its for a 6 . is it true that smaller might produce a higher air speed as the car seems to flatten out about the 160 mark . i dont wont a high price jet but i do like to kick it in the guts every now and then .

For an ED six: none that are worthwhile until you've got some SERIOUS mods happening. There are members on here with multiple throttle bodies/custom intake manifolds however. Unfortunately their names slip my mind but I suspect that one is "NApower" or something like that.

the guy with the black EB/ED with the checker plate cutout on his bonnet has six throttle bodies, not sure what his name is though, but the car sounds pretty crazy has a good pop to it, not sure on engine mods though, and I think RPD sell 6 throttle body manifolds dont they
