turbo II swap guys, where did you get your thottle body elbow
 
My Jspec motor (91) came with the stock TMIC.

where can I get a forward facing elbow for the throttle body.

Doesn't greddy make one for the T2 engine? I'd post this over in the 2nd gen section you might get better info there. I'm not sure there is anyone putting a T2 engine in a FB now a days, well if you can get a hold of Jim L he might know where to get one I guess.
I guess I'm licky because the 13B-RE has a pretty good stock TB elbow.

I am not any help either. Iam using a Greddy Elbow, but it is for the 3rd Gen throttlebody, attached to the Cosmo engine/intake.

Check with the Australian guys. I believe they have an adapter, that takes your stock throttlebody elbow, and rotates it 180 degrees, so it faces forward.

i did post it in the 2nd gen forum, they werent any help either.

They suggested using the NA elbow, or having one made.

the Na elbow has a 4 in inlet or something huge like that.

Could you cut off the stock inlet down to the flange then weld on a larger tube? Assuming you have access to a TIG or someone that does.

Try www.rxengineering.com under the speedshop, then miscellaneus.

They have an inlet that you can weld a mandrel bend onto to suit your I/C pipes. Or just weld on a short straight pipe and then use silicone hose to get the bends you need.

on my comso , i juts cut the old one off, reshaped the angle and welded the old flange back on there, I doubt that helps you, but thats what I did
