They had a seperate ICV, yes it will idle. | |

could you attach a ICV to the plug on the loom but fix the ICV out the way and not have a fault code pop, how is idle controlled on the GTE cos surely the X16XE wont idle without a bypass round the butterfly | |

A nova GTE item goes straight on, but there's no ICV, fitting bigger injectors is just asking to run rich and loose power. | |

lol, yeah anyone who believes a rolling road which makes those claims is silly..(no you who ever told you) 1.6 is the better option | |

i almost bought an x14xe with a boost valve and full sebring zorst, which stangely ran 106 bhp :boggle: the throttle body may improve throttle response a bit and induction noise but not give any extra ponies as such | |

dont get a boost valve, get the car mapped properly. | |

ok, i was just thinking along the lines of if i'm getting more air in with a larger t.b, i would add a bit more fuel. do you think the boost valve will keep enough pressure & fuel in? | |

on a standard lump the throttle body isn't really a limiting factor :thumbs: | |

Possibly mod a nova GSI/GTE throttle body, but you will need a mantzel power box to do it properly, wont need bigger injectors till ya running throttle bodies and thats when ya running major rpm and wild cams | |
