Leonard 0 Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Kev would there be any benefit getting one of the polished bored throttle bodies off ebay for my 2.9 Corrado then? Or is it going to make no difference? Nice spec car by the way, pretty much my dream spec, although I worry about more than 230bhp throughthe front wheels even with the LSD.Matt :-) Link to post Share on other sites
