    I have the same for my d16 and it has worked perfectly.
    if you calibrate the tps, closed and wot, you'll never have the butterfly stick
    and adjust your throttle cable to allow for max travel closed and wot.

    @JEMMotorsports, we didn't pull out the stud extractor because most garage DIY'ers won't have one in their tool kit. The goal of this video was to show how to install the product with some basic tools. :)

    •  2 года назад +1

      Where can buy the same multimeter, like in the video?
      Also the wires red and green (not used yellow) in engine D series D16Y8
      Will read correct voltage with this same plug (that probably is B series plug tps)

    Going to be getting the 66mm skunk2 TB, fingers crossed the install goes as smoothly as this! damn that EG is clean

    •  2 года назад +1

      Is still match for the stock intake manifold? No need pro series intake manifold for 66mm? (from past know 70mm is pro series size, or maybe just buy pro series..)

    • @Fuzion180
      @Fuzion180 2 года назад

      @ for stock I am not sure, I have the pro series and it fits perfect. I recommend the Pro intake.

    •  2 года назад

      @@Fuzion180 the problem need to make correct this tps, don't know how do it or have I for about some multimeter and how make with hem check voltage, try even found this video multimeter if even older for make copy paste for match tps..
      ..also in past try with some fake copy model pro series without logo skunk2 and thortle 70 mm on engine ZC, but still is 1.6 Liter d series..
      Today have d16y8..but still is not B series or H or F..so did it make really hp more in D series? I'm read there now 56mm tb in d16y8, but hem condition not the best..
      Also search even second hand this set 70tb+intake manifold skunk2..for D series..

    @ Kyle the iacv doesn't hook up to the throttle body it hooks up to the intake manifold. you must have left something unplugged. only the fitv would be on the throttle body an the ecu won't throw a code for it because it's mechanical not electrical
