I already have the throttle bodies and inlet manifold! So say i went and bought the rest of the gear its all going to be good. I dont want mad spec like broster, but i want car to have a decent kick etc....

that kit from balance motorsport looks good exept the smallest they do is the 45mm body. 40 is ideal for a 1.6.

but then you will need a loom, inlet and fuel pressure regulator which will set you back a further:

loom £200
air temp sensor: £30
manifold: £180
REGULATOR: £80

so a total of about £1700.

plus it uses a seperate module for ignition. all in 1 ecu's are far easier.

If you get the kit we can build you the engine no problems :)

We have an XE running the TP270 kit, so we can do it right lol


L30 SCT

posted on 14th May 06 at 12:43

The kit includes the following:

- KMS ECU plastic case
- KMS 45mm Throttle Bodies
- Ignition module
- 4 x Injectors(please state horsepower target on order form)
- Throttle Linkage
- 4 x Airhorns - please specify 30/45/60/75/90mm Length on order form
- FREE coolant temperature and water temperature sensors


thats what you get with that kms kit

kms stuff is usually pretty good :thumbs:

I know they make direct to head bodies for 106 gti. Also looks like they bundle standalone management with it! that alone is worth 500-600 quid

balance motorsport and i aint sure on loom you do get a couple of sensors.

have a look on the website and tell me what you think.

where is that from? does it inludethe sensors and loom?

they claim 164 bhp from their basic kit. I know 3 people that have fitted it to a c16xe, the usual power it gives is anything from 140 to 150 bhp. there was a big thread about it on mig a while back, it turned out that the 164 figure was a bit of an optimistic one. Noble motorsport has mapped a few of these kits now and they only usually see around 150ish.

sbd claim 160bhp out of the c16xe (completely standard except conrod bolts) using their taper throttle body kit and correct exhaust system, the whole engine,head,cams ect remain standard.


Dave A

tapered throttle body basicly means that the body gets narrower from the inlet to the butterfly. most bodies are tapered. there is also 2 different tyes of manifold, parralell:



and tapered:



with the x16xe the tapered inlet is a lot better. when i fitted the tapered inlet i gained about 10 bhp just because the x16xe inlet ports sit at 30 degrees (same as the tapered manifold) and far less restrictive.

rite now that i have been talked out of putting a turbo on my car i have decided to look at throttle bodie kits. (
websites of kits and prices would help)

i take it that taper are better than multi point?

can people that have throttle bodies put up the spec of there cars and how reliable it has been.

thanks
