throttle body - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #15145 16 posts Started by playr158
what do you do when you bore out a throttle body?
how would i go about doing it?
i think you can take it to a machinist and they can do it for ya
take it to a machine shop. This is one of those things that have to be done by a professional.
ok so it take a pro....
but what is done?
do they just shave the inside of my throttle body?
the very begining of it(where its a circle) or the inside where it turns into the square section?

so dos anyone know which TB could fit with just minor mods???? cuz ST intake manifold can be bord out soooooo much!!!!! >biggrin.gif> >biggrin.gif>
the 22re is suppose to fit w/ minor work. the 5sfe has a 50mm tb and the 22re has 55mm i believe. I've been reading about this on celica.net.

& i hear the intake manifold for the ST & GT are the same.
so we can use the re22 throttle body and minorly modify to fit our intake manifold....but couldn't i just bore it out on my own......i'm figuring out what to use at the moment....but then you could just finish the bore using a cylinder honing device?!

the manifold is now doubt different but the TB connection might be the same
i just want to point out that on celica.net Schmleff actuatly cut off the part of the 5sfe intake manifold where it connects to the tb and replaced it with 22re connecting peace. so im guessing that the TBs dont match up.
