In keeping with the hybrid theme (Chevy, Mitsu), I am adding a Ford Mustang throttle Body. It is 65 mm TB available on the cheap ($30). Not bad to adapt and I was able to make a fairly simple adapter plate so I can use the 951 TPS. The flange has just enough room to drill the factory intake pattern. Even the 951 throttle cable fits perfectly with no modification. I plan on testing it later this week.

Would it make more sense, to add IC sprays in the IC outlet, before the throttle body?

Shawn - buckets full of kudos to you man! I am impressed over and over again with all of your development, willingness to share, speed you accomplish things, and just bottom line results. I have no doubt you will be (if not already) one of the legends on this board (and I don't mean to overlook Sid & Joshua either). Absolute first rate work.

Just had to say something and thank you for all the data logging, incremental testing and letting us all in on the results. You the man. Like I said before, so wish you were my neighbor... Hope I can talk to you in the not too distant future about a 2.85 hybrid build of my own. Thanks again for everything you've contributed to the board and 951 world in general!

Thanks man! Just fun for me . Yes, Josh and Sid should be mentioned as most of what I do is their idea. Mostly someone just mentions something and then I run with it.

The sprayers are on the outside of the intercooler.

Sorry for OT, but welcome back Hosrom! And, yes, for injected spray, you want to add it in the I/C pipe ahead of the TB. Shawn is cooling the intercooler itself by spraying down the outside of it...

Thank you Tom. I am asking since i do not know which route to go for in this super heated country. Maybe one should go for both? spray the IC and have a nozzle before the TB?
