Ok, I'll admit I don't know much about the 4g15. The extent of my experience with the engine is looking at the one in my bosses' Colt wagon and pronouncing it dead. That being said, excuse my relative ignorance on this topic.

I just got a 1.8L TB along with some other stuff that I bought, and was marveling at how tiny it is. So, I'm thinking the 1.5L TB must be even smaller. I just put a 60mm unit on my Galant, so I have a 52mm one just lying in a box. Could any of the 1.5L guys use it? It's very similar to the Eclipse part. I'll sell it cheap if anyone wants it, or just wants to experiment with it. (I didn't bother putting this in the sales forum, since I'm putting it forth more as an idea than a sales pitch)

Yes the Colt unit is 46mm very tiny I put on a Talon 50mm TB and it really woke the car up not such a large dead spot in the RPM spectrum anymore. Its a good upgrade...

That just sounds like SO much work when you can buy one from the wreckers for $10-15

I agree, go with the 50mm T.B. Sensors are the same, no fuel mods, but be sure to port :D
