Are the thottle bodies for the Tibby/Elantra 2.0 and 1.8 the same as the one for The Accent, also are they the same for autos and 5spds??? Also what is the stock size for each if they differ?? Anyone... Anyone????? Bueler??? Bueler???uzzled::|
No the accent has a different TB, but the beta TB can be made to fit with little modifications. The Beta TB's are the same sizes for auto and manual I believe, however the accent TB's (at least for the LC versions) differ from auto to manual, the auto tb is about .5 inches smaller then the manual.

That would be awsome spikie.. I was thinking of retro fitting a beta TB to my 97 Accent, that or porting the one I have... Hopefully to give it a little more scoot...:nervous:
i don't remember exactly what has to be done but someone email good insturction to me a while ago.. i think it's still at my other computer.. when i get to it i'll post it for you..
if u want any other pics of them (eg. back view or whatever) just tell me and i'll take a pic since both tb's are sitting in my garage on a shelf...
i'm gonna try and put it in in the summer time hopyfunny when i do my intake.. :rambo:

I swap to the tib tb on my car with much easy. The tb is basically the same only the butterflr is bigger and it doesn't tapper down like a half inch towards the center. The Butterfly is about the same size as the port on my Im. It didn't give me alot of power ... but it did give me throttle response. Also, the fact that its bigger will benifit me longer down the road as i keep removing restriction as i move closer to opeing up all the bottlenects I can. The some moderate boost is in my plans.:rambo::evil:
Accent 1st gen TB : 44 mm diameter
Accent 2nd gen TB : 46mm diameter

Twin TB setup (1.5L or 1.6L TB + 1.8L or 2.0L TB) is like 71 mm diameter TB (my setup)
Twin TB setup (2x 1.8L or 2.0L TB) is like a 76 mm diameter TB
