hi guys ive been looking into getting a set of individual throttle bodies for the b18c. not really getting that far and i need info fairly quick so would be greatful if anyone can help me out with pro's and con's on the system, and anything i'd need to do/get. oh and any pictures would be great.
Thanks
 
Pros:
sound awesome
look badass
more power
good chunk more midrange torque

Cons:
Expensive
hard to tune for some tuners
some will say need cams/higher compression
possible lumpy idle, bad cold start due to tuning etc
 
ah nice. thanks well i would be changing the cams at some point, but the chance has come for me to buy a set 2nd hand, so could just sit them about for a bit till i get everything together. anyone recommend a tuner in the east anglia area. im guessing tdi, but if there are others..???
