performance?

65mm tce TB costs about 300$ and i got my ported manifolds from gagt new about 400$

[02AleroGLS]

Yeah i figure ill have to pay a little extra cause i cant have alot of down time so i wont be able to send in my cores till after i install the new parts

[02AleroGLS]

And what would happen if i bypass my egr valve without tuning it out?? Anything besides a svs light???

[sleepyalero]

Not sure. I removed mine and tuned it out.

yes the lx5 throttle body has a cable driven butterfly,
im running that same tb on my lx9 swap ,
it came out of a olds intrigue 3.5 twin cam

[02AleroGLS]

Whats all involved in swapping the throttle body besides buying the adaptor?? Any rigging or anything i would have to do to it? And do the sensors on th elx5 tb work on my motor??

[jawa]

well i used the adapter that came on the lx5 and modifed it to work on the lx9 u.i.m. if your running the stock 3400 u.i.m. you will need to have the tb opening bored out to match the 65 mm tb other wise it defeats the purpose of doing the swap

[02AleroGLS]

Ok well as the funds come to be available i will be getting the p&p uim & lim so that will solve that problem lol! Im looking around here a tb but not having any luck yet. I'm gonna just buy the tb first then the adaptor,then the uim,then the lim,then the gaskets im gonna need,then maybe i can build up the courage to change it all at once lol

[jawa]

for a cheaper option go with a 3500 upper and lower combo they flow better stock then the p&p 3400 ones

[02AleroGLS]

Does it matter what year make or model of car i get them from??

[WhiteV6]

You have to run 3500 heads to use the 3500 lower. I wouldn't say stock 3500 manifolds outflow ported 3400 manifolds. Its not really important since you can't use 3500 heads with 3400 manifolds either.

[02AleroGLS]

Ok i cant have much down time cause this is my only car and i dont really have the extra core charge money so what do you think i should do then?? Maybe run the ported. Lim an d3500 uim and the lx5 tb? Or would it not be worth it? Sorry im just trying to find the best bang for the buck..

[WhiteV6]

Leave it alone.

[Redog]

Looking for the best bang for the buck? Right now, focus of that custody battle. It's going to take a lot of bucks, and the ex is going to try to bang you and not in a good way

[02AleroGLS]

Yeah i paid my lawyer but were not sure how its gonna turn out quite yet. All she did was treat mw like crap the whole 3 years we were together and found out she cheated on me too. The only thing saving me is that we never got married. Everyone is acting like she is the victim in this whole mess when im the one taking care of my son and she is trying to nail me for child support

[02AleroGLS]

Hey for a lx9 engine with 102,000 miles with a 30 day warranty worth $492.00 including shipping?! I dont know how much they are really worth

Sorry dude, but she is the "victim" because she is the woman, and you are the man. The one with the penis is always wrong.

Family Court really doesn't care about who cheated. This even goes for if you cheated on her. If she ever hit you and you have proof (i.e. Police report) you might have a chance to win custody of your kid, but even at that point it's still slim.
