Motorcycle throttle bodies for your car

Translate Into:

Filed under: ,


[Dem_z] modded his Honda VTEC engine to use a set of individual throttle bodies from a 2001 Suzuki GSX-R motorcycle. The fuel injection bungs on the throttle bodies were epoxied shut and the bodies were only used to provide individual butterflies for each cylinder. This one doesn't quite make our to do list, but it's definitely a hack.

[bender386] caught my blunder first, so I'll be sending him a bit of Hack-A-Day swag. In the meantime, here's a little bonus: Check out this home built anamorphic lens. Native 2.35:1 projectors have started showing up, but they're insanely expensive. By adding some image processing and a lens to stretch the projected image, you can get full width projection and use all the pixels on the projector.
