just bolt it on they are the same as a turbo one but with the lip on it. Or if you want to find a evo III t.b. they are bigger than a 1g.

Keep in mind you will have to modify your intercooler piping once its on there! No elbow coming off of the TB.

Re: Converting a NT throttle body?

oh ok easy enough I thought that I herd that you had to do different seals for some reason, never mind. does anyone have an idea of the degree of the angle from the tb to next to the radiator where a short route intercooler goes on a 2g? it doesn't look like my 45 degree coupler I ordered will work.

Re: Converting a NT throttle body?

My motive for doing it was just eliminating one more flange that could potentially be a boost leak. I prefer the coupler connection.

Like Schiedes said, slight modifications will have to be done to your UICP.

I have short route piping and it's an exact 90 degree angle if you have the upper pipe running straight front to back, although my 90 is in my piping.
