I am considering starting to sell overbored throttle bodies. If you are interested in one and think I should do it, tell me how much you would be willing to pay so I can see if I should do it or not.

I paid 15 bucks for a b16 throttle body that is about 62mm. it bolts right on. so if any of you can find b16 throttle bodies in a junk yard or whatnot it will work on your fourth gen with MPFI. not trying to take away your business, but it would seem a better idea to sell large throttlebodies as opposed to bored out throttle bodies. less work as well.

Any pics, etc. I mean, anyone can bore out a TB. But can you do it, and make a good quality product?
$30 :D

it all depends on what the price range on them are. give us a price range and we might be interested. I think I may be interested anyways.

Yeh maybe i'm interested. 70mm its too big and i know i'll lose alot of torque. Can you get it to the type r specs?

I can do ANY size, they will be completely custom if that is what you want, of course a core return will be required and production will be kind of slow, I was wondering waht you guys think would be a fair price, just let mer know what you think would be fair, to both you and me:D

Obviously you have a price in mind, so just say it. :)

price is the number one thing I look at, if it's not a decent price I dont go for it.
hence the reason I have a 92+ civic intake for my 90 EX :smoker2:
it was cheap

I really don't have a price in mind, spoons prolly costs like $2650 ( a really good price because it is authentic JDM, :( lol) I have seen some 70mm sell for over $100, I think 50 would be fair. Let me know what you guys think.

I can supply you with lots of throttle bodies. If I do, hook me up with a discount? :D
$50 sounds good.

I'm a total cheap-ass and I think $50 sounds good for a larger TB

I could use 2 throttle bodies to start with if anyone wants to sell them cheap. I kind of jumped the gun before by saying 70mm, I hope there is enough material to get them that big, and I think there is, but just to warn you guys, this may not be possible with a d16a6 throttle body, maybe with the bigger b16 though. Anyways, who wants to be the initial supplier and the first to recieve the Manaresi TB?

I can get you two TB's for sure. Maybe four. If I send you four, will you send me one bored out, free of charge? :D

i think for that price i'd be interested, but of course i want to see some of you work, and i'd want it garrenteed to be a good job, in a written form... oh yeah where are you located?

I am certainly not gonna write up a legal gurantee for a little throttle body work. But If you think I did a bad job, I will refund your money. I am in OH

hey kbslacker
for now I would just like to buy 2 from you, I don't want to promise you a free TB and then end up deciding it is not worth it for me. If you send me 2, I will give you $10 each (is that fair?) then when I send you a TB it will only be $30, or just tell me what you wanna do
