    You have a DBW setup, you couldn't really swap throttle bodys even if you wanted too.

    drive by wire. its what they use on 04+ cars. I think the 04+ cars have a 72 mm throttle body. the throttle body isn't really a restriction, but the mass air flow can only handle so much air flow, so that's why people switch over the the 75mm north star throttle body.

    After I posted that I realized what it stood for. Thanks. That wouldn't be much of a change anyway.
