Throttle Shaft 48mm Modified Set
Manufactured SS316 throttle shafts to fit 48mm Bore RB26 Throttles
- RB26 throttle body shaft upgrade
- Bearing journal tolerance's to factory sizes
- To suit 45mm & 48mm bore RB26 throttle bodies ( Used on 45mm throttles the cutouts will tuck into the shaft holes either side of the bores very slightly )
- Cutouts to increase cross sectional area when at wide open throttle
This Kit Includes 3 Shafts
- 1x LH Shaft
- 2x RH shafts
Info
- Enlarging the throttle bores from 45mm bore size to 48mm gives a 13.7 percent increase in cross sectional area however when combined with our modified throttle shafts the flow bench test showed a 28% increase in airflow.
Stock throttle flowed 250cfm @ 28"
enlarged throttle with modified shafts flowed 320cfm & 28"
Calculation 320/250 = 1.28 = 28%
The throttle shaft modification also eliminates turbulence against the throttle blade behind the shaft. providing smoother flow over the shaft. this resulted in the enlarged throttles having the same airspeed at a given test vacuum
Note
We do not provide install data with these shafts, if you are purchasing these make sure you have the correct gear and know-how to carry out the job.
