ssac 1/g nt throttle body

[lq1driver]

Hey guys I was wondering if any one running an ssac fmic has any one installed a 1g n/t throttle body and what all did you need to do it? im getting a decent boost leak from the welds of the upper pipe that bolts to the intake so i figure why fix it when i can up grade it

i dont understand what you are talking about upgrading. are you talking about upgrading a pipe from you kit?

I have this, but also have a smim so the setup is a little different. Get a 2.5 to 2.75 45* bend silicone coupler, that may work for you. The n/t is a 2.75 inlet.

well im gonna upgrade the throttle body to a 1g n/t throttle body i like the design better and it flows better than a stock 2g

are 1g turbo throttle bodies the same as 1g n/t?

The 1g turbo tb has a 4bolt flange, the 1g n/t tb is the same except there is no flange you use a silicon coupler. It's a 2.75 inlet. Do a search on ebay you will see detailed pics.

NT is better, even for the fact is uses 1 less gasket.

exactly thats one of the reasons i want to up grade to it so all i need to do is find a siliconencoupler that goes from 2 1/2 to 2 3/4 at a 45 degree angle and port my manifold and i should be good

What did you end up doing to get the SSAC UICP to work with a TB that requires a coupler not 4 bolt flange?

currently im running a slight boost leak but shortley here im going to be making a custom set up for maft and the non turbo throttle body i think i have everything figured out now
