1G NT TB on a 2g turbo?

[blcknspo0ln]

really noob question but I need to know before i take apart anything. anyone know if you can use the 1G nonturbo throttle body on a 2g turbo mani? is there anything different? from the looks of it they are similar, except the water lines are facing the other direction.

I am sure there is a reason people use the 92'-94 1G Turbo throttle bodies vs. every other 1G throttle body, but I can't tell you why cause I don't know.

Its a good thought though, N/T 1G's are everywhere.

Someone will know for sure, and why.

Yes you can. The nt throttle body has a bigger opening then the turbo one but by the throttle plate they both have the same dimensions.

 

[blcknspo0ln]

both are 60mm then I guess huh?

 

[Lunch_Box]

Yes they are both 60mm by the time they get to the intake manifold.

The NT TB's do not require the use of the elbow....they have a neck for an IC coupler.

replace the shaft seals befor you put it in with the ones from the turbo TB.
just what ive heard.
