Throttle Bodies on an M42 Engine?

[Mikey_Bwoy]

Does anyone know of any links or pictures of any cars that have a TB'd M42 engine?

I can get new Jenvey items for a knock-down price at the moment as Jenvey are right on my doorstep

Thought it was something worth considering as I love the sound a throttle-bodied engine produces :cool:

Good Products...but Quite Difficult To Map Properly

[Mikey_Bwoy]

That was one of my biggest concerns

Is an aftermarket ECU a must?

[CA Automotive UK]

no need for aftermarket ECU at all :) It just has to be done properly ...

[Mikey_Bwoy]

OK, thanks Roy :)

[Mikey_Bwoy]

Further to that though, is it preferable to retain the original ECU and have it mapped properly that way rather than buying, say, an OMEX 600 ECU?

I think I'm going to go for this

Jenvey TB set-up, Schrick Cams, Eisenmann exhaust and a bit of head work

even if nothing else, the sound should be immense, lol

I got my full exhaust system,induction kit and big bore throttle body kit fitted on the same day and the difference in sound and performance was amazing!!
good luck and post some pics when fitted.

sounds good then! :cool:

I'll update when things start to happen, still got plenty to do in the meantime, but fancied doing a something a little different engine-wise, and then this suddenly dawned on me when I was reading an article about something completely different, lol

Sounds like a great plan Mikey, cant wait to see your install on the TBs, please post pics !!!

Let us know if we can help with eisenmann and head work

best of luck
