if thats the case, would it be better if i were to convert it straight to individual throttle bodies ? But the trouble is to custom a manifold isn't it ?

*Forgot to ask 1 more question, since th car is drive by wire, how do i increase my idling time ? as currently with my setup the idling is quite drastic ranging from 800-1000rpm and when the acc is on it goes as low as 700rpm.

Was thinking of stabilizing it around 1100rpm - 1200rpm. what is needed to change mind i ask ?

wat kind of ride u riding now...??
most of car is range at 700rpm-900rpm, why u wanna up to 1200rpm..?? when u on the aircond, the rpm will increase 100rpm or more....

if u really wanna stiil at 1100-1200rpm, just get a manual rpm controller set. easy & cheap....

well... could possibly work out but so far i havent seen anyone done it before lar...
use standalone ecu.... convert ur throttle body to cable linkage type.... reset all fuel and ignition mapping.... not sure is possible or not... but definitely alot of work...

seen it being done before.on a satria neo 1.6.i don't think he's using standalone ecu.
hmmm..that sounds like it possible to be done without a standalone but i guess with a Better ECU is would be safer i guess
