[quote][i]Originally posted by Stu[/i] Basically the 2.0XE has one throttle butterfly which lets air into the inlet manifold, this air is then split between the 4 cylinders. Throttle bodies have 4 throttle butterflies - one for each cyliner which means each cylinder gets much more air. Air + fuel = Power Difficult to compare them to a turbo as they are a very different way of tuning. There are loads of advantages of each. The main advantages of throttle bodies are that the power delivery is smooth all the way through the rev range unlike a turbo where power is delivered when the turbo spools (usually around 3k revs) [/quote]
