Just picked up the slide throttle assembly, I have it pictures next to my 55mm IDA Throttle Body. This will eventually be installed on my P-Port

 

Nice looking piece. Where did you pick those up from? And what kind of cfm's can it flow?

 

The 55MM IDA came from RXeng in Austraillia, same one as Tweak-it sells. The Slide throttle came from a shop that is closing down

 

Ohhh my

 

A pic from BACK in the DAY:::

 

Wow, a mechanical fuel pump where the alt should be. Is there only a single injector bung on each runner?

 

damn you and your trombone! I want one too.

 

Look at the first pic, there are 2 injectors per runner

 

aha, 90 degrees apart. What will you do about plumbing (fuel rail etc..)?

DICK!! So you're saving the IDA throttle bodies for me right?

Yeh back in the day that motor would have to find its way to my house if i won lotto and if they isotropical finishing back then

 

So I'm wondering.....whats the advantage to having a slide throttle body compared to a butterfly throttle body on a PP?
And where would I find a pair of 50+mm slide throttle bodies?

 

IDA Throttle bodies: Tweak-it or TWM induction
Slide Throttle Advantage (Theorectical), Less flow restriction and disturbance

 

If I remember correctly wasnt this the picture in "How to Modify Your Mazda Rx-7"

 

that's a great score ...

 

Dont know, dont have a copy..................

 

I have that fly wheel.I need to use it some day.

 

I've always been curious on this:

When running an individual throttle body setup like that, usually there's no air filtration visible. Do people just run them without air filters? Surely not...

 

When I used to ride Bikes.. the ZX-11 with Flat slides and Nitrous.. THAT was the ticket.
Man I miss the sound of a (Back then) MANLY ZX-11 with 175 to the Rear wheel N/A...

Scarily fast.

Only thing close.. a very high strung N/A rotary.

Edit: Oh yeah... the throttle response.. was STUNNING. MUCH better than butterflies. VERY crisp. VERY precise. And the sound at WOT... <shudder>

 

What you dont see on either of the setups is the custom airbox

 

Damn, throttle body envy. All I've got is a single 75MM...
