FD Upper on an Fc.
I know guys have done it,But my question is what throttle body is used?.
I would like to Run an FC throttle body on the FD upper intake/middle,using that spacer..blah blah...Will it work?..OR,can you wire the TPS of the FD throttle body to Work like a s4 TPS?..as usual Thanks Gents.STYX.

there is a narrow range TPS wire from the FD TPS that you need to splice into your TPS harness. the FD TPS needs to be adjusted so that the narrow range TPS wire has voltage of around 1 volt closed and at least 4.5-4.8 volts WOT. See FD FSM page F-168. There are two adjuster screws used to set the TPS...they like to strip out. you can replace them with allen bolts.

FD upper
Here is my brothers setup,S5 bridgeported Keg,S5 lower manifold and port matched FD upper(no spacer here)we welded some aluminum material in order to get the manifolds runners to fit 100% perfect without using any spacer,we make our own gasket out of cooper material in order to get a perfect seal(not needed you can use regular gasket material to make your own gasket),he also used the FD Throttle body(ported)and tps,before the car was bridged he drove the car on a streetport with the FD TPS on a stock n333 ecu(S4 turbo ecu)without any trouble at all.Go for the FD throttle body you will feel the diference.

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
When someone does buy one, they should rig it, test it, go to the dyno, make a run, put the original intake on, make a run, and post results.
One test > 1,000 expert opinions.

I do have pictures there is a lot of Porting to to be done to directly match the S5 lim to fd with out an adator plate. The thing with the s4 is not the runners so much as it is with the mounting points when I get on my comp I'll post pix and info an adaptor is absolutely nessisary so is hole enlongation on the fd uim holes you will also have to do some thing with the mechanical Omp

I am using an S5 Keg JW,and it is going in an S4 N/A car,going turbo.
The keg as I said,s5 with s4 front cover,Omp deleted,running premix on a RTEK 2.1...(damn that is starting to sound good,and I don't even have it in the car yet!).
