Has anyone installed a Q45 throttle body on an N/A KA24DE. Is there any noticable increase in throttle response and does it bolt right up to the intake manifold or is modification needed?

Thanks!

Funny thing is the KA throttle body is a good upgrade for a CA, it may be worth exploring the Q45.

Gongster, keep us informed as you search for an answer.

Hey man, i am going to the shop tonight i have a throttle body from a Q45 there. Ill see if anything is needed to bolt it up.

FYI, your gonna need to be looking for a (i believe) pre 1993 throttle body because after that they have the TCS mounted on them.

Ill get back to you tonight and let you know how it mounts.

Q45 TB on a NA KA will severely decrease throttle response… you will loose ALL modulation ability.

an extremely bad idea

I will visit the junkyard tommorow and see if I can find one. If I find one I will install it and report back the results.

it’s not going to just bolt right on, the bolt flange for it is HUGE compared to the stock unit. There isn’t enough material to drill and tap new holes.

so have fun with that…
