Individual Throttle Body PORN thread.

My own gruppe H engine bought it January 2004 from the owner of this car: http://www.supertouringregister.com/register/vehicle/1/
The engine is waiting for a cosmetic overhaul/refurbishment (new fuel rail etc.)

Some specs:
50mm ITBs
1.9 diesel crankcase
Oettinger sump
runs on digifant
kevlar airbox with long built in air horns
runs up to 8200rpm
230hp (according to Hohenester dyno)
Built by Hohenester

 

Welcome to the forum and many thanks for sharing those pictures!

 

Any further specs?

 

Not at this point. I am looking at getting in touch with Hohenester to get further information about this engine.

 

A bit more itb porn:

Is that red engine bay from this mk1?

It's not that Golf. The Spiess Golf has a 1600cc capacity engine.

It's this Golf from Rainer/Andrea Schoenborn:

I have a query about running ITB's... What's the solution for the brake servo system? In a stock 16V engine the servo connects to the back of the inlet manifold to create it's vacuum, but what's the ways around this when running ITB's?

 

I believe you tap into one of the runners, its what I did with my jenveys.

 

You will not always get enough vacuum from one runner, especially if you have some decent cams, so you may need to put a couple into an accumulator

 

You can use two runners. This is how Toyota done it with the ITBs I use (4AGE 20v). Tappings on first and last runners then tee'd into 1.

 

Cheers for that. I'll probably tap into at least two, if not all 4 as I'll be running a worked cylinder head with upgraded cams and larger 280mm front brakes so think all 4 are required. Will just T-piece them all into a single line and hide the air line to the servo as best as possible.

 

You could tap into all four then into a accumulator with one pipe out!

 

I've tried finding a pic but no joy yet!

 

Just my 2 cents!
