The Dart 2.0L / 2.4L / Renegade 2.4L / Compass 2.4L / Fiat 500X with 2.4L engine all get great gas mileage, and have good power, but we want more power, and better throttle response!
So, what we did is bore the throttle body out from the OEM factory size of 64mm to 68mm. Because the throttle body controls the amount of air going into the motor, once you port a throttle body, you improve the air flow going to the motor. This makes the car more throttle responsive (that means fun!) and you make more horsepower and torque!
We've been selling these throttle bodies since late 2014 to many Dart owners with 2.0 and 2.4 engines. They've noticed a immediate difference in power and fun factor, and had zero check engine lights or problems.
What you'll receive
We start with a brand new throttle body, then disassemble it, remove the drive by wire motor, bore the housing, install a machined brand new throttle plate, and re-assemble. What you'll receive is a brand new unit, ready to replace your old one with. No further work is needed by you, other than removing the stock throttle body that's held in place with four bolts, then replace with the new unit.
This throttle body works great with both automatic and manual transmissions!
What this bored throttle body will do for you
- You'll have a lot more fun, because your throttle response will be better.
- You'll gain a solid 4-7 horsepower across the board, and 6-8 lbs of torque.
- You'll have no check engine lights, no idle issues, no problems at all.
Installation:
Installation is very easy, the throttle body is held to the intake manifold by four screws and one bracket. You simply unplug the battery terminals to disconnect the electrical system, remove the electrical plug, take off the screws and bracket, and then remove the old throttle body. Make sure the throttle body gasket is still on the throttle body, and install the new bored unit, reconnect electrical wiring and battery terminals. You can then immediately drive your car and notice the difference. There is no PCM tune needed, no break in period needed, etc.
After you receive and install the throttle body, do the throttle relearn procedure:
1. Turn off all accessories
2. Insert key and turn to "ON" (Not Start)
3. Wait for the "DING" to depress throttle to the floor fully until check engine light flashes
4. Hold until CEL stops flashing
5. Turn key to "OFF"
6. Release throttle
7. Wait 2 minutes before start-up
