1g tb in a 2g

[szewczyd]

Just was wondering if a nonturbo 1throttle body is as big as the 1g turbo throttle body. Also if it is the same will it fit right into a 2g turbo eclipse like the turbo ones do?

They will fit but...
A: They will need the shaft seals from your 2G TB. N/T TB shaft seals...suck.
B: You will need an angled piece of hose to connect the TB to UICP. N/T TB's have no TB elbow.
C: Yes they are the same size.

I hope u are experienced with the tps and possibly the bis. If not, when u swap, u will have to take the tps off your 2g and put it on the n/t tb and u will be sure to get idle surge. also be sure that you have all the vaccum connections at the top of the tb for the swap before u buy it. Also, give it a good cleaning prior to installing it too, to help with the idle surge, it might be dirty. I never heard of anyone putting a n/t tb on a turbo car, but i guess if it works, go for it. After i did mine, i didn't really notice too much of a gain on my top end. If i had it to do over again, i wouldn't have done it and just bought a intake manifold and cams if i wanted top end pwr. And keep my good smooth idle. Just my 2 cents though.
