will a straight neck TB fit the US millenia IM?

Post by Sean Mandell »

I just got a great deal on a us-spec millenia intake mani. The only thing is it did not come with the Throttle body. Will the straight neck TB off the klze fit my new intake?

wheres the deal from, becouse we like deals. I cant see why it wouldnt fit, I have used a klze throttle body from a straight neck on a 1.8 manifold and na 2.5 manifold and that works fine.

it will bold on no problem, but because it has a smaller inner diamiter you will have less air flow and you will loose some H.P.<p>you could try the local pick a part wreckers for a TB from a 2.5 probe,626,Mx-6.

It didnt fit right on mine because of 1 the coolant line or 2 the TPS sensor is located on the opposite side. I cant remeber which reason though.

No it won't fit, look in the V6 FAQ, I did a little write up a while back, though I never uploaded any pictures.

you might find the studs on the end of the inlet manifold the wrong length so at worst you will just have to swap them over as well & also make up a bracket to hold the throttle cable. Otherwise ok.
