I thought you guys had more brains than that. SO a bloke told you that they dont work as good in turbo form, thats BULL ####, so NIssan wouldnt have put millions into R&D for the GTIR and GTR and forgot to check if the inlets work better with multi throttles, more to the fact that not everybody can tune them good thats why their taken off. Also think about this the balance you get into each chamber ,surface area of quads to single.but if you dont want them you dont want them!

Thus the reason you see RB26 guys tossing theres in favor of one enormous throttle body. I definitely wouldn't waste the money.

i asked my mechanic and he said dont bother it wouldnt be worth tha money cause quadtroddle body on a turbo isnt as afective as on a n/a motor he said it would be cheaper 2 get a custom one!

sure you could get them addapted.all you need to do is get an adaptor manifold made. this would be costing a couple hundred dollars from your local fabricator. or it could be attempted your self

If you're asking would it adapt itself, the answer would be no, but if you mean can the throttle bodies be mounted to the ca18det, the answer would be yes, but the question is how would you go about it in light of the fact there is no pre-made side-draft manifold made for this engine, which has something to do (obviously & unfortunately) with the logistics associated with the 8 port design, so add the cost of a fabricated intake manifold (and that won't be the easiest one ever made) to the cost of the throttle bodies and, yeah, 200kw is probably good enough.

I'm sure someone could make an adapter to suit...isn't 200kW enough? The money could be spent on something more worthwhile..like Beer, Chicks and Beer.

ps. Beer is so important..I included it twice.

hay would it adapt 2 a ca18det???? i will buy it if it does!!!

hi guys, well i have a set of quad throttle bodies from a GTIR Pulsar. they are 45mm ID. they would make a good conversion for a SR20 powered 1200 or could be adapted for an FJ20.
asking $700 any takers
