Oil Catch can and 68mm TB
Installed my oil catch can and revised 68mm throttle body this weekend.
I am curious if there is anyone else out there who a) has an ITR, and b) uses the Holley 68mm TB. I am having a problem with idle dwell, i.e. won't come back to idle when I release the gas, and I am not quite sure about what would induce this characteristic. Any input would be appreciated. Cheers. |

I have now removed the replacement 68mm TB from Holley.
It appears that there is some fundamental design difference between the 2 which will not allow my idle to settle down between shifts and when I come to a stop... Very puzzling because the moment I put the old one back on, this problem ceased to be a problem. ??? |

Kind of sad after paying so much money eh.
I think I will go SPOON TB, I like the conical design, should increase velocity. |

Yes, it MAY improve velocity but it will not increase volume due to the venturi being the same size.
I believe that people have realized moderate gains with this piece, but not worth the money. Pull yours and machine it yourself. I did originally. Worked well. |

The main reason I like the SPOON is because of the fact that it is a brand new TB complete with New TPS and MAP sensor, this would allow me to sell my old Type-R TBfor about the same amount I bought it for.
But I do agree with you on the Venturi part, I really do not understand why the didnt increase the venturi to say 68mm and then have it expand to 70mm at the inlet. |

I believe it screws up the calibration on the stock map sensor. This would partly explain some of the problems I am having with the Holley 68mm TB.
