2.7 TB Vs. 2.5 TB

[chbimmer]

I was wondering if a 2.7 throttle body is the same as a 2.5 liter throttle boddy? i just want to use my ETA TB on a I intake manifold.......any comments?

that would be bad idea. the ETA TB is way smaller than the i, you'd be choking your motor pretty badly.

[chbimmer]

well i have an ETA but i want to do a i intake.....

[nando]

there's no point in using an i intake but restricting it with an ETA throttlebody.

The eta throttle body will fit INSIDE the inner bore of a I TB with room to spare.

the eta throttle body is the same as the euro 2.0 320i ones. I put the 2.5 throttle body on one of my old 2.0 motors, and it did nothing!
