Are you dead set on 62 mm, or would you consider 60? See link below.

Sorry chitown, your car is listed as a 2.4 on your profile info. Have no fear, the same company makes that t/b for the 3400 as well. Same price.

Nice looking piece, but, it's just a body, nothing else.

if your wanting the 60+mm TB for the 2.4,I wouldn't go that big. Unless your going with boost it wouldn't help much. Stock,the motor can only suck in so much air and the bigger TB would actually be too big,the engine can only suck in what it wants. It wouldn't hurt performance but it would be a waste of money until you have boost.
For the 2.4 Id go with the 2.3 HO TB,its 56mm from the factory so Id go with that instead.
If your using it on the 3400 then yea go for it

I have the 65 from 60*. Nice body but without tuning(DHP or HP tuners) you will not get much out of it. With the other mods(Intake,exhaust, heads, cam, push rods, fuel pump, injectors...) this 65er' will do nicely!! ;)

From the web site (you gotta read the fine print)
"All Throttle Bodies are complete minus sensors. I will set up the options for the different linkages, but for now just expect an email from me if you do not list your vehicle in the comments at check out. If I do not have your linkage type at the time of order, I will find one and let you know of the delay."

Stock is 58mm
If a TB is all you have for performance mods you wont gain much at all.

okay so its mod that works better once more mods are done....thanks and sorry but i have a 2.4L AND A GT i dont want to do anything to the 2.4 though i want to do stuff to the GT only..... im just trying to get ideas on where to start and what to get.......

Start with your exhaust, then work with your intake.

Actually stock is 56mm ;)
And yea there are many other better mods to do before a bigger tb

okay i already have a borla exhaust and i just purchased a 3 piece intake from chromeintakes ...... what would you guys recommend next ????

Pcm, and ffp ud pulley. You can buy both of them together for less than the tb,and you will notice much more from those mods. TB would work much better with ported manifolds

okay cool... i was looking around and i see milzy has a few pcm's to choose from they have a plain one a stage 1 and a stage 2 ..... which one would you guys recommend for my situation....and do i have to do any other mods to be able to put this in or is it just plug in and go.......(once i figure this out ill work on the pulleys)
thanks again

Stage one and 2 are for engines that have had head, intake, and cam work.
chitown16
10-09-2006, 08:22 PM
okay then ill just go with the plain jane one then...........

I have milzy's basic setup pcm and love it. Install is easy, but youll have to do a security relearn and prolly a case learn. Def one of the best mods for our cars. Just make sure to use 91+ gas

realearn????? whats that (id rather not search)

Security relearn is simple.
Try to start car. It wont start it will click back to on position.
Leave it in on position for aroun 11-12 mintues
Turn to off, leave there for about 30 seconds. Dont remove key
Try to start, though you may have to do this more than once.
If you get an ses light youll have to get the CASE relearn, which I never did although most would advise you to. If so just go to a dealer and tell them you want that done, but make sure you tell them NOT to reflash the pcm, or you will lose all of your retuned parameters.

okay i understand the first part but what is the point of a CASE relearn (what is it)

:banghead:
Click on the search button, type in CASE LEARN, then read a few threads.
