I have a pretty much stock 1990 ls and i want to put a header and an intake manifold on it but should i also add a throttle body to it for more power?
Should I get a Throttle Body?

thats right.
No, a throttle body will not help your car AT ALL with those modifications u listed, don't waste your money

Well thanks haha XD is there anything else i could do for more power other than a turbo? or anything else thats super expensive?
rockadilla
thats right.
Search around this website, that question gets asked at least once a week
But basically besides the bolt ons I/H/E the only other way to gain notable power besides FI is to build up the engine NA

:werd:The best way to make more power for your car, is either take the engine out rebuild it with better performance parts, or swap it for a better engine.

yep i agree, and there is nothing cheap in our motors. i have the same one and found 40 over rock pistons for 100 bucks out of cali and thats the cheapest i have found for pistons that i have heard r good everyone else r 300 plus. if you want to do it stick to our plan and DO NOT take any short cuts. thats the only way you will get a reliable motor that last.

If you're talking prices for parts, next to D series motors, B is the next cheapest. I don't know what other kind of make motor you can get up to 300whp with a couple thousand dollars...yep i agree, and there is nothing cheap in our motors.

i can build a 350 in to a 383 strocker and port the heads and punch it 40 over for under a grand and have 750 whp. im saying compared to other makes of vehicles hondas are one of the more expensive vehicles to build. but i wouldnt trade mine for another make. anyways like i said before build the engine from the bottom up then get a throttle body. skunk2 has a 68 n 70 mm cheaper then anyone else i have found. ive heard there really good. but u dont need it with a stock motor. if you dont want to build it go buy a full exhaust hks preferably n cold air intake, get a adjustible fuel pressure regulator and advance the timing a little and you will get a few more horsepower oh and make the exhaust 2 1/2 piping.anything else and you might as well build.
