Hi. I'm looking to get my manifolds and throttle body ported on my evo 9 but am struggling to find anywhere in the uk that will do it. Anyone know anywhere?

Thanks

A good machine shop should be able to help. But the throttle body, you'd be better to get an uprated one like an s90

I had a quick google and saw that they do different sizes going up to about 74mm. If I did decide to go that route, what size would I want so it would match up with the inlet? I guess there's a limit to how much it can be ported?

Thanks

EDIT: it looks like the evo 9 uses the 74mm TB. I guess the manifold can be ported to that size so it's put to use?

Haha sorry mate, I just know nothing about this stuff and after planning on getting my TB ported to 65mm, now I'm looking at possibly getting a 74mm TB.... I just wanted to be sure it would fit. I've found a UK seller that has the s90 70mm TB, would that do the job or is getting the 74mm shipped in a good idea?

Thanks

Not sure on the actual size of the inlet. I'm presuming they can be match ported to the same size.
What bhp are you running as std setup is normally fine. Unless your looking for those extra bhp to push the number up lol

I think it's 62mm as standard but widening it another 12mm sounds unlikely to me, but in no professional. Well at the moment it's not been mapped so is probably still around the standard 340, but I've started modding and will be getting it mapped soon with any luck so am looking to free up a few more horses. I might go for big power one day so getting mods like this done is probably a good idea.
