Aftermarket Throttle Body or Spacer

I am looking for an aftermarket throttle body or throttle body spacer! I have no idea where to even begin looking, any help would be greatly appreciated! I found a thread saying that the 4G63 throttle body would fit, but again, who the heck would I find one!

Please let me know if you have any information whatsoever on this stuff! Road Race Motors seems possible, but since I live in Canada, I've no idea how reliable they are! I'm not gonna blow $600 for a maybe...

I know it doesn't, it's for a 2006 Lancer Ralliart. I'm not in it entirely for the power, but my throttle response would improve.

It's not the 4g63 that'll fit. We have a thread here somewhere in regards to which throttle body is the one that fits.

if you're looking for a larger throttle body, you will need to tune the ECU...I don't know of an after market throttle body that is the same size that works with our engine...the throttle is electronic.

The endeavor one seems to work fine without issue though.

4g Eclipse GT throttle body is 65mm. It bolts and plugs directly in. Lanzer did this I believe he said it really improved throttle response.

If your looking for a spacer. RPW makes a thermal spacer for the stock TB.

I thought I remember hearing that the car didn't like the 65 all that much though? Was throwing codes or something. I went with the 63 and all was fine.

I remember a few guys who did. But I was pretty certain several guys got it running with no issues.

Thank you soooo much!! I'll do a bit more research but it looks like I'll be buying this in the next few days xD
