mind to go for super90 throttle body because of its quality. Other than that, i've already tested it on my previous 4g93 non MIVEC setup and all i can say it is worth the price.

Some of the pictures during the throttle body installation....



the superhero - super90 billet throttle body


need to take out the intake and then port and match it with the size of the new throttle body which is 70mm. This process is very important ; if the intake is not port and match then you wont feel any increments from this throttle body upgrade.

the installation was quite plug and play. i think i took more pictures of the process but i dont know where all of them gone!

voila!

After that, my mechanic checked the air fuel ratio by innovate wideband kit. This is very important because we can know the air fuel mixture. If it is too lean then it will be dangerous for the engine and if it too rich it will reduce the engine performance and the engine will become fuel guzzler. So, with this kit, my mechanic tuned the engine to the correct air fuel mixture.

The outcomes? YES! the throttle body upgrade and tuning do wonders. I can really feel the increments. I'm so happy since once again the money that i spent is worth it after all. So, i would like to recommend this upgrade for those who already planned to upgrade the throttle body. BUT, i would like to stress that bigger doesn't necessarily means better. Consult your mechanic first whether the throttle body upgrade is suitable for your engine setup :)

Regards.

New Intake & Throttle Body Setup


Heyya!
Just took the car yesterday and as promised, here are some of the picture of the new setup.






As you can see from the picture, the coil pack is now on the rocker cover. At first i didn't like it but after hours later, i think i can live with it =p. Well, enough for the cosmetic =p. Lets talk about the engine improvements. So far after test drive, i can really say that the engine pull harder, better and lighter at all rpm and it becomes sweeter after the rpm meter past 4500 rpm till redline! This is absolutely better than my previous setup ( 4g93T intake + 60 mm throttle body). No kidding! I'm so happy with it and the money i've spent after-all is worth it! Thumbs up! So once again, my mission accomplished. Wait for another project guys!

regards.

Intake and Throttle Body V2

Konniciwa!
Just a quick update. i went to see how the intake and throttle body look like after the modifications. I can see that there are still some adjustment to make before the intake can really fit with the cylinder head. So far, all i can say that the job is nicely done by the mechanic. I'm really happy with it. Some pictures for appetizer below :D




Hopefully i will get it installed by tomorrow. Stay tuned readers!

New Oversized Throttle Body

Hi guys.

Sorry for not updating this blog because I'm quite busy nowadays. Still remember about my project which is to hybrid the Honda's intake to Mitsu's engine? Well, yeah. The intake is now finished. The only problem is i haven't install it in the engine yet =p. Last week and this week, I'm very busy with my schedule and other than that, i hold my plan to install the intake because I'm waiting for my new oversized throttle body. Just received it yesterday after a week of waiting. I chose to buy new billet throttle body from Super90. The size varies from 65 mm to 80 mm. If I'm not mistaken, 100 mm also available but i think i need to check back from their website. Well for my setup, 70 mm is more than enough. Bigger than that, it is overkill for 4g93. Btw, pictures below.








I planned to install it together with the Honda's intake since it will be much more cost effective =p. Doesn't have to pay twice for workmanship =D. So what's the use of the oversized throttle body? Well, from others experience, and from the info that i collected from the net, it can improve throttle response, gives better acceleration and more high end output. But please bare in mind that bigger is not necessarily better. It depends on the engine specification too. For those running on big overlapped cams/turbocharged or supercharged, this will be a supporting modification to help the engine sucks more air into the combustion chamber for better power. Just a simple explanation from what i know. Maybe you can have a better idea if you search more info bout the pros and cons of the oversized throttle body from the net.

Till then see u in the next post!
