New mod--> lancer throttle body

I just finished installing my newest mod: RRM Bored Throttlebody

it's everything that they say it is! throttle response is even better. Blip the throttle and the car responds instantly, no hesitation. Install took like 5mins, literally. The new throttle body works great with my ported intake manifold. With my turbo i can feel the air is flowing way better because it hits boost so much quicker.

at first i was skeptical and didn't think the throttle body would do too much, but i was wrong. You can definately tell the difference. I recommend the throttlebody and intake manifold combo for any NA or Turbo lancer!

It's a 15 minute install. Unbolt 4 bolts, unplug hoses, put new TB in place, redo everything you undid.

T.B. is an easy install, just like guys said. It does work well especially on turbo. But N/A guys have also enjoyed the benefits. We have a pretty good stock of cores to work with so the wait is not too long on t.b.s usually.
