I was wondering if anyone has done an individual throttle body upgrade to there v-6. also i was wondering that if i did this would i still be able to turbo as long as i made a box around it all?

RPW sells them.

I think Harv was working on a set as well. I even think he's selling what he's got right now. All you wil need to do is complete it.

yea i knew about the rpw set but i didnt know if it would still be turbo capatable

as long as you make an adapter that holds air-tight, it would be.

Have fun making the box. Personally I would rather do the mitsu log setup then the crysler version. It would make the whole intake quite ungainly.

I'm thinking of doing a side-by-side twin log setup... but not going for a full 6 pack...

That was my initial plan. But I was going to put a balance tube between the two. This way I only need one AIC on one throttle body and use the TPS on the other. And mechanically link the two throttle bodies with an adjustable rod between the two, so only one set of cables would be needed.

look at my twin log picture, it has a balance tube.

also is there no way to take the manifold from a mitsubishi sohc 12v and put in my lebaron? ive seen ppl ask the question about other parts but i figure since there pretty much the same heads it would be just like putting it on backwards. or is that wrong?

Boogieman142 · 03-31-2006, 09:49 AM

well, to tell the truth if u want good airflow then u need to port the heads also, they are crappy at flow.

Wink is right I go the start to a 6pack setup.

Check it out at:

I haven't really done anything with them since I got em cut. They need the shaft, throttle plates and some linkage made up for them. I've already put $300 into them and have kinda lost interest since I got my 1G AWD Talon =).

PM me if interested.

Thats awesome, you need to finish that project up! what size is the bore for each port?

LOL yea its got 42mm bores. Could go 1 or 2 mm smaller and still have a straight shot thru to the lower runners.

See in the middle runner.

Harvii, sounds like you need to snatch up 6 old log tbodys to get the butterflys from them.

That was the initial idea, but after searching for about a week w/o success I kinda moved this project to the back burner.
