Is there a link to buy them? I also thought you offered them painted?

Tampa Tuning · 01-05-2014, 07:33 AM

I don't do drop shipping on the throttle body. I actually stock them and have them to you in 2-3 days with a Paypal purchase.

Guys, since this is a DIY thread, please PM me with questions about purchasing the Vmax CnC ported throttle bodies. So it doesn't get mucked up as a sales thread.

Thanks
Phil

Phil,
I remember a post by a member warning about the relatively light torque specs on the TB mounting bolts. Can you quote those specs here and are they included in the installation instructions furnished with the part?

FB3 · 02-27-2014, 02:56 PM

I am not certain, but I believe that the torque specs for the TB bolts is 100 inch pounds. You will notice that it is quite easy to unfasten the stock bolts. You do not want to strip the threads in the manifold.

I dont have specific torque numbers. All of the ones Ive installed, I ratchet it down good and snug but not overly tight

Low Saturn · 03-02-2014, 05:36 PM

12 Nm or 106 lb in.

Ive never replaced the gasket or had to do a throttle body learn.

Looks like driving the car normally will eventually do the learn cycle.

Quote:

Without Scan Tool - Learn Procedure

Note:*Do NOT perform this procedure if DTCs are set. Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.

-Start and idle the engine in PARK for 3*min.
-Monitor desired and actual RPM.
-The ECM will start to learn the new idle cells and Desired RPM should start to decrease.
-Ignition OFF for 60*s.
-Start and idle the engine in PARK for 3*min.
-After the 3*min run time the engine should be idling normal.

Note:*During the drive cycle the check engine light may come on with idle speed DTCs. If idle speed codes are set, clear codes so the ECM can continue to learn.

⇒ If the engine idle speed has not been learned the vehicle will need to be driven at speeds above 70*km/h (44*mph) with several decelerations and extended idles.

-After the drive cycle, the engine should be idling normally.
⇒ If the engine idle speed has not been learned, turn OFF the ignition for 60*s and repeat step*6.

-Once the engine speed has returned to normal, clear DTCs and return to the diagnostic that referred you here.
