I was reading in the sticky that that the 2.3 tb fits the 2200. My ? is what is the difference and what would i gain from it. has anyone done this to their 2200? just asking because i have a 2.3 tb from a 95 in my garage. thanks guys
It should provide a very very small gain, considering the 2200 comes in at 52 mm, and the 2.3 has a 56 mm tb.
Since you already have it, why don't you go ahead and see if it's a direct bolt-on. I've heard from a few people that they have had to mod the tb to get it to fit.

well if i have to mod it its a waste i think i should just get a ported one. another quick question what are the best spark plugs for are cars. i know they are only sparks plugs and there not goig to give me a huge leap in hp. is the ac delco the best to go with?
Hey spiderman i see in your profile you have the quad4 tb. what did you have to do to make it work anything or did it bolt on? thanks
deffinetly get that tb on there, it is worth it. the modifications to it are minimal to get it to fit. all i had to do was get a plastic vacuum teein orderr to reconnect all the 2200 vacuum lines and then grind down part of it (dont remember what it was exactly but it was hitting the manifold) so the plate could open all the way. i also replaced the manifold gasket but that may not be necessary for you. that 4mm did make a noticeable difference for me.
cool thanks that what i was looking for and you said you had to grind? does that mean the tb or the manifold? thanks thats what i wanted to know since i have one laying around.
part of the tb had to be ground down. when you put it on, just snug up the bolts then see if the plate will open all the way, you will see where it hits unless your tb is slightly different from mine. good luck
hey guys that have done it i dont need the brackets or anything do i? i just need the tb and everything else just hooks up to it right. thanks
you do need the 2.3 tb throttle cable bracket
hey dyskord does your tb whistle a little if your listeing under the hood? i have a little whistle when i lightly tape the throtle. but i finally got it on. i had trouble with the tb bracket. how did you mount your bracket
i do have a sucking noise when the throttle is partially open and that is normal, i dont know if that is what you mean. for the bracket, it mounted the exact same way it was on the car it came off from. the brackets might be slightly different depending on if the 2.3 car had cruise control, maybe yours is different from mine
i think our brackets our different but i got it to work and i like it. and yeah i was talking about the whistling noise. its only when its partially open thanks for helping.
